A Review of JDateWrite your own review of JDate! Reviewed By: heybuddy Location: Sex: Male Rating: ***** Date: October 06, 2009 The web site itself is decent in terms of usability. My complaint deals with the people on this site. I've been on/off for about two years and I always go down two paths: Get burnt by the somewhat desirable girls and on a RARE occasion, a shot with an undesirable girl. Yes, even the average looking ones act like Paris Hilton. You send numerous, well thought out emails and maybe your response rate is 2%, if you're lucky! Most take a quick look at your profile, and poof, they move on without a chirp. I have no clue what the attractive, decent sounding women of Jdate are looking for. I imagine most are waiting for absolute perfection. They must have a checklist the size of Texas, and if you don't meet a requirement, cya later! Mind you I'm searching for mid 20's to mid 30's. Which is a clear reflection on today's popular culture and what women value now. I'm no Brad Pittstein, but I'm a good looking, intelligent, well rounded, and caring person looking for a like minded woman. And it seems those characteristics are not valued amongst the young ladies now a days. Based on some of the profiles I've read, I need to try traveling to every continent of the planet and perhaps take up skydiving into volcanoes. Ah.. I see where I've missed out on life.... And you always see the same women on the site, even after several years! You would think such attractive, interesting people would find someone. Well, maybe in some cases they meet their dream stud, and it works for 2 weeks or a month, then when that falls through, back to the web site they flock! I think jdate and other dating web sites are a reflection of our current society (mainly 20 - 35 age group). No sense of morals, values, or of anything good/decent. It's a "ME ME ME" generation where people are raised not to appreciate anything of any value. The few "good ones" are NOT on these web sites or are already taken. It's a sad world folks, and if you think this young generation is bad, just wait till the next! |
