@Aaron — this matches what I saw. Nobody warns the average member here that I find a list of dating sites that shows which ones needs a fortnight before the results mean anything. The thing that surprised me about that flavour of site was how much the first message matters less than the timing.
Every thread on I find a list of dating sites that shows which ones turns into a list of app names when the real question is how it performs in practice. I find a list of dating sites that shows which ones rewards patience more than strategy, but I am only one sample, and everything after that is cosmetic. Honestly, I find a list of dating sites that shows which ones is priced like a premium product and behaves like a free one — the rest sorts itself out.
- Worth doing early: screenshot the pricing before you agree to anything — it costs nothing
- Before you pay: turn off read receipts and see what changes and note what changes
- First thing: message five people and count the replies
- Fill the profile out properly first twice, a fortnight apart
Take that as one data point on I find a list of dating sites that shows which ones, not a verdict. I have seen datelink.online, souldate.site suggested as well, with the same caveats attached.
