Yesterday one of our staffers brought a member problem to me to decide how to handle it. A woman has been a paying member since 2002 (yep, that’s right) and her credit card is going to be updated and she’s afraid she will have to pay the current membership fee which is well above what it cost in 2002. I told my employee how to handle it so the woman could continue paying the same price but it made me think.
Why would anyone need to be a member of a dating site for more than 6 years?
Surely in that amount of time you could find someone to go out with. The more I thought about it, the more curious I became so I decided to do some investigating and see what she’s been up to.
Sure enough, she joined in 2002 and has written to ….get ready for it… more than 1000 men. Most have written back to her according to the logs. At first I thought maybe she was a professional who was using our site to get customers but I noticed one name in the logs that I recognized so I wrote to him and asked about her. Turns out, she just loves to date. She doesn’t want a relationship that lasts very long because she likes the excitement of a new relationship.
In all the years I’ve been running a dating site, I’d never met a female serial dater like this. I’ve seen a bargeful of men who are afraid of commitment but most women are looking for a more secure relationship.
I was intrigued.
So I wrote to her and thanked her for being such a loyal member of our site and could she indulge me and answer a few questions. Here are the questions and her answers.
How many men have you met in person? More than 250
How many of these men did you meet for a second date? About 20 or 30
How often do you meet men for dates? Every weekend
Do you usually have sex on the first date? It all depends - many times I do but not always
Are you a member at other adult dating sites? No, I keep busy right here and I love the chatrooms
Do you think you’ll ever settle down with just one? Maybe. I’m 42 now and as I get older I might want just one but at the moment I crave variety.
Mr. Flirty keeps telling me that my own views are not the views of every woman and this one has really shaken me. I have a tough time with the first time naked scene so it would be difficult to be with a different man every weekend. Could you date different people every weekend for years?
Have you ever heard of this site? If you haven’t you’re about one in about ten who haven’t. It’s near the top of the Alexa rankings. They’re the folks that keep tabs on all the websites and let you know which sites are most popular.
I was sent the link by someone and I started to have a look around and in just a few minutes I wanted to make a comment. Usually when that happens I try to bite my fingers off because I know I’ve got to put my details in and then wait around for mail to get on a carrier pigeon and then I have to validate the mail and by then I’ve forgotten the name and password. Not so with DivineCaroline.com. They didn’t ask for many details and then POOF I was in. Not only that, but the first page you get to after logging in the first time gives you all the options on what to do next.
