I was REALLY hesitent to join Great Expectations 5 years ago. It was expensive. They wanted you
to make a decision on your first visit. The person that interviewed me was young, pretty,
and I couldn't imagine she could empathize with my situation at all.
All of this and for some reason I still took the plunge. The next day I called her and tried
to cancel, because I thought "What in the world am I doing?" She talked to me and calmed me down.
The following week was my photo and video session. I was really nervous and, again,
I second guessed myself, but I decided that since I had made the commitment, I was going to
do everything I could to keep a positive attitude and enjoy myself.
I am so glad I did not read reviews before I joined because I would not have realized that
the negative reviews were written by people who didn't take the time to actually use the service.
It makes sense because all the happy members are busy enjoying the people they have met
and are too busy to be writing reviews on the internet. I never would have thought to go
on sites like this, except I was looking up info about Great Expectations to reccommend
it to a coworker. I am busy, professional, and Not a person that wanted to date men
I met at the bar (or online which are the same men).
It has been 5 years since I joined and I have been happily married for 2 years because
of them and met one of my closest girlfriends at one of the member events.
For me, Great Expectations was worth 10 times more than I paid for it.

If you have other comments about Great
Expectations dating service, please let
me know. Of all the singles dating services I looked at, I was attracted to Great-Expectations.com
because of the fact that it does not promote gay relationship.
Unlike most matchmaking services, it determines your profile but
matches you manually instead of electronically. And if you are ever
concerned about the safety and validity of dating online, fear
not, a staff from Great-Expectations.com
will actually call up your prospective dates to
interview and verify the facts they have provided.
Call it old-fashion but the thoroughly interviewed
and carefully screened dates are well worth the pricey paid membership.
Truly, this service is only
meant for those who are serious about finding their life partners,
serial daters need not apply.
Unfortunately, feedback from users have not been very positive lately, I
personally recommend you hold off using their service, check out our
recommended dating services instead.
