I tried online dating as well (but I am male so it is a little bit different [it is a lot harder for guys like me]). I'm on 4 different sites as we speak. I've been on match.com for 4 months and I haven't gotten a single response yet. I swear to God every single profile reads like this:

"I'm not looking for a fling. I'm looking for a guy who knows what he wants in life. If you don't know then don't even bother emailing me. I couldn't live without my dog. I like hiking, jogging, yoga, and reading."

I swear to God that is every profile I look at.
