I'm sad to hear this ... I was/am rooting for you guys. What platform did you build on? Maybe we can recommend some low/no cost hosts that you can use to bootstrap yourself until you get more traffic.

Really, being unemployed is the worst time to throw away your startup.

Just unsure what to do. At this point, google ads is not a revenue stream ($23.00 over the last month).

Seems, that I jumped before I looked, there are thousands of dating sites, not any with the social feel mine has, however. I am facing dating 'chicken and egg problem', perhaps I should have tried to solve that one first.

You could say, that this is the perfect example of someone not doing research before they start a huge project.
