|  | | Are you still not sure about joining?! This site absolutely works! Not only will you meet completely awesome people who you will connect with, but you may find a match just for you! I must admit I had my doubts when I joined, but within weeks I met a bunch of great people in the chat room. Hop in the TARDIS, skip ahead several months and you'll see me with an awesome guy (Dark_T_Zeratul) who is my match in all things geeky. It all started with a mutual "hotlist" and a message. We talked, we saw a couple movies and everything just rolled along from there. He allows me my falconry time and I allow him his WoW time (though he swears he loves me more than WoW...at least until the new expansion comes out). I couldn't have asked for more from a dating site. It's like it was tailor-made just for people like us. So what are you waiting for?!

|  | | Alright, let's face it when you live on a tiny island the likely hood of finding your soulmate is... well, slim to none. So you try dating sites, and let's face it most of them SUCK.
"We're sorry we are unable to match you at this time."
What? Unable to match me? Unable to match me!? I get along with EVERYONE I'm not asking for you to give me quantam physics I just want someone who has seen a comic book before! They didn't have to read it, just see one! GREAT GOOGLEY MOOGILY!
Alas, another "dateless" summer. Then, to my surprise reading Jennie Breedon's fabulous Devil's Panties I see a link "Geek dating site?" I say. "I shall try!"
Now have I found my soul mate? Nah. I'm 23 I'm not surprised. But I have seen more than a few relationships get started here. I urged about 20 friends to sign up, and they have and all have found matches.
And while I might not have YET found true love, I have found true friends who helped me market and promote my dream job.
Thank you Dino. Thank you, Soul Geek!

|  | | (Spectrum) I found out about SoulGeek from a banner ad on PvP. Curious, but not really looking for anyone, I signed up as a non-dating member. (Figured if nothing else I'd at least be able to find some friends with similar interests.) Well, I absolutely fell in love with the site. So much so that I decided I wanted to help and became a chatroom moderator.
Spending so much time in the chatroom, I met many wonderful people and made several good friends. But there was one person in particular that caught my attention. The chatting with her led to sending emails, to exchanging phone numbers, to meeting in person.
(Randomscraps) After seeing an ad on The Devil's Panties I signed up to try out the free membership offer. Happy to be part of a new, geeky, community on-the-rise I checked the forums regularly and finally ventured into the chatroom. Unlike other sites, this chatroom was welcoming, friendly and lacked a lot of the more unsavory, juvenile aspects of many sites. That's when I first met Spectrum and many others that have become friends.
I wasn't looking for anyone at the time, but one night I got to flirting with Spectrum well into the wee hours and we really hit it off. We started emailing regularly and then he came out to visit the next month. We spent an average of one weekend a month together, with chats and emails and phone calls filling in the between times but it wasn't enough. Since Spectrum's move in April we spend all of our weekends together and still hang out in the chatroom most evenings to keep in touch during our busy weeks.
(Spectrum and Randomscraps) Things have been going very well since we first met in October, 2007. Being within driving distance made it a little easier to visit each other on a regular basis, and a few months ago Spectrum made the move to Florida so that we could be closer.
Had it not been for SoulGeek, even with the two of us being relatively close, we wouldn't have found each other. Thank you Dino and thank you SoulGeek! | | | | - Spectrum & Randomscraps |

I met some interesting people in the chat, including Coltia. She was having a rough time, so I talked with her, and eventually we traded more contact info. Well, we got to talking more and more, and now I'm just crazy about her."
Coltia: "When I saw him in the chatroom, I looked at his picture and thought he was cute. When I actually started talking with him, I realized that he had the brains to go with the looks. As I got to know him better, I realized he was a sweet, caring guy, and that was it. What girl can argue with everything she wanted? I found myself having late night conversations into the early hours of the morning and not missing the sleep. I honestly couldn't be happier."
If it weren't for SoulGeek, neither of us would've known the other existed. We're both so grateful to have found each other. Thank you, SoulGeek! | | | | - MagicFlyinLemur & Coltia |

|  | First, for all those doubters out there, THIS SITE WORKS! Just give it a try! This site is the best haven for geeks I have ever found. It is so friendly and if it had not been for SoulGeek.com we never would have found each other!
I (EmpathicCelt) was emerging from a very lonely, dark period in my life when I first saw the SoulGeek banner on the PvPOnline website. I joined without much hope and let my profile just linger there for several months. Finally, after celebrating my 35th birthday I decided I had to give the forums a shot. I dived into them and saw the name "Hildarstarbound" in a banner stating he had suggested the name for the new Relationship Forum, "As You Wish". That immediately stuck in my head and I started posting.
In the forums people mentioned the chat rooms normally I avoid them but I decided, what the hell, what have I got to lose? So I poked my head in and sure enough, I was made very welcome and instantly made friends. It was great! Then I saw "Hildarstarbound" pop in to the chat room and of course, I had to get to know the guy who named the Relationship forum! He was quiet, shy, and seemed to hide in the virtual corner. I proceeded to show him that there is nowhere to hide from an EmpathicCelt and I'm so glad I did! After we started talking he bought Guild Wars and joined the newly named "Soul Geeks" guild that I created and we started gaming together. Next we were voice chatting through Soul Geek every night and it felt like we'd been friends forever. Then phone numbers were exchanged and in a matter of weeks I realized my day just didn't seem complete without talking to him. What amazed me is that he seemed to feel the same way! We met face to face on November 14, 2007. (He drove over 500 miles just to meet me!) and we have been inseparable ever since! We even have _our song_ - "The Way I Am" by Ingrid Michaelson.
I have my "knight", he has his "beauty", we are SOULGEEKS and we owe it all to you, Dino, and your site!
From the bottom of
our hearts... Thank You!!
