Great Expectations is different from other dating services. We know you're not into blind dates, so we'll never introduce you to someone without giving you detailed background information and a recent photo.

We have a diverse Membership here in Cleveland/Columbus/Cincinnati which includes everyone from college students to widowers, retired persons to professional executives. The one thing our Members have in common is that they're simply looking for a dignified, private and safe way of meeting and dating like-minded singles. So, no matter what stage you are in life, Great Expectations has a place for you.
Join us today!

Find out why so many Cleveland/Columbus/Cincinnati singles are turning to Great Expectations rather than other dating services.

Security. To create a safe dating environment, we screen every applicant. We check two forms of photo ID, conduct a personal interview and get to know each candidate. Upon joining, we perform a comprehensive background check on every Member.

Privacy. Your name and telephone number information is completely confidential until you give us permission to release it to a Member who has selected you. Member profiles are password-protected-that means only other Members have access to your profile, not your colleagues, your Aunt Mabel or any random visitor to our Website.

Service. Our talented and friendly staff will take you by the hand and walk you through the process. Because we get to know our Members, we're available to answer any questions you may have about someone you're interested in, or someone who's expressed interest in you. It's like having well connected friends-go ahead, ask them for advice!

Digital "Video Conversations." Our exclusive digital videos are one of the most powerful tools you receive at Great Expectations because they allow you to evaluate mannerisms, personality, and general compatibility. Those traits are nearly impossible to convey in a written profile. Our friendly camera operators will prompt you with questions about yourself while putting you at ease and making you look your best.

Photography Session. Your Membership includes an hour with a professional photographer to capture the best look for your Profile. Don't worry! Our seasoned photographer knows how to bring out the best in
everyone. Our Member Profiles are complete, accurate portrayals of the
way our Members look now.

Events and Activities. We have an onsite event coordinator. Meet new people and enjoy activities like midnight bowling, limousine scavenger hunts, "Summer Bashes", co-ed softball, wine tastings, black tie galas, holiday parties and more!
