I am currently single, so I guess this doesn't directly apply to me, but I've met two significant others (one more significant - lived together and all that jazz - and the other less so) through OKCupid. I thought I was ready to start dating again and opened up my profile, but as it turns I'm really not. However, I do figure I'll end up going back to it, when the time is right.

I enjoyed that article. For the record, the guy I met via OKC who I was serious with did not have a problem admitting we met via online dating. The guy that didn't end up being a keeper preferred to hide the fact. That's just a reflection of my preferences, of course, but I think honesty is pretty attractive in a mate to most people, whether it's embarrassing or not.
