Man Sues Online Dating Service After Being Rejected

LOS ANGELES -- A man is suing an online dating service after being shunned by another subscriber, according to court papers.

Soheil Davood claims his paid subscription to JDate.com, billed as "the world's largest Jewish singles community," guaranteed that he would find "high-quality, successful Jewish personals without wasting precious time."

According to the suit filed Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court, the plaintiff used the service on Aug. 28, and around 10:30 p.m. began an "online dialogue" with a subscriber using the user name SuperFriendlyGal.

The subscriber allegedly described herself as "a 34-year old Ashkenazi Jewish female, who was never married and who resided in Westwood, California."

The subscriber, who is a co-defendant in the case, made sexual remarks during the chat, claimed to work for the nation's largest lingerie manufacturer, and told Davood that "she might have found her man in the plaintiff," the suit states.

Davood claims the subscriber wanted to talk to him and even convinced him to call directly when he became tired and wanted to go to sleep.

When the plaintiff called, he "received a taunting automated message telling him that he was rejected."

Davood, who is seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, claims the Web site is "defective" because it was poorly designed and monitored, which exposed him to "serious psychological injury."

A representative for Spark Networks, which operates and manages JDate.com, said she could not immediately comment on the lawsuit.

Wow, a whole new world of lawsuits.

Nothing to add, I just thought that was worth repeating.

If people sued with each rejection, it would be dangerous to date anymore.

Yes, but I, for one, would be set for life!
