Virtu Dating?

Feb 24, 2010 20:45

A few different people have suggested to me to start using a dating site/sites in order to maybe help jump start something of a social life.

I have some reservations about doing something like this though, and they feel important factors.
The first one being that all of the sites that are meant for meeting people and dating, make you pay to contact the members on the site.
Sure you can make a free profile, but what good is that if you can't communicate with other people on the site? It's so stupid. And the cost is like 10-15 a month for the service.

I don't know about other people, but that's a little much to meet people. Plus, I don't have THAT much money coming in, and I'd rather not add another monthly charge to my bill.

Secondly, thanks to my zip code, about 70% of the matches I get are in like Brooklyn and other parts of NYC.
I hate the city. Venomiously. So why would I date people from there?
Simple, I wouldn't.

I keep telling myself that I'll meet someone when I start working fulltime as a teacher, but at times I can't help but to stop and think, am I just fooling myself with that.

The last point is that I'm worried that many of those people are just looking to hook up with attractive other members.
And that's not really what I want.

It's a really confusing situation. And it doesn't have a clear answer, which makes it more depressing.
