I was an airline pilot living in Las Vegas, and could basically commute anywhere, so I was looking at Yahoo! Personals profiles mostly on the West Coast.

I was on Yahoo! Personals for quite some time and met many nice people through the years -- many of whom have become good friends -- but I had not found that one special person who I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.

In April 2005, after moving to the Pacific Northwest, my son, an avid Yahoo! Personals fan, convinced me to give Yahoo! Personals a try. I subscribed through a seven-day, free-trial offer. Reluctantly and nervously, I created a profile, but didn't make it searchable for anyone to see.

"Since he was on television, I figured he was credible."

I created a profile on Yahoo! Personals in December 2003, but I did not become a member at that time. I was not ready to dive into the singles arena yet, so I waited until the time was right. My divorce was final on March 1, 2004. Fortunately, I decided my life was going to be happy with or without a man in my life. I focused on my job.

When my husband and I met, neither of us was looking for a relationship. As it turns out, what you want and need are sometimes very different things. Bob had just gotten divorced and I was separated from my husband. We were both just looking to make new friends and get a change of scenery. We had talked online a couple of times and agreed to meet for dinner.

I had been using Yahoo! Personals for about six months. I tried it because I was tired of meeting the wrong people. I wanted a place where I had an option to filter out the people who weren't right for me. I wanted to get to know a guy first, instead of being physically attracted to him the first time I see him.

"If anyone wants to know if they can find true love on Yahoo! Personals, just look at our ...

I had just survived my first cancer scare. I was days away from my divorce being final and my best friend showed me Yahoo! Personals. I created my profile and replied to a few others. All seemed OK, however, one stood out.

"We are just so happy to have found each other."

I posted a profile on Yahoo! Personals after being single so long and not finding anyone in my hometown, I figured it was worth a shot. Since I'm not into the bar scene, and I'm a total computer geek, I just thought I'd see what happened. Little did I know how it would all end!

"It was truly amazing. I am 42, he is 49...."

After about six months of online dating, I had decided to give it up, not that I wasn't meeting nice men, but I wasn't meeting men that I really had a lot in common with. About a month later, my cousin, who'd been having great luck with Yahoo! Personals, sent me to Yahoo! to view the profile of a woman he was interested in so I could offer him some input.

"Our first date went very well and I was blown away."

I decided to create a Yahoo! Personals account and it was truly one of the best decisions I have ever made.
