Match.com Review #6 by Melissa on April 12th, 2010 at 9:24 PM CDT

Name

I only had my match.com account for one month. My friend helped me make it and she INSISTED that I talked to at least 5 new men a week until I met someone I really liked. I had pretty much given up on ALL MEN after my ex-husband who was horrible to me and our 2 children. So anyways, I did like she said and I only met one super creepy guy that I had to "escape" from...leave him at the restaurant where we met. The rest of the men I met seemed to be normal guys. Nice guys. Just not a good match for a single mom like me. Then it was the day before my month ended and I was going to cancel my account when I got an email from a man I actually went to high school with but never knew (it was a big high school). We hit it off via email immediately. Then about two weeks later we met for lunch and that was the end of life as I knew it. We dated 15 months before he proposed and were married three months later. That was over 2 years ago that we met and he is the absolute man of my dreams and the father of my children...He is adopting them. I just can't explain how wonderful joining match turned out for me. I realize I may be a rare story, but I still wanted to share it!!!

Just 2 months after signing up with Match.com I was engaged. Extremely user friendly, most ladies are courteous and polite.

I’m a member of Match.com and think it is the best site around. Their format is incredibly refined so as to make finding your match quick and easy. Match accomplishes this in several ways. First, they allow up to 10 photographs (yes, looks are part of the "chemistry thing" for many of us). Secondly, they have members post much critical information right up front, such as: -are you married, single, divorced, separated, or never married? -how many children do you have and where do they live? -what are your smoking or drinking habits? -what pets do you have? -what age range are you looking for? -where are you on the liberal/conservative spectrum of politics? -what is your general physique? -what is your religious preference? -what are your interests? (very important information to me!) -what are your exercise habits -what is your income range? (Optional) -what is your ethnicity? -what are your favorite things? -what do you do for fun? Also importantly, Match.com's first section permits you to describe who you are and what you’re looking for in a match. To me, this section is very valuable. It allows you to speak from your heart and be creative in how you say it. If you decide to join Match.com, I would encourage you to give this section some real thought and time. After all, this is that "important first impression!" If you must, compose it on Word Perfect and then copy and paste it into the Match section. Your time will be well spent. Matches are generated according to how well your profile matches other members’ profiles. You are then sent a list of potential matches and the Match.com format allows you to quickly sort through the profiles to find those that really spark your interest :) If one of you doesn’t see the potential for a match, then there are polite options for declining communication. That is the expected to happen to us all, of course. Take heart, though, if we are patient enough, the “right one” just might come along looking for you! If you and a match do express mutual desire to communicate, then communication is allowed to be very free-flowing.
