I moved to Northern Virginia two years ago and a co-worker, who is also single, suggested we go to a Jewish Dating Washington DC event hosted by Professionals in the City. I thought to myself, “Speed dating??? What a joke. I mean how do you get to really know the person in 5 minutes?” I figured it was a way for people to meet quickly and then just have sex.Boy was I wrong! But first let’s start from the beginning. When I moved here from Florida I was very lonely. It made me sad to see couples doing their Christmas shopping, kissing each other on the street and I guess just being “a couple.” And it also felt like everywhere I looked was a baby, which I long for. So I decided to go to a Jewish dating website that matches Jews easy guitar songs with other Jews. That experience was sometimes fun, sometimes not.I wanted a man to be exclusive with and I found that many people from that site just wanted to date lots of women at the same time. But in the back of my mind I kept thinking about the Jewish Dating Washington DC events however I still wanted to try other ways.I went to a Jewish dating service and that was worse then the online site. There, I basically felt like a piece of meat. They’d take your profile and fix you up with a man they thought you would like. But the profiles were so short I couldn’t imagine how they even knew the type of man I was looking for. They just wanted my money!I finally went to Jewish Dating Washington DC and it was NOT what I expected.
