Most bizarre online dating sites




This site is filled with gothy EMO types who’ll take you to see The Cure and read you Victorian poetry. While you’ll see plenty of eyeliner, lip rings and tattoos on Gothic Match, most members are ordinary people simply looking to connect with someone who appreciates the darker side of life.




Embrace your inner nerd on this dating site for not just Star Trek and Star Wars lovers but all sci-fi fans. Find a fella who shares your Battlestar Galactica zeal, speaks Elvish and wants to attend Comic-Con in matching Spock ears. With a 25:1 male to female user ratio, Trek Passions offers you the pick of the geek litter. Who needs a bad boy when you can have a fanboy?



Date by the book at this spot that pairs partners based on reading preferences. While Alikewise is perfect for serious bookworms looking for a lad who’ll debate the last line of Lolita, more casual readers can connect with guys who share their more general interests like cooking or travel. Browsing a man’s virtual bookshelf—complete with notes on each entry—can reveal a lot about his intelligence, humor and taste, three factors that could help you write your own happy ending.



While discussing politics is taboo on a first date, where you stand is bound to influence your relationship down the road. These two dating sites, Blue State for Democrats and Red State for Republicans, match singles based on a three-part assessment that covers economic matters, foreign policy and social issues. You won’t be bridging the bipartisan gap, but you may find a lifetime running mate.



If long walks with your Jack Russell or couch time with your cat are an important aspect of your daily life, you’ll need a man who understands that your pet is part of the family. Visit Must Love Pets and get your paws dirty: You may just find a pal for Fido, too.



Most dating sites ask about everything from relationship history and religious beliefs to body type and workout preferences. But Same Plate believes the way to the heart is through the stomach. Enter your favorite cuisines along with any dietary restrictions and the site will set you up with a local who shares your culinary lifestyle. Even if it’s not a love connection, at least you’ll get some decent pad thai.



Founded by two Harvard Business School grads, Ivy Date claims to offer up men who are leaders in fields like medicine, business and law. While you don’t have to be an Ivy League alum to use the site, members are screened to make sure they’re smart, interesting and driven.



If you believe that mother knows best, then let her do the matchmaking at Date My Single Kid, a site where parents create profiles and post pictures for their kids. Nervous about letting mom meddle? Consider this: She not only knows you well, but wants you to be happy and is your biggest advocate. Plus, she’s going to stick her nose in your love life regardless so you may as well give her the best tools to work with.



Build houses while laying the foundation for your relationship or restore fisheries to spark an animal attraction at Your Cause or Mine, a free dating site that matches members based on philanthropic interests. Rallying around a common cause creates a low-pressure environment with far fewer of those anxiety-inducing awkward silences frequently found on first dates.


**This next ones for me!!!***



Women who really like bad boys can start a pen pal relationship with this unusual online service. While we don’t advocate dating a convicted felon—or any criminal for that matter—we had to share Meet-An-Inmate to prove that there’s a dating website out there for absolutely everyone, including jailbirds and the girls who want to love them from beyond the bars.

3 Simple rules for dating in 2013


As the new year comes upon us (and many single going into the new year) I have made 3 simple easy to follow rules when it comes to dating in 2013…
1. If he/she can not call he/she is not worth the time.
So many of us get caught up in daily life so much we forget the simple rules. Yes this is the information age and while everything from shopping to company meetings are conducted via text it doesn’t mean your love life should. Any potential suitor wherever male or female that wants your attention should at least have the balls enough to CALL and arrange a date. So rule number 1 is NO TEXT ALLOWED (for setting up dates).
2. Leave boyfriends/ girlfriends/ husbands /wives/ secret gay lovers in the past.
At some point in your new relationship or pre-relationship, you know those awkward dates where you haven’t established what exactly you two are, well sometime the conversation may shift to why you are single? or what happened to your EX will come up. A brief “we didn’t work out” or a simple “we found out we weren’t compatible” will suffice. Bottom line is leave the past in the past. Many relationships are ruined by you yourself comparing your ex. to your “next” and no matter how you slice it you don’t win. If your ex was a loser you “next” may come to think your broken and no one wants a broken person for the new year. If the reverse happens, meaning you tell all of these great stories about your ex your “next” will feel they can never stack up.
3. Establish what you are as soon as possible.
This one should be a no brainier ironically it’s not. Too many women think just because you see someone everyday or talk to them every-night that they are in a relationship. Well I have news for you, you’re not IN a relationship until you both can conform your IN a relationship. This one tip saves future couples a lot of time, also many men wonder this question as much as women do but are often to nervous to ask. Bringing this topic to discussion ASAP can eliminate a lot of misunderstandings  However if you are seeing someone that can’t talk about this. You should be seeing someone else. If the person you’re seeing can’t commit to a simple little title early. The chances are slim to none that they will commit to a BIG title later.
