The bottom line ......$$$

Ah Yes! So I thought!
Just to re-inforce things once again.....
MOST if not all of these "singles events" or "singles services" are only after one thing ..... matching you up and helping you find the right one??? ppppssssshhh! NAW ! Thats way to complicated.... its about the almighty $$ as I mentioned in my last post.

Just to update, I tried to post a comment on the singles site that hosted the Terrible New Years Party event that my gfs and I went to... I read all the posts from Jan 1 , saying oh how wonderful and amazing this event was blah blah blah and more bull bull bull (that convinced us to go in the first place).....
And only one post read:
I've read the emails from last night's attendees and wonder if you people were at the same event I was. I was very disappointed in the disorganization, long line-ups for everything, lack of New Year's build-up and hosting. I have been to many New Year's parties and this was by far the worst. Even though I met some very nice people, I was very disappointed in the event organization and don't feel it was worth the money paid.

Lucky gal. She at least had her message posted!!!!
And of course she got tones of responses (probably from employees of the site) saying "oh no it was really great I had a wonderful time, the lines are expected and events that hold 600 ppl" 600? No, more like 360. But thats no excuse for POOR ORGANIZATION!

I actually went to 2 other events from this site with my friends. One was the Indoor Golfing. Again that was poorly organized! Our french instructor did not teach but rather just said "you do like dis" and moved our hands and feet to where they needed to be explaining nothing; even one gal yelled at the instructor "dont you ever touch me again!" My friend and I actually learned more and paid less going to our own golf lesson at another golf place. The next event I convinced another friend to go to was Adventure racing. They told us that you dont have to be experienced and it is very casual, and it will be fun so bring your runners. Well we sat in a room for 3 hours as the instructors talked to us about their die-hard-hard-core-adventure-racing endeavours and how to prepare for one - we did not meet other people - we did not interact with anyone else in the class - we just sat listening to a 3 hour lecture.
I could go on with the details but I wont. All this to say I want to WARN OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT SITES LIKE THIS who PREY on singles and infact I want to warn anyone that thinks that http://www.meetmarketadventures.com is a great place to meet people - because its not!!!!!!! They definately decieve their customers - I suggest you check out the site and see how exciting everygthing looks like, maybe they should be called scam-marketors.com?

They would not let me post my rather tame (believe it or not) comment on their site like the lucky gal above got to. All I did was agree with the gal above and state that I noticed the disorganization in the other 2 events that I attended.
........So I am voicing my opinion HERE on MY SITE.

Yes I have learned my lesson. I guess I needed to be suckered into it 3 times (hehe) before I learned.
So to my poor friends out there who I convinced to go.... you better smack me upside the head if I try to convince you to go to any of their events again ;) ... (I do realize this is in writing too hehe)
