A review of Topix.com led me to this article from the SeacoastOnline.com about a man who is offering cash to the woman who will agree to be his bride.

In the interview for the article, Charles Haberle of Maine states that he has tried multiple tactics including online dating websites with no real luck. He has changed his strategy and now has ads in the newspaper and online at craigslist.org seeking the right woman to be his wife. As a bonus to the lucky woman, he is offering cash incentives.

More information is in the article from SeacoastOnline.com including Mr. Haberle’s email address for those who feel they may be a match for him.

As Mr Haberle’s story illustrates, there is more than one way to try to find a match through online means. While he is using craigslist.org in order to advertise, others regularly use social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace, ShoutLife, and Yahoo in order to find potential matches - though I would not advise offering cash or prizes.

Offline, there are the traditional methods of church, hobby groups, and bars (not recommended due to typically poor results). Also available are singles groups, singles activities sponsored by various organizations, and speed-dating – to mention a few.

Statistically speaking, the more means you use to find a great match, the better your chances for success.

Today’s Question: Besides online dating websites, what other means of finding a great match are YOU utilizing?
