I was having my regular phone conversation with my honey today when he mentioned about the dating website where we first met online. The website name was MuslimMatrimonialNetworks.com.

He said it was bought over by Muslima.Com. I couldn’t believe it!

So tonight, I decided to go to “our website” and found that announcement. So sad….

My honey told that maybe because the economy crisis that is happening. The membership fee may increase.

I loved that website. Not just because I met my soulmate, but also the website’s lay out, navigation and services were the best compare others.

I was a member of Muslima.Com too, but it wasn’t my favorite.

If only I know how much it worths, maybe I can bought that website and continue the noble intention to help people to find their love.

He made first contact through yahoo messenger. Question I asked first: his ID on the dating site. Then I straight went to see his profile, it wasn’t qualified my criteria, e.g. he didn’t put a picture there.

Next thing: I asked him to send his pictures. He sent me four: two were him, one was his mom’s picture, one was his family picture. From that, somehow I concluded that he’s got a warm close family which the same with mine.

My current long distance relationship started from online dating. I have joined several muslim matrimonial websites since October 2006.

Why did I join online dating service?
With the type of job I had at that time, it was difficult to meet someone new, offline. I travel a lot and new people I met were all clients.
Friends and family introduced me to men, but no chemistry. And with the local man’s character, I don’t think I will find the man who has my criteria.
Since I spent most of my spare time online, I decided to consider online dating service in search of my life partner.
My purpose: to get married. Nothing else. I’m tired of living alone and being alone after my parents died and my younger sis got married, I need togetherness. I’ve lost my “home”. Read the rest of this entry »
