What are some good social networks to meet new friends/dating?

[cosmic girl]

I don’t like paid dating sites - But I have tried Tagged and it is a mass meat market - I want something that is a little bit more up market and doesn’t attract people blatantly selling sex…Are there any social or free dating sites that are for professionals. I have also tried facebook and myspace but not impressed...

I've meet and made some friends on here.

Hi Cosmic Girl,

There is this new site called 'Velvet Lounge Dating' - CUSHIONS COMMUNITY DATING. It looks very different and professional... it has just launched and they seem to be heavily working on the promotion...they have a points system as well for inviting friends to help them with the promotion

Look's great because it has all the social network elements...music, videos and other cool features which other dating sites simply don't have!

You should def check it out...it's completely free http://www.velvetloungedating.com/

try plentyoffish.com

and http://www.datopia.com

they are a bit upmarket and dont' really attract the useless pervert crowd that we see on so called popular dating sites.
