If you're a single looking to meet your mate, today's generation of daters is seeking help online with internet-based matchmaking services.
However, it wasn't that long ago that people looking for compatible partners would turn to those who knew them best -- their friends -- to set them up on blind dates. What happened to this mysterious, intriguing way of meeting a mate? Are people even going on blind dates anymore and, if they are, is this now considered a "last resort"?

If I trusted my local friends to hook me up with a date, I swear I'd be screwed....not in the good way either. I never assume my friends would know me better than myself. I'm speaking from bad experiences, of course, lol.

I had a blind date before with my friend's cousin. When I met her, she was not my type. The worst part was that I had to keep listening to her bad experiences and her crappy job. My ears almost bled.
