dating club

Judy Conti, of Alexandria, Va., is a pro-life Democrat and a lawyer who runs a nonprofit organization advocating for low-wage workers. Frustrated with the Washington-area dating scene, she was definitely ready for marriage in 2002 when she considered online personals. Several acquaintances had tried them; some had explored specialized race--or faith-based dating services. "I knew four different people who married folks they met on J-Date [a Jewish singles site], and a few who met on Black Planet, a few on Match.com," she said. "I had doubts, and thought, 'You have to be desperate to look for a date on the Internet,' but by that time it had lost the negative connotation because it had been around for a while." After six months on Match.com meeting men who grilled her on her SAT scores or detailed the playlists from every Bruce Springsteen concert they'd ever attended, Ms. Conti quit Internet dating--or so she thought. By 2003, Ms. Conti, then 34, was considering Plan B: adopting a child on her own. She gave Internet dating one last try, and this time she signed up with Catholic Singles, hoping an affinity site would help her meet prospects whose values were more closely aligned with hers.
