Must Love Horses
I met my ex husband years and years ago on an online dating site. That was back when it was a little less accepted as a means to meet people, but I was brand new to Florida and not sure how to meet men outside of my office since I was adverse to going to bars to do so. It worked out fine, I met a lot of people, and I found that in general the quality of those men was astoundingly high.
Online dating is so commonplace now that I find most dating sites to be too widely focused. With so many people signed up at any given site, I am having trouble narrowing the field and have given up for now. Of course that actually has more to do with the fact that I’m not really interested in dating again right now 
Anyway, my theory is that the dating sites that really work are those that focus in on one set of interests or attributes. Religious or regional focuses are good. Hobbies or professions are great as well. I was looking at EquestrianCupid.com as a great example. Quite specifically, it is a huge site dedicated to making romantic connections between horse lovers. You get absolutely FREE sign-up. You can go ahead and set a profile right now and if a Gold Member happens to like your profile, they will be able to contact you and you can begin communicating. I love this little detail. It reminds me of how dating sites operated back in the day, before financial profit was all the companies were interested in.
The site also offers chat, forums, and some very good safety features. Plus, who wouldn’t be inspired by reading some of the real life equestrian cupid success stories on the site?
