Singles are doing it for themselves
Breaking away from traditional beliefs that frown on dating around, today's smart singles are taking advantage of all the internet has to offer.

"Why should I go out with just one guy?" asks Penelope, a 22-year old computer guru from Queens. "I can find guys online and date quite a few before I decide which one I really like."

Penelope emphasizes that she doesn't have to become intimate with any of her dates. "Geez, we're not married," she says. "We're just having fun!"

Romance is right around the corner
Internet babes and beaus are creative about where to go and what to do. They've realized that not only can they find a match in their home town, they also can globetrot with the assistance of a quick search .

So how can you make the most of being single? Match.com offers these five tips:

1. Flirt for the fun of it
   "Eye contact and a seductive smile is a great way to let someone know you're interested," advises Christine, 32 years old in Los Angeles.
   
    
2. Stretch your sassiness
   "I'd not sure I want to be described as 'sassy,'" admits Jon, 29 years old and from Dallas. "But what works for me is striking a balance between confident and arrogant. A little cockiness goes a long way."
   
    
3. Schedule three dates in one day
   "I've done it. It works. And the adrenaline alone keeps you going," laughs Katrina, 35 years old in Chicago. "Fun as hell, but you've got to keep your facts straight."
   
    
4. Let your confidence be contagious
   "When I walk into the room," gloats Bill, 26 years old in Atlanta, "I own it."
   
    
5. Make your married friends jealous
   "My best friend, Janice, is married," shares Veronica. "She so lives vicariously through my dating adventures. Sometimes I contact other members  and go out on wild dates just to have a great story to tell her."
