As a Matchmaker, I meet great women on a daily basis who tell me about their online dating stories. An important number of them had the chance to meet wonderful men who had it all except for one small detail - they were married. Now these women are savvy, successful, good looking yet they encountered these men and only after starting to get involved began to wonder ''is he married''?  The unfortunate answer was yes.

It is estimated that up to 30% of all online users are actually married. According to Julie Albright, sociologist at the University of Southern California, married people are 6 times more likely to visit dating sites than singles. And even though sites dedicated to married people like www.ashleymadison.com are becoming more and more numerous, the ones who are ''spoken for'' are still very active on the most popular websites dedicated to singles.

This is probably one of the greatest advantages of letting your certified matchmaker work for you and introduce you to the ''right people''. For women, you are assured to meet men who fit the profile that you are looking for. Guys, your matchmaker will introduce you to the great ladies who are no longer wasting their time on dating websites. The choice is up to you!
