Dating Outlook

I mentioned in my previous entry that I didn’t join a dating site because I had friends who were willing to set me up with their male friends if I expressed interest. I never actually said anything, but apparently I had a “desperate” stamp on my forehead and they read it loud & clear. However, if you don’t have friends with single male friends, or don’t have the in-person connections, there are millions of dating sites out there you could join to get to know someone in your area. I found the top six online dating sites through About.com and thought that I’d share them here. I don’t indorse any of them, as I haven’t used them, but everyone needs resources, right?
