Date a Hero

Firefighters, policemen, doctors. Admit it—you’ve had a fantasy about one (or all of the above) at some point. After all, what’s sexier than risking one’s life to save another’s?

Now, if only there was a way to single out all those available, attractive heroes...

Oh, wait—there is! Check out Dateahero.com. This online dating site was started by a firefighter and his wife in Orange County, CA, in 2005. All “heroes” must go through an employment verification profess to verify that they work in a public service industry. Currently, this niche dating site has around 4,000 members and can lay claim to one wedding.  

Who knew that there are so many smart, sexy, adventurous men and women out there on the market? Now, you have no excuse to rhetorically complain, “Where are all the good, single guys/girls out there?” Go find them online! [Ocregister.com]
