Online Dating?
I am seriously considering joining the subscription services of Match.com. I have already created the free profile, but have yet to fully commit to actually paying for a subscription (which would allow me to actually email other people & be emailed). I’m debating for a few reasons. First off, my coworkers are telling me that I’m too young for it and I should be going out to meet people, not sitting alone at home. On the other hand, I have a few friends who are/were on various dating websites, and while some are not having the best of luck, others have been very lucky (ie: I know two couples who met on a dating website and are now engaged). Also, a few friends have mentioned how fun it is to just join… how receiving messages is an ego-booster and self-esteem raiser. Which, as we all know, I could certainly use. Although, at the same time, what if I join and get no messages and no luck? I’m fairly certain that such disappointment will bring me to new lows. But, it could be fun just to get back out there and meet people… if not for a relationship, than at least for the experiences.
Sigh. Decisions. Any suggestions or input?
