Equestrian Singles
Finding Your Soul Mate

EquestrianCupid.com - the best horse-lover dating site!

If you love horses and spend a lot of time and money on horses and riding, finding a soul mate that feels the same about them is a great bonus. Often, however, it does not work out that way, and one partner can end up feeling jealous of the time and attention the other lavishes on his/her horses.

If you wanted to meet equestrian singles, how do you go about it?

A primary venue where equestrians may find other equestrians is in a horse show or competition. Unfortunately, few people find love in these places. Because horse riding is a competitive sport, it is hard to develop any romantic feelings for anyone in such arena.

That is why there are websites where horse-loving single men and women can meet. Through online dating websites, many couples have met and found "true love." Equestrian singles sites invite adult horse lovers to register and upload their details. Or they can make a personal video ad. The information is added to the database that other members can browse through. If they are interested in one of the other members of the website, they may send messages to that person, and later on, meet each other.

Aside from the regular online dating services, some sites have special match-making services. Using the information that you provided, the host website runs a program that determines which couples have more potential of becoming lovers than others. Once they've found your "match," they set you up a date for you.

Some websites are not mere dating sites but online equestrian communities where people with the same passion and love for horses meet and exchange ideas. Upcoming events in the community are posted in the website, so people will know if there will be a show, rodeo or competition. They also have chat rooms and forums, perfect venues for equine lovers to interact and get to know each other.

A view pointers for the male equestrian single:

Identification of the Female Equestrian...

• EASY TO LOCATE. She's either off on the horse or out in the barn.

• UPHOLDS THE DOUBLE STANDARD. Smooches with the most bewhiskered beast, but recoils when you need a shave.

• OWNS ONE VACUUM CLEANER and operates it exclusively in the barn.

• A SOCIAL BUTTERFLY, providing the party is given by another horsey wife. Falls asleep in her soup at all other functions.

• ECONOMY MINDED. Won't waste your money on permanents, facials, or manicures.

• A CULINARY PERFECTIONIST. Checks every section of hay for mold but doesn't blink when she petrifies your dinner in the microwave.

• OCCASIONALLY AMOROUS, but never leaves lipstick on your collar, at worst, slight trace of chap stick.

• EASY TO OUTFIT. No need for embarrassing visits to uncomfortable little boutiques. You can find all she wears at your local tack store.

• FEATURES A SELECTIVE SENSE OF SMELL. Bitterly complains about your sticky-sweet cigar smoke while remaining totally oblivious to the almost visible aroma of her barn boots drying next to the heater.

• UNMISTAKABLE IN A BATHING SUIT. She's the one whose tan starts at the nose, ends at the neck, and picks up again at the wrists

• HAS YOUR LEISURE AT HEART. Eliminates grass cutting by turning every square inch of lawn into pasture which, in turn, converts itself into mud.

• KEEPS AN EAGLE EYE ON THE BUDGET. Easily justifies spending six hundred dollars, but croaks when you blow ten on a tie.

• AN ENGAGING CONVERSATIONALIST. Can rattle on endlessly about training.

• SOCIALLY AWARE. Knows that formal occasions call for clean boots.

• A MOVING FORCE IN THE FAMILY. House by house, she'll get you to move closer to horse country (and farther away from your job.)

• EASY TO PLEASE. A new wheelbarrow, custom boots, or even a folding hoof pick will win her heart forever.

• SENTIMENTAL FOOL. Displays a minimum of six 8x10 color photos of the horse in the house and carries a crumpled snapshot of you (taken before you were married) somewhere in the bottom of her purse.

• SHOWS HER AFFECTION IN UNUSUAL WAYS. If she pats you on the neck and says "you're a good boy," believe it or not, she loves you!

And for female equestrian singles:

Husbands Vs. Horses

Pros About Husbands:

• Husbands are less expensive to shoe.

• Husbands don't try to scratch their heads on your back.

• They're better able to understand puns.

• If they're playing hard to catch you *may* be able to run them down on foot.

• They know their name.

• They pay their own bills.

• They apologize when they step on your toes.

• They seldom refuse to get in the vehicle.

• They don't panic, yelling and running all through the house when you leave them alone. (unless you left the kids too)

Pros about Horses:

• If they don't work out you can sell them.

• They don't come with in-laws.

• You don't have to worry about your children looking like them.

• You never have to iron their saddle pads.

• It's possible to keep them from "jumping the fence".

• You can force them to stay in good physical condition...with a whip if necessary.

• They don't want their turn at the computer.

• They turn white with age, but not bald.

• They learn to accept restraint.

• They don't care what you look like, as long as you have a carrot.

One word of caution, though. Never reveal personal details of yourself like your name, work or home address, telephone number etc.

And keep in mind…

Like horses, relationships have needs, too. As horses need to be fed and cared for, relationships need to be nurtured and loved. Meeting equestrian singles, in any possible way, is just the first step. If you want to develop a deeper, more meaningful relationship with someone, you have to work on it. Soon enough, you will find your special someone to share love with.
