[QUOTE="Merkuri, post: 2979983, member: 41321"] [b]OKCupid[/b] Try [url]www.OKCupid.com[/url]. It has ads and accepts donations, but otherwise it's completely free. You don't have to worry about them charging your card without your knowledge, because you don't need to give them a card! I joined OKCupid a few years ago at the end of my last job. After chatting with a guy (yes, I'm female) online for a few months I went out on a date with him and have been in a wonderful relationship ever since. We just had our two-year anniversary at the beginning of this month and we've been living together for almost a year. Never looked back. :) OKCupid works by asking you a series of multiple-choice questions (most of which are submitted by users and approved by the OKCupid staff). You give your own answer, then you select how you think your ideal mate would answer, and then you select how important the question is to you. It then compares your "ideal mate" answers with other users, weights the questions according to your "importance" score (so questions that aren't as important to you don't affect your score as much) and gives you a percentage of how much that person "matches" your ideal mate. They do the same in reverse (compare your answers to the other person's ideal mate's answers) and average the two scores to get your "couple" score. The more questions you answer, the better matches you get. It'll only count questions you've both answered. Generally, scores above 80% are someone you'd probably want to go out with. I believe my BF and I had an 88% or 87% match. It has a lot of other stuff you can do on the site, but that's the meat of it. And unless they've changed drastically in the couple years I've been away, it's completely free. [/QUOTE]
