			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have a question?  No worry.   We expected you might.  If our frequently asked questions page doesn’t clear the air, just give us a call and a Great Expectations matchmaker will be glad to help.</p>
<p><strong>What’s the difference between Great Expectations Seattle</strong> <strong>and Internet Dating Services?<br />
</strong> <br />
At Great Expectations, you’ll receive so much more than just a written description of our Seattle Members. You’ll receive personal, face-to-face service; invitations to member parties year-round; background checks and pre-screening of Members; accurate and recent photos and digital videos of Members; and much, much more!<br />
 <br />
<strong>Will my information be kept private?</strong></p>
<p>We’ve put a premium on privacy. That means we won’t sell your information to anyone. Your name and phone number is also off-limits to Members until you’ve agreed to allow someone to contact you. Member profiles are password-protected so only other Members have access. At Great Expectations Seattle, we’ve worked with high-profile people including local media and sports personalities and high-ranking business executives that demand the highest level of confidentiality. Whether you’re in a high-profile position or not, everyone receives the same care and service.<br />
 <br />
<strong>Are your fees affordable?</strong></p>
<p>We offer the convenience of a wide-array of memberships at a variety of Membership levels to suit your needs and budget. We’re confident that you’ll be happy with the level of service you receive at our competitive rates!<br />
 <br />
<strong>What is your Membership base like?</strong></p>
<p>With thousands of Members at each location, our Membership base changes daily. We value a diverse Membership including people from all walks and stages of life. So, whether you’re divorced, in college, have children or don’t want any, we have Members that are looking for someone like you.<br />
 <br />
<strong>How do I know if this will work for me?</strong></p>
<p>When it comes to relationships, only you can determine if it’s a success; however, we’ll do everything in our power to get you there. Our promise to you is that we’ll actively support your Membership in a number of ways including, but not limited to: making recommendations, introducing you to compatible Members, writing letters on your behalf to Members, and helping you meet someone you’ve had your eye on at one of our parties. We’ll always go the extra mile. We respect the investment that you’ve made-both emotionally and financially-and we understand what’s at stake. Our goal is to help you fulfill the dreams you walked in the door with when you joined Great Expectations.<br />
 <br />
<strong>How do I get started?</strong></p>
<p>It’s easy. Simply complete our Contact Information Form and a Member Advisor will contact you directly to answer any questions you have. Once you’re a Member, you’ll be surprised at how quickly you begin meeting and dating like-minded single people!</p>
