    There is another article about an Indian dating site named TwoMangos or something like that. In the article it says that the new site uses a model much like JumpDates where you need points to contact people. This was news to me. I thought that JumpDates was 100% completely free. This new points system that we now have, at some point in the future are we going to need those points to contact people?

  1. David says:

    Interesting. None of those five things would bother me.

  2. kethat says:

    VERY INTERESTING

  3. Matt says:

    Yeah, women having more pictures and doesn’t mind staying at home versus going makes me no difference, but definitely no drama…

  1. steve says:

    right on, it obvious

  2. David says:

    Staying up all night having sex before a competition is bad for you? We had to conduct a study to show this?

  3. KIM says:

    NOW THAT IS INTERESTING

  4. Luke says:

    It really is interesting.

    SEXTING IS A WAY TO FEEL OUT WHT U AND UR PARTNERS
    ZONES ARE

  1. David says:

    I read that diamonds are very common and very cheap. The diamond mines hoard the diamonds to artificially increase the rarity so that they can charge more money for them.

  2. nensi says:

    I agree with David, if it is a real diamond ring it will be great. In my country the tradition is to give the ring of grandmother which are precious because are handmade.

  3. me me says:

    It was either Nero or King Tut. My answers seem as qualified and more pointed than yours.

  4. Richie002 says:

    Diamond rings are girls best friends.. And I agree to David because diamond rings are the best rings to be used in marriage ceremony.

  5. suzana_20012 says:

    ring indicating that the person wearing it is engaged to be married, especially in Western cultures.Conventionally, the woman’s ring is presented as a betrothal gift by a man to his prospective spouse while he proposes marriage or directly after she accepts his marriage proposal. It represents a formal agreement to future marriage.After marrying, the couple may wear both engagement rings and wedding rings, or if they prefer, only the wedding rings. Some brides have their engagement and wedding rings permanently soldered together after marriage.

  6. Jantonio says:

    This is all part of a ritual generally accepted in the West. Somehow it’s an anchor on a day that turns out to be unforgettable.

  1. it is more security for both parties.

  2. David says:

    Most people don’t have so much info online that you can just Google them and find out that they are lying.

  1. David says:

    The article says “However, most of the experts that denied the fact that just because you are on an online dating sites looking for a date or a life partner means you are not able to find it in the real world.” The sentence makes no sense whatsoever. Maybe they were trying to say “Most of the experts agreed that just because you are on an online dating site looking for a date or a life partner does not mean you are not able to find it in the real world.”?

  2. Jantonio says:

    In my view, online contacts represent an extension of your contact possibilities. Being online is the chance to be in contant with people who naturally would not be possible.

  3. GoldenSmile says:

    I definitely disagree with online dating meaning “defeat”. I think the Internet is a great alternative to dating. At least, you are able to choose a person to get to know before they actually speak…..I found that guys have more confidence online in stepping up to the plate and striking a conversation.

  4. shah alam says:

    Virtual dating service is important now in this world its a time demands. before internet it was impossible to find or make friendship with the unknown person any where in this world,but due to internet most of the people are so nearer to each other……………………………..

  5. kevrow says:

    on line dating can be a good thing. but why is there a lot of sites that when you join they send you lots of messages. from people that wish to contact you. then when you pay for your membership to read them there is no more. it can be a good thing but you can get taken for a lot of cash.

  1. Mark says:

    The thing about relationships and other stuffs involved is about been real with situations and knowing how to adjust when you need to.

  2. enoughcry says:

    Relationship is a long journey on it own…
    It should be about trust and understanding…To make it work,Both parties have to be ready to try give in their best to make up and not break ups.Letting go of ones pride is nothing..if only it is for a good coarse or reason…So lovers should try not to be guided with or by their pride especially in relationship…

  3. davidtoad says:

    wow, a disturbing look at things.

  4. I can see this stuff making sense just a shocker on how many believe they could get away with it that they would do it tho

  5. Marlagail says:

    I know women cheat, but I choose not to ever. I believe in being faithful to my man.

  6. Rsoe says:

    Cheating is not ok in my book. If a man/woman does this then the relationship was never meant to be.

  7. michelle says:

    i dont support cheating in a relationship and ever will i do.. I love it wen both partners in a relationship are truthfull to each other. That how a relationship work out and last longer..

  8. Jumpdates says:

    Well said “Michelle”. Cheating is universally unexpected (Outside this universe too)

  1. vinod gautam says:

    Single parent hood is a really tough phase in one’s life. One has to give his/her children the love of bother mother and father. Hats off to single parents.

  3. David says:

    You should definitely disclose it before the first date.

  4. Marlagail says:

    Yes you should let someone know before you decided to meet.

  5. Rose says:

    Definitely disclose before the first date

  6. brenda says:

    i think mentioning u have children is a good first step. some might not want children of their own and wouldnt be comfortable around yours. its good to know before they r introduced to your children.

  7. michelle says:

    i think it proper to say if one has a kid yet or not.

  8. banjee says:

    Disclose before the first date. It will helpful for both

  1. zinc-1 says:

    g dfdfgdfg fdgd

  2. OGsmoke1971 says:

    you can say that, but the statistics show women initiate almost all divorces. 60% plus the men who are forced to divorce because the woman cheated or moved out equals 90% of divorces. So if you’re saying its not rocket science then it must mean almost all men know but are not giving it to them, in which case I call B.S.! It tells me no matter what the man does, women are going to make up a reason to break it off. Saying most men know and don’t give it to them would be generalizing men, and we all know, you can’t generalize. It has to be something else.

  3. hunkyi says:

    Divorces cases are oftened initiated by women as they are not happy in their married life. Some husbands are so cruel that they regularly beat up their wives and other women are mentally totured. I think men should also respect the liberty and sheer existance of women. It is a woman who gives birth to men. Married women should be respected and be kept satisfied in their lives.
    thanks

  4. David says:

    Arguments about money will definitely lead to divorce.

  5. cindy says:

    so would being unfaithful

  1. David says:

    This is nuts! You do NOT give gifts on Thanksgiving unless you think bringing a pumpkin pie is a gift! Who was the idiot that decided to turn Thanksgiving into Christmas? Not for me! Not going to happen.

  2. cindy says:

    never heard of gifts on thanksgiving

  3. Michelle says:

    It certainly depends on giving gift is an option to you or you want to give it from the heart. People who think giving gift is not their style of celebrating thanks giving should read this.

  1. Brenda says:

    thats a lovely thing to do.

  2. David says:

    You can do anything you want to do on Black Friday.

  3. cindy says:

    i agree with that

  4. Louise says:

    It could happen

  1. [...] To date movie over weekend with your girlfriend [...]

  1. David says:

    OK, people use Google to search for dating sites. LOL

  1. dcole050401 says:

    Sing date? What? Huh? LOL

  1. [...] 3. Why not some fun activity Many dating experts will discourage you from doing anything too active during the first date, however, you can learn a lot from each other when you are spontaneous and engaged in some kind of light activity. Meetup at a bar and play some darts while you are at it, or take your tablet and pull out one of those great free apps such as Paintology and sketch something together. [...]

  1. Marlagail says:

    I think how you act and respond says how you feel.

  2. dcole050401 says:

    This article is about article? LOL

  1. David says:

    Funny you should mention tablets. Many believe the desktop and laptop computers are already obsolete because of tablets. Personally, I will never buy a tablet or stop using my desktop and laptop.

  2. Marlagail says:

    I think free dating sites will only grown i nthe future.

  1. David says:

    Jumpdates went up in the rankings? Good! Maybe now some real women will start sending me messages. So far, out of literally hundreds of messages received, not one of them has been from a real woman!

  2. Marlagail says:

    I’ve used some of the mentioned sites and have enjoyed the dates, and I haven’t paid high fees.

  1. David says:

    I laughed when they mentioned attention spans getting shorter! LOL

  2. Marlagail says:

    I find this very interesting.

  3. fiestynshy says:

    yes what they said

  1. David says:

    I hate Facebook. I log in maybe once a year.

  1. David says:

    Zoosk is one of the worst sites.

  1. dcole050401 says:

    Finding a free dating site is not easy. Every site says that they are free. 99.99% of them turn out to NOT be free.

  1. David says:

    Yum! Chocolate! Toblerone is my favorite.

  1. dcole050401 says:

    A website published pictures of many AGs that are better looking than her. LOL

  2. shayan says:

    It’s natural process that any man is attracted by her beauty.

  3. vicky says:

    its nice and good

  4. mayur says:

    well traced….an Indian connection..why don’t Obama says this

  5. mainlyme says:

    I think its great.. and who cares alongs it wasn’t disrepectful.

  6. dcole050401 says:

    If the worst thing that this president was doing was flirting, I would be much, much more happy!

  7. K.G Krishnan says:

    It is unwise to assume that anyone is flirting with the woman he comes across in his llife. It is narrow mentality and typical of south indian mind-set. Let us be broad minded. we are in 21st century! come on!!!
