Chapter 12:

OK Cupid

Far and away my favorite site.

I stayed away for years because a friend had such a bad experience with a man she met there. My experience was the total opposite of that, but then again, by the time I got to OK Cupid I was a bit of an Internet dating savant. As you will be by the end of this book.

On this site, you can answer really fun questions which they then match against other people's answers so you know if you are compatible. I highly recommend answering at least a hundred of these. No, you don't have to do it all the first night. Just do 20 questions a day for a week and you're there. The more questions you answer, the better matches they can suggest for you.

They also have a meter on everyone's page showing how likely they are to respond to your email. I found that helps take a little of the pressure off you, because you know what you're getting into.

There are lots of new people each week. I don't know if they just keep showing you new people or if the site is growing that fast, but the continual fresh faces were nice to see. Plus, the profiles are consistently well-written, the best of any site I frequented.

They also tell you what percentage of a match you are with whatever person you're looking at. I didn't find it to be all that accurate, but it was a fun conversation starter. (Again, there is no substitute for actual chemistry.) They get this number by matching how you answer the questions, so get going!

Also, I read an article about this site and its two founders. They're married to each other, but still keep active profiles on the site and continue to go out on dates to see how the site is working. That's incredibly cool, and pretty impressive, right?
