After a year and a half of searching here,
there, and everywhere I met my gf on
webdate.com 4 months ago.

It's free, and better than some sites I
paid good money for!

I think I asked about this one a couple months ago and someone (Eric maybe?) told me it's mainly a sex site. Has anyone else had good/bad experiences with webdate? The free aspect definitely appeals :)

bleck!

I just went to webdate.com and did a search for guys in my area. Waaaaaaaaayyyyyyy too many cheesy guys with their shirts off, posing in a towel, and with creepy names like Malewhore, DirkDiggler, HOT4U just to name a few. Those were in the first 3-4 pages, too! Lots of Match guys there who, by now, feel as familiar as my own family members from seeing them so much.

Could just be a Maine thing, though. Maybe in other areas it is better?

I just looked in my area. Never seen a worse set of pictures. I guess the people aren't bad looking - it's just that the photos are all hazy webcam pictures.

There isn't much in my area either. But a few months back I checked it out and found a couple of men who piqued my interest, so I joined. Evidently I didn't interest them though. But, a very nice looking guy did contact me, we emailed for a few days, set a date to meet and........he ghosted...**Poof**...never to be heard from again. LOL

I looked there for months so I didn't say it was
easy! I just liked webdate since I met my gf there,
she was only the 2nd connection I made there.

My point was I tried many different things, 5 min.
dating, chat rooms (yuck!), paid sites, etc. I even
looked into things like Matchmaker International
which charges $1000 with no guarantees!

But the best thing was a free site. And I was just
about to give up for awhile...

Oops, looks like it's for US only, as it asks for zip code. On the brighter side, I have not increased my rejection rate. Yeehaw!!
