If you met your husband on an online dating site

[kitkat1502]

Which site did you use? My BFF has been single for a little over a year and she's getting down. She uses Bumble and just recently OKC but at least with Bumble it was a whole lot of excitement in the beginning, but then after meeting it fizzled. Curious to hear stories and if the paid sites tend to work better?

Yahoo Personals circa 2000 😂😂

[W.T.Faulkner]

I met my husband on OKCupid, and SIL and BIL met on Match.com.

I think Match is probably a better bet for more established people, if that makes sense. I was JUST out of college when I did OKCupid, we were both broke AF, and I just wanted to go on a date when I met my husband. lol

[bugandbibs]

Everyone I know who has met a spouse used Match.

[wowhead]

AOL Personals way back in 1999 😜

[usuallylurking]

We met on match.

[lilafowler]

Pours one out for Yahoo dating.

[cabbagecabbage]

I know two happily married couples who met on Craigslist. Literally anything is possible.

[kitkat1502]

My dad met his wife on Yahoo dating too lol.

I've heard good things about Match. I think she might have a little hang up about having to pay, in a way like 'why should I have to pay to meet someone.'

That's interesting. I feel like I'd rather use a pay site because I feel like the free sites are more for hooking up.

My BFF met her H on eharmony.

H's BFF met his wife on Match. I also know one other couple who just got engaged, and I'm pretty sure they met on Match too.

Ditto, except circa 2005

I met my boyfriend on Match

[roxysoxy]

I met my husband on Match. That was back in 2002, I'm not sure what people use these days.

[sunnysally]

Another Match made marriage here.

[Deleted]

He's not my husband until February 9th But we met on Plenty of Fish. I did not expect to find a husband there, I was just looking to meet some new people and dip my toes back into the dating waters.

My BFF met her H on eharmony. I think you can meet on any of the sites, it probably doesn't matter all that much. Eharmony lets you start with a lot more information, but I'm not completely convinced that's necessary. I like that I got to meet my FI without a ton of lead up to the first date - it made it very low pressure.

[jellymankelly]

He initially contacted me on Match. I wasn't interested, because he didn't fit my criteria at the time (He was never married and 40 - I figured he wouldn't "get" my divorce/custody situation. I was wrong.). A year and a half later, I saw him at a bar and had this overwhelming feeling of "I need to know this person," so I tried looking him up on a couple of sites. I ended up finding him and contacting him through OKC, and we got married 3 years later.

Same

[chachacha]

I used OKCupid but soon found out it was mostly hookups, which wasn't my intention.

I then went onto Match. The idea of paying was a slight turn off at first, but it gave me more reassurance I would meet someone financially invested in making a good, lasting connection. In the end, I met my husband and we've been together 4+ years. 

[youhadmycuriosity]

Craigslist! I was... Not expecting to "meet my husband". Lol!

[ax2]

Plenty of Fish 8 or so years ago!

[kicks]

We don't want to get married ever really, so not my husband but we met on OKC.



I didn't do serious online dating 2 years ago as I preferred to meet people in real life. But I enjoyed tinder and made a good guy friend from it. I did Eharmony for free to check it out and didn't like it.

[circa1978]

Match. My BFF also met her H there. My brother met his wife on OKC.

[lobster]

I met my husband on Plenty of Fish about 7 years ago. I was about to call it quits because of all the creepers I was wading through when we met.
My brother also met his wife on Plenty of Fish.

[sawyerthedestroyer]

Plenty of Fish. I met a lot of duds on there too and was pretty checked out by the time H came along.

[imimahoney]

My two best friends met their H's on a dating site.

They both used JDate. I also know several other Jews who used it with great success. But that obviously only works if you are a Jew, willing to convert to Judaism or just want to marry a Jew.

[jeaniebueller]

My friend met her H on match.com. My sister met her H through a meet up group.

Eharmony in 2004
