I just finished reading this on another site and found it to be rather accurate of Mingle and thought that I would share it will all of you, and hear what you guys have to thing.

Mingle2 has had an interesting history to say the least. The original internet dating site, Mingle2, was acquired by JustSayHi, and all its members were migrated to the new site. Then JustSayHi went JustSayBye when it ran into some issues with a large search engine (maybe you’ve heard of them?), so it underwent another name change to OnePlusYou. OnePlusYou then changed its name back to Mingle2. I would assume all of this was quite confusing to members so let’s hope that for their sakes mingle2 will be the last change.

Having said all that, I was prepared to dislike this site, but I have to admit that my first impression of this site is favorable. The color selection of orange, green, yellow and gray is an interesting one and surprisingly enough it works. I’ve seen some merged sites that seemed to take the worst of both and the end result was a disaster, but not so here.

The site is well designed with a clean uncluttered look. Since membership is free, this site relies on advertising for its revenue, and I didn’t find the advertising placements intrusive. They’re there, but not in your face like on some other free dating sites. In some cases it’s hard to tell the ads from actual content so be sure to look for the “Ads by xyz” before clicking and ending up somewhere you’d rather not go.

The sign up process is relatively painless, though I would have appreciated the opportunity to fully browse the site without having to register for a profile.

You can choose to do your own searching via the basic and advances searches, or let the system do the work for you with “Mutual Match”. This feature will bring up a seemingly endless list of profiles to which you can reply either “yes”, “no” or “maybe”. Although I initially liked this feature, it becomes tiresome after awhile so now I just ignore it, preferring to use the advanced search or “who’s online” feature.

If you find yourself in need of assistance, there is a help section available with frequently asked questions. The only problem with it is that you have to return to your profile page to find it. Once I figured that out all was good, but there should be a link to the FAQ’s on every page.

The community forum is well attended and has a wide variety of topics for discussion. Like all forums they can be a great time waster and a lot of fun. You’ll find a wide variety of opinions here, so tread carefully; some of them are not for the faint of heart.
Communication with other members is easily accomplished using the email and chat functions. I really found the “who can mail me” feature very handy. You can easily select who can contact you via the site’s email or instant messaging by selecting the gender, age range and distance from you of people you’d like to hear from. In addition you can block the following users; married, looking for intimate encounter, those who smoke, and those who drink.

All in all, a good site and definitely a worthy (Site name edited) competitor!

It's just too bad they didn't mention the "Nigerian royalty needing help getting their money into the U.S." and the "Russian student looking for love here in America". They seem to pervade this place.

It is a great place for that isn't it? Just wish I could get on more often then I have been.


I just wish you'd find someone who makes a coffee for you with a heart in it just like you had in your profile months ago. If he can do that, he's a keeper.
