Being single, it seems I am forever on a quest for ''Mr. Right''. Due to the type of job I have, I really don't get to meet anyone at work, and the town I live in is really small.
I've met some nice people on the internet, but most of them live so far away from me that I am hesitant to even begin a relationship with them.
I discovered Dream Mates last week, and I am enjoying it immensely!
Dream Mates is an on-line personal ad service. It's free to join and free to place an ad. For women, it's also free to answer any ad. Men have to purchase credits and the first time you answer a new ad, it takes away one of your credits. However, men can receive as many answers as they wish! You can search for mates by city, state, or country!
In the world of internet dating, we have to be safe. Let's face it, there are a LOT of wierdos out there. Dream Mates does a fantastic job of keeping your personal information private, until you want to reveal it.
First you have to decide what type of relationship you are looking for: Casual Dating, Long-Term Romance, or ''Intimate Encounters''. At registration, you create your profile. You may enter in as much or as little information about yourself as you wish, such as:
Personal information about yourself can include everything from the basics such as height and weight to fitness, religion, and whether or not you have/want children. Other information includes:
Activities that you enjoy
Sports that you enjoy watching and/or playing
Forms of entertainment that you enjoy
Other hobbies or interests of yours
You can also enter in a self-written description of yourself to include in any other information you wish.
After you have made your profile, it's time to make the description of your Dream Mate! The same options used to describe yourself can be used in describing your Dream Mate. You can choose as many or as few options as you wish. Want a non-drinker? Catholic? Muscular? Professional? It's all up to YOU!
Dream Mates goes out of it's way to help keep you safe. Messages you receive are not sent to your personal email address, but instead to a mailbox they have created for you.
As a matter of fact, in your first email, you are not allowed to give away your email address or a website address. The message will not go through. The person you write to will know nothing about you except what is on your profile until you choose to reveal it. If you happen upon a creep, you can block him/her, and no further messages from them will reach you.
I have only been with this a few days, and I have already met two really nice guys! If you are single and looking, I would suggest you give Dream Mates a try! Your perfect match may well be there looking for too!
