I might actually prefer to date Jewish women if it is ok with you!?! Actually I may be doing the Jewish community a service and I seem in demand in some way also having a Bachelors Degree,a quick wit, and an outgoing personality. My gripe with J-Date is after your subscription lapses, the other members send messages to non-subscribers thinking they are messaging a fellow member with the ability to respond. Free members mainly fill the roles yet they aren't functional and if I was paying for such a site at least I should be informed about this or who is a full member. Shame on J-Date for misrepresenting themselves and collecting all that money! If a guy doesn't answer, he's a cheap date and isn't paying for the service - or is way too smart to shell out those high fees. I believe they allowed Instant Messaging to non-subscribers in the past but recently took that away also upon their last software upgrade. Again, without informing members. Just try and look up these details in their HELP or FAQ section.

And guess what her now husband is someone she met on JDate. I met my husband at a party and he wasn't looking for a wife that night. But he looked like prime husband material to me, so I made it happen. Moral of the story, don't be too picky about what someone marked or didn't mark at a given moment. I don't think you can judge anyone by anything less that some kind of conversation or interaction (messages). By the way my husband and I studies in the same education in the same field. We even work in similar professions but we never talk those things at home. Oh my sister and me always had a great time when she showed me her JDate account.

I always wonder this question out of curiosity, because most people I know meet someone through family, friends, work, classes, etc; that is, settings where they have the chance to be close to someone for sometime and observe them, thus ruling them eligible or not. I'm not saying that this is right or wrong; I'd like to open the discussion up to how people meet other people in general, if possible.
