Bravo Bella!!

I had to laugh at this as I read for it is true with so many dating networks now. Many years ago I tried it One time was enough. Thank God you meet at a place where there are many people. I had to get away and out of that first meet (it was not even a date) and that was it for me. Your commentary on this online dating is mostly of truth. I love it!

ps Now there is a site now I heard that is called Plentyoffish.com and it is free. A friend at work met someone really nice on there.

WHo knows anymore?

For me it may happen at that good ole grocery store:)

Great write again Bev!

    Thank you, Magics. I'm busting a gut at Plentyoffish.com. OMG, you can't make up this stuff. Thanks for your generous review. I really appreciate getting your thoughts on my writing - very helpful and gratifying. Just a suggestion, hang around the grocery store section where they carry the dog and cat items with a picture of your cute pet, wink wink. Warm regards, Bev

Good morning, Writingfundimension! This is a great piece. Loved the humor. The title is clever. You do an excellent job of describing the various dating services and the situations that arise out of them. I liked the part in which you describe the hands and impressions they give. I also enjoyed your comments about dates arriving separately versus by car. Your last paragraph did contain good advice about using Internet dating service. Be careful out there! is good advice for those people, as it is for police officers. Well-organized piece free of any grammar, spelling and other errors. judi

    Thank you, judi. Hah, you and I must be thinking of the same cop drama - NYPD Blue? I really appreciate your splendid review. Thank you for the thoroughness of your read and time you take to respectfully review my writing. Your support is invaluable to me. Warmest regards, Bev

Writing,

I loved this piece. I did the dating sites over a period of several years on and off. Had maybe 3 dates and, one which was fun for a couple of months. You didn't mention money spent on these ventures. Nor did you mention the weeks at a time you got no response from anyone. They promise that you will have a date by the next weekend but then offer the service free if you haven't found anyone in six months. . .makes you wonder doesn't it?

Once again I have enjoyed your stories. Good writing.

    Hi, livelylinda. Thank you for supplying the information that I did not provide. Frankly, I'm shocked at the insights you share. That sounds more like a scam than I even thought originally. So appreciate your stopping by to read and your generous review. Kind regards, Bev

I go at least one step farther than you, Bev. I think each of you should bring along a friend. Meeting a stranger is tough even when you both know a third party who thinks you're "perfect for each other". Can't imagine meeting what is essentially an electronic pick-up without a buffer - preferably armed! :D Nancy

Good advice, Bev. It works, too. One of my personal bias is "you know" when I hear these words, I wonder how they know, "I know." LOL. I never enjoyed dating. I was always glad when the date ended. True gentlemen and ladies aren't easy to find. When dating you need to listen and to ask a lot of questions. When you do this, you can learn a great deal about a person's character.

Have not seen this as we don't get American TV. But we have similar ads on TV. Completely agree with you: it is better to meet the normal way. Great right.
