If not for filipino friend finder services, I probably would have been on very few dates at all.

Just to balance things out a bit, I'll mention my less positive results. I've had profiles on and off for at least a couple years on friendster, and have never gone on a second date. I have gotten excited about email exchanges, and then disappointed by the real life encounter.

Although, part of it (at least) is no doubt my own lackadaisical attitude about being single (I kind of don't care), which means that if I'm not really excited, I just don't want to bother. If not for online services, I probably would have been on very few dates at all.
