Evening
So I’ve been single a while now . Me and traditional dating didn’t work too well at first ( for several reasons ) but a few months on I’m thinking of trying it again.
Any tips ? Sites to use ?

I’ve only ever used Match and POF. I’ve never tried the swipey, appy ones.
They’re all much of a muchness, I think.
I was always very firm in my profile, which helped out the numpties as they knew I wouldn’t take any shit.
Good luck! |

So I've been single for a while and decided to go to online dating but just using the swipey ones and it just seemed I'd get the same thing and wasn't really people wanting to date or open to see where things go if that makes sense it'd be couple dates and fizzle out |

My number 1 tip to anyone dating is to work on yourself
There’s a lot of people saying “There’s no good men/women anymore” while offering very little in return themselves
The people at the top of their game aren’t struggling
Either up your game or lower your standards and dating is a breeze |

If only it was that simple... |

It was a positive experience for me overall. Just don’t take it too seriously or become too emotionally invested.
It’s all bullshit until it actually happens  |

"Match is awful. In fact they all are. Full of chancers and liars. Better of on here x
On here for dating? Really ?
Why not? X"
Cos men on here expect sex and then tend to ignore after ( until they are horny again) |

Sure, fab is free, anyone can message anyone without needing to pay (excluding message filters of course), you can look up whoever and wherever they are, theres a forum to get to know ppl in a more public setting before committing to taking things further and chatting privately. Theres profile verifications so you can actually some idea of someone from a 2nd opinion
Fab is probably the best place for dating these days, regardless of its original intention to be a sex site. Ive used dating sites and theyre just trash in so many ways. But if i were to get back into dating with the intentions of a relationship, fab is the place id use |

Was discussed recently I think on another thread but from My own experience, if your after proper dating not casual dating then it’s not so much about where you look. More being clear with what you want from the get go, and use your best instincts in avoiding the ones that clearly only after a leg over.
Try badoo, tinder, bumble, hinge all pretty much the same swipe, match, chat, go on date… |

Your completely right, people can judge others on the smallest of things but let themselves off with their not so great traits.
Being honest with yourself and understanding what others see will help you massively.

Here in the lounge, mostly as theres a lot of threads of various non-sexual topics, and after so long you tend to build a better understanding of the ppl here |

Yes really, I ran a matchmaking thread for ages and at least one couple that met that way got engaged |

I’ve had two (granted failed) long term relationships from here, but I went about it all wrong and suppressed my sexuality.
But yes, this is a good a place as any.
Also Feeld is a really good app for kinksters |

In my opinion it seems people nowadays want the person to be a fairy tail prince or princess and expect people to fall at their feet without both mutually putting effort and time into each other. People are very much self entitled and if everyone has that mentality and you want to date etc, then you aren't going to get very far.  |

"They're all infuriating but if you want to be more open about sexual desires, feeld is fine. Glitchy but I've tended to chat on another app if it gets too bad. "
Feeld is SO glitchy! I've met a couple of guys from there, tend to be on my wavelength. Kink-wise anyway. |

No idea why they haven't fixed it.
And yeah, it's good to have that shortcut, although I have recently seen a woman's profile with pictures of her children, which feels wrong even on tinder.  |

Oh nobody with pics of their kids should be on any of these ads! |
