You've joined an online dating site and now you are all ready to go on your first date. You've talked on the phone and all seems "good to go", so you're off in your car or truck to pick the lucky lady up. Now top on your list is that you don't want the whole thing to be a waste of time and money, and if it is going to be, you want it over as quickly and cheaply, as possible.

But there is a new trend immerging.

Niche dating is here. And it is popular. In fact, some niche sites have been on the receiving end of criticism, some of it scathing, for being too exclusive or serving superficial and vainglorious interests.
