Did you know that people with similar values systems tend to get along better (yes you know this)? That's what "birds of a feather flock together" got coined.

Did you also know that a huge part of finding a romantic partner includes proximity? This means that you are more likely to find that special cupcake depending on how frequently you are putting yourself out there.

Not a genius concept.

If you go to the grocery store more often, then you run into more people. You'll be more likely to encounter a special someone if you run into more people (definitely more chances than me, who millennial orders all my groceries and gets them delivered).

If there's a higher chance of meeting someone by proximity, then go ahead and enter the CAKEd dating pool (but only if you promise to abide by the values and guidelines of CAKEd). Increase your chances of finding someone!

 

Best Etiquette Guidelines

 

  • You agree to be kind and empathic towards other CAKEd members.
  • You agree to be transparent to others.
  • If "caked" (ie. you "match" with someone), you agree to respond to an email telling me a bit more about yourself and a 5-minute "screening" phone call.
  • If "caked" (ie. you "match" with someone), then there should be honest and kind communication if it doesn't work out. NO GHOSTING without accountability!
  • If the first few rounds of texting between both CAKEd parties appear safe and tenable, then you two agree to meet in a mutually agreed upon public place for the first meeting. I suggest getting cake.

Participants must meet all criteria below:

  • You currently live within these counties of Atlanta: Dekalb, Fulton, Gwinnett, Cobb
  • You are within the age range of approximately 35-50 years-old and are open to dating people within this age range.
  • You must be currently single. This means you are not in midst of a separation. You are legally divorced and/or are not currently in a monogamous relationship with anyone else.
  • You are looking for a monogamous relationship
  • You are willing to date other Atlantans living in these counties: Dekalb, Fulton, Gwinnett, Cobb
  • You agree to the Best Etiquette Guidelines

If you don't meet that criteria, then submit your email with demographics/categories that you want me to include. I'll get back to you if this movement expands to more people. I have to start small first.

Legal Jargon. Submitting your information indicates that you understand and accept any potential risks associated with online dating (i.e. contacting and meeting other people). Agreement indicates that you waive any rights of litigation and you release me from legal responsibility when participating. Additionally, you accept The Harmless Clause (this means that I will not be held responsible for damages). Please type your full name below as agreement. If not, then I will delete anything submitted. Thank you. PS. There are not likely more risks doing this than general online dating shenanigans, but I have to write this here because people are not nice.

NOTE: What happens next, including following our self-screening and Best Etiquette Guidelines is based on your own honesty policy. We are relying on your commitment to connecting in a more humane way in dating.

Please note, I am not involved after the initial information is exchanged via email (this is free after all and do you really want me checking in?).

Also, no cakes will be harmed during this process.
