I wrote briefly about thisValentines once before and said i would come back to the topic. Honestly I have a couple new topics that i want to discuss, but they will wait. One such topic is Molly Rodriguez and her well-deserved reaction from Dr Phil when he interviewed her on the show last month. I haven’t written about it sooner because i wanted to watch it a few times and actually give my true moment by moment observations on how this completely backfired in her face. For now, all I have to say is that Dr Phil did a great job in researching, and asking the tough questions that others have not.
Another topic I want to touch on soon is the increasing number of married individuals I am coming across that are completely getting treated like hell by their significant others. Some of the stories I am hearing and seeing people go through are just ridiculous.
But on to why we are here. Dating Sites. It’s February which is known for a few things. President birthdays, Valentines Day Massacre, and of course the month of love…or strong like…or just simple sex with friends that mean a lot to you. I guess it depends on how you define your world and those that are in it.
As some of my loyal readers and friends know, I recently went through a divorce last year. This has led me to explore the world of online dating. I will admit that i wasn’t sure exactly what to think about it at first, but as I gained more experience at using the sites, the more interesting I found it to be.
Why did I go to online dating? I work for an internet company and my experiences there have shown me that people from all around the globe use the internet in so many ways. Shopping, bill paying, news updates, communication, gaming, homework, work, and yes, even dating. My life allows little time for socializing in clubs, and honestly I am so tired of the clubs. I worked security in one for 3 years, and seeing the same guys show up week after week doing the same moves on different girls week after week really became rather embarrassing to watch. Not just the guys. Seeing the same girls come in every week going home with different guys each week….well, either way it was disturbing. So clubs…not for me. I do go to a bar or two rather regularly, and usually the same place, but its always after work on Mondays. We have a group from work that goes and we unwind. I thought I would make the internet work for me, 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week.
How successful have I been? I have met a few girls from the sites that I talk to. One in particular has actually turned into a very close friend. Others I talk to on the phone and we still talk about meeting up, just sometimes the timing isn’t always right or they live just a little bit too far for a last minute date to the movies or dinner.
I wasn’t fortunate to have any special promotions or deals out there when I joined some of these sites. This would be why I am doing this, as i have arranged with some of the sites to be provided with special links that will give you discounts off membership fees, and even some free trials or promotions, that you may not be able to find on their sites if you went there directly. Please keep in mind, in order to utilize any of the offers I provide below, you have to use my link to get them. The offer codes are embedded in the link address which tells the website that you are getting special offer pricing or promo.
I will start with the one I started with which was Yahoo! Personals. They have arranged a link for me to give to my readers that will allow a free trial period. You can get your Yahoo! Personals 7 Day FREE Trial offer. Go try it out!
Some of the other deals for Yahoo! Personals I have been given to pass on are:

Recently Chemistry.com has been all over the media and even had a Network Television study by one of the News Journal Programs i believe it was on ABC. Maybe you have seen them in magazines, or elsewhere, but none the less, the journalists are seeking these folks out and their website to cover their stories on dating. Check out what I snagged from them for you:
