Make a Love Connection
Although online dating is just as common as meeting someone at the bar nowadays, many Detroiters still can't imagine meeting their sweetie through wires and ip addresses. It worked for Nickhil Koushik and Jada Williams, who met on match.com in 2005 and are now engaged (with a wedding date set for next March), but there are other ways for those who are too computer-shy to meet prospective dates and potentially find a significant other.
Shed Elamin of Singlesdetroit.net is a dating consultant who hosts functions such as speed dating, lock-and-key parties and the MLK Ski Weekend. He is proud of the success of his events. "My events force interaction among guests; there are many people whose relationships are still flourishing," he says. His most effective event is speed dating. "It's good because it gives participants the opportunity to date several people in a controlled environment and make a decision about who they would like to pursue."

It is important to keep a positive and open mind through the process.
