The value reddit users get is from viewing new and interesting content and comments. The value a user of a dating site gets is the PROSPECT of going on a face to face meeting with another person.

Hell, that might make me want to go even more often. If I found out a dating site users were doing the same with messaging, that completely precludes me from getting the value I really want from the site, thus its useless.
