Just Say Hi

Filed under: daily life, entertainment, payperpost, websites — newandunusual @ 5:27 pm

Ya know, I met my s/o online. And the person I dated before that, also met online. It wasn’t an Online Dating site like Just Say Hi, though. I’m not in the market for a new date, I have enough trouble with the date I have, but if you’re a gay girl looking for another gay girl they have a woman to woman option. Which I like, because a lot of mainstream dating sites don’t have that option. Hmmm there are a lot of singles in Orlando. Maybe I should encourage my son to use Just Say Hi. This could be mean a whole new life for him. New g/f and a move to the Orlando area.

  1. [...] The whole online dating thing… I never did understand people who believe that dating online is easier than the IRL thing. You spend just as much time and energy on it, although you might do it in different ways: Rather than sitting in a bar accepting or rejecting people, you do it in front of your screen. I had a long distance relationship for a long, long time with I.N. and a lot of it happened online, and I think it can be good and bad. I don’t know anybody who has successfully had a long term relationship after meeting on a dating website. I do know people in long term relationships who met online, although they weren’t on a dating website at the time. (I think that’s the best way to meet somebody, anyway, through shared interests, whether it’s online or IRL.) I’ve idly surfed through a few dating websites and I think most of them have their ups and downs. This dating service review website gives you the chance to check a few of the options out and read about some other people’s experiences and impressions of a few of these sites. It’s a cool idea. I think as more people post reviews the site will become more useful, but it’s already a handy way to get a feel for the kind of people who enjoy a site… Are the comments related to a particular service mostly about how it’s a nice change from the superficial sites or are the comments about all the hot people who want to hook up? Other features that I hope they’ll add later on: A way to rate the costs. From what I hear, dating online can cost a bunch between all the fees and tokens and nonsense you have to buy to send message, see pictures, reply to messages, etc. Something else that would be nice is an indication of who can use a site. Is it heterosexual dating only? A lot of mainstream dating sites don’t have any options for the gay girls and boys out there. Stuff like that might show up as the site grows. This website is a really nice start for somebody wanting to get an idea of where to begin, if online dating is something you’d like to try. Once you’ve tried a couple of sites, go back and post your own reviews to let everybody else know too. [...]

  2. Really great concept. Where did you get this content? Do you write everything yourself?
