Online Dating Experience 37
Nothing But Bad Experiences
47 year old female from Tennessee

At first I thought this Internet dating thing might be fun. After all, I'm 47, there are no single folks in my church and my employer has a no-dating rule. Where else would I meet people? But it has turned out to be pretty awful.

In one week on Match.com I met two convicted felons -- one who just got out of prison -- two serious substance abusers, and a lot of guys who feel the yardstick of success is measured in motorcycles.

I thought the thing to do was to let my Internet dating subscription expire, to let it die a natural death before I met one more "non-smoker" who hasn't "quite kicked the habit yet."

Then I saw the Match.com debit on my bank draft. What was this? It wasn't even authorized.

It turns out once they have your bank information, the good folks at Match.com thoughtfully re-enroll you every year without your permission unless you head them off and send a notice of resignation. Resignation? How about a white flag? Someone let me off of this thing!
