Can you find love Online? Some experts are now saying that Internet Dating may not be all that it is cracked-up to be.
Last week the Association for Psychological Science released a study that says that finding love through an algorithm may not be anymore of a sure thing than those traditional methods.
Great. Now what? You haven’t met the love of your life at the gym, in the bakery or the dreaded singles bar. Now the experts come out and tell you that your efforts online may not be any better.
Crap! Seriously?
Well, what if I told you that Online Dating is recommended by The Most Influential Expert in the History of Civilization?
That’s right, friends. Mom. Online Dating is recommended by Mom. Now how’s that for an expert?
Mom told us that chicken soup is comforting – It Is.
Mom told us that there were no monsters under the bed. There weren’t.
Mom promised that our broken hearts would heal. They do.
And now, Mom is the living example of how wonderful romance can be – found Online.
Online Dating Experts Mom & Heidi Lee
Yep. My Mom has been meeting delightful men on SeniorPeopleMeet.com and having a ball doing so. And this past weekend, PC and I had dinner with her and her handsome new beau.
Mom was radiant, and her romantic-interest is clearly smitten. And my Mom – she is a 71 year old dynamo – unbelievable lady. And her guy – funny, clever and a perfect gentleman.
The best thing though, he asked whether he was a Toad, a Frog, or her Prince Charming. I’d have to say – smart enough to wonder must make him a frog at the very least.
Go Mom!
And Go Online Dating! Friends and Citizens of the Toad Kingdom, there will always be experts in favor of it and experts against it. The important opinion, though, is yours. If it feels good and makes you happy – then do it.
As Mom would say, follow your heart, Dear. But make sure you carry cab fare just in case.
Now you know who recommended it to me. Thanks Mom!
Warm Regards,
Heidi Lee

If you don’t put effort into a relationship, in person or online, you won’t get anything out of it. The internet connects us but also provides some ability to shape what we present. Those who are successful connecting online start by sharing the whole package of themselves, good and bad with someone who does the same. Present only the good side and the other will feel deceived.
Relationships take a whole lot more than honesty, but it’s a huge start in the right direction.
Exactly, Nelle. The whole idea – do what works for you and then build a relationship based on honesty. The only Expert that matters is you
Great to see you here!
Hi Heidi! Your mom is so cute! Good for her!
Saw your EH article – great!
Curious to hear your thoughts on “favourite-ing” or the “-insert name here’ wants to meet you!” functions on some of the sites. I don’t personally use these kind of contact initiation mehtods, I feel it’s it’s a bit of a ‘lazy way’ (passive agressive even, maybe) to make contact. But would like to hear the expert’s take on it!

Ah … yes … The “favoriting” thing. Hmmmph … Good question, and I most certainly do have opinions. Let me take some time and get an article up for you. Basically, there are 2 good reasons to use it, and a whole lotta bad reasons to abuse it. I’ll get back to you
