"Mike" thought match.com and all of those other pay web sites sucked. So, being an internet geek, he made his own dating site, just for himself.

It worked, and now Mike's happily engaged. But rather than killing the site, he expanded it and opened it up for the public to use, free of charge.



Principles of the site
  1. Be yourself. Your true, honest self.
  2. Be nice - and - flag things that are not nice.
  3. Be smart. Don't meet your date in a dark alley.
* Read the terms of use for complete details, by using this site, you agree to them.
