There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Still want to know - people recommend match.com or Yahoo Personals or what?

I am looking for comparative analysis and people that have used personals sites and have anecdotes, etc. Thanks in advance. I need a date!

Update:

Seeking stories, why one is better than the other, which sites to avoid and why, craigslist, myspace, and so forth...

    I had success on Match.com (the only site I've tried). The only compaint is that people aren't always honest about what they want. Either they pretend that they want something serious, when they just want a fling or vice versa.

    If you go the online dating route, I suggest that you meet people right away. It sucks to develop a connection with someone only to realize that the chemistry was imagined when you meet face to face.

    Good Luck

    Hiya' Peter, i would say eharmony.Otherwise match.com. Hard to believe u need a site..good luck Q T !

  • they work as long as both parties are totally honest. I met my wife on TRUE.COM and we have never been happier. before we met in person we exchanged emails for a week, then we exchanged phone calls for another week(they averaged 3 hours in length). Our 1st phone call was 4.5 hours, it was as if we just clicked. Plus True.com weeds out all the people who have criminal records...they do an extensive background check....hope this helps and HAPPY HUNTING FOR LOVE

    hey there...not too sure about "date sites", but coming from someone also in the psychology field.....it can get kinda "hairy" out there!

    try somewhere local to hang out.....i never really had too much luck on there...match.com isn't too bad though...good luck!

    eHarmony seems to get the best results.
