This article by Amy Klein appeared last year in the Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles…

It’s long, but definitely worthwhile, and all-too-relatable. It’s titled: True Confessions of a JDate Addict…

An excerpt, for your convenience:

Over the next six months, I receive e-mails from more than 250 men, correspond with about 60, and date about 30 of them. JDating is like a parallel universe, a bustling underground populated by people whose online lives are nearly as demanding as their daily jobs. It requires constant e-mailing, instant messaging, phone calls, meetings, follow-up e-mailing, more meetings and, finally, the messy business of purging failed dates from the system — and getting purged yourself. It’s taking up all my time: I can’t stop looking at the Web site. If dating is a numbers game, surely this will increase my odds.

My numbers are not as impressive as Amy’s. My experience has yielded few emails, and even fewer actual meetings. Anyone else wanna weigh in?
