Finding love as a single parent is tough, if not impossible. The person you want not only has to like you, they also have to be alright with the fact that you’re not alone…you’re a parent. When single parents meet the right people, the relationships can be just as fulfilling (if not more) than relationships formed between single people without kids. Enter Single Parents Mingle. Single Parents Mingle is another online dating website that’s part of the Sparks Network. If you’re a single parent and you’re looking for love online, read on and find out the many different ways Single Parents Mingle can help you find love.
Single Parents Mingle has a couple of features that are unique to Sparks network online dating websites. It has a service who’s concept is similar to “Hot or Not”. It’s called “Think You’d Click”. It posts a picture of a single and then asks you if you’d click on that profile and check the person out. If you select ‘Yes’, Single Parents Mingle will secretly find out if that person is interested in you as well. If they are, they’ll let you know! I love this feature because it’s zero risk. You can honestly answer and perhaps even find someone special.
Single Parents Mingle also offers a free ‘smiles’ service to all members. The service allows you to contact other singles and let them know you’re interested. There are a number of pre-written messages that you can send ranging from picture requests to flirts. This is a great way to get the conversation started. If you want to be able to communicate with other singles in your own words than a standard subscription to Single Parents Mingle is required.
If you want to spring for the premium membership, you’re profile will be placed in Spotlight and Stand-Out, two additional services offered by Sparks Network online dating websites. Spotlight places your profile
picture and basic information directly on the homepage of free and paying members of Single Parents Mingle. This has enormous exposure value.
Stand Out is a similar feature. When a single searches and you come up as a possible result, your profile is given a special background color and a much larger viewing area. They also give your profile picture a nice border. All of this additional detail means you’re going to get looked at more than others who just have standard profiles. More attention = more clicks on your profile = greater chance of someone liking you. It costs just a little bit extra to add these two services, but can prove well worth the value if you find someone special.
What I Love about Single Parents Mingle:
- Stand-Out and Spotlight. These services are unique and provide users with just a few extra tools to find love.
- Think you’d click? Anonymous is always good online because you can be up front and honest without fear of rejection. I think this is a great way to find out if someone likes you.
- The ‘smiles’ service that allows users to get the party started with potential partners. The flirty sayings go a long way to let someone know that you’re interested.
What I Hate about Single Parents Mingle:
- The website does not allow users to reply to messages at no cost. There are other dating websites out there that only require one party to be a paying member.
