While Tumblr's 'NiceGuysofOKCupid' is now sadly defunct, the online dating site OKCupid has gotten even creepier with the release of their new blind date app. This can't possibly end well.

Bless this brave, Australian man -- he has done a service for us all. Here is a video where he says 100 of the worst pickup lines imaginable to women, with varying degrees of rejection resulting.

Earthly Delights is a farm in Boise, Idaho that's come up with a creative way to get cheap help. One night a year, they invite single people to come and meet each other... while doing work in the fields. They call it "Weed Dating", and it's a chance to meet possible romantic partners in a new and different setting than most speed-dating events.

A friend of mine called me last night and asked if I would set him up with a co-worker of mine. I automatically said, "sure" without even thinking about it. Later that I night I was thinking about when I would tell my co-worker, and it hit me...maybe it isn't such a good idea to set them up.

Valentine's Day is almost upon us and there will be many, many couples going out on a date on or around the 14th. A survey by PR Newswire asked single people what their biggest deal-breakers are on a date.  Here are the top five things that will get you dumped.

This week is National Pet Peeve Week, and to celebrate, the dating site Zoosk conducted a survey from PR Newswire on biggest dating pet peeves. Apparently, men are more annoying than women.  One in four men could only come up with one pet peeve, if they could think of any.  One in five women listed more than five.

That whole "opposites attract" thing? Pretty much a myth, at least on dating sites. A new study out of the University of California, Berkeley has determined that people on online dating sites are drawn to each other based on a similar level of attractiveness and social desirability. In other words, if you're popular, other popular people will flock to you. And if you're not, well, you'll

Oh how I remember going on the dreaded "first date". While it was a little exciting to get to know someone knew it was always awkward spending a few hours with a complete stranger. I would think that no one, in their right mind, would want to make a first date even more awkward but apparently some people do. In a new survey by the social dating website Zoosk.com reported from PR Newsw

What is the first thing that you noticed about your spouse? If they were moody were you more attracted to them? I would think that nobody would be attracted to a moody, miserable person. Apparently I am wrong. According to a study from Canadian Press out of the University of British Columbia in Canada, women are significantly more sexually attracted to a man who is MOODY, MISERABLE, or BROODING th
