I'm Done With Internet Dating

OPW -- Nov 9 -- I asked a friend in Silicon Valley about his experience using internet dating and here's what he said. "I don't have much faith in them, and I have not searched for new alternatives as it is difficult to know what is good and what is not. Especially ones just displaying old profiles, there's no response to my emails, and the sheer ratio of men to women is just so lopsided. I have seen it at 30 to 1, or even best case it has been 12 to 1. It is so sweet for women to go out and date. Good women, they just don't date online because the online dating scene is so polluted. It's just so frustrating and gives a low hit rate. You get what you pay for. I for one would pay more for a better return. I think I am more into social events nowadays." Please advise my jaded friend. Your comments please. - Mark Brooks
