Curious to your thoughts on the process. IJL wants $4900 up front for 1 year with basically no guarantees or refunds.  |

Just too much risk.
Newish to the area so didn’t know a lot of people locally. Didn’t think I’d meet someone lasting at a bar, and not really a bar hopper myself. Some friends set me up with dates, pfft. Eventually got on eHarmony, which was free or inexpensive (I don’t recall, it’s been 11 years). Met my wife there.
My sister used Match after her divorce and met her husband there.
Not for everyone, but I had a good experience. I can see using something like the OP mentioned if only to weed out the non-serious, but that price also might weed out some wonderful people who won’t or can’t pay that price.

This. It's not for everyone and I don't know what it is like these days, but I met my wife on Match.com and we've been married almost 10 years now.
