Did it take the title away from Plenty of Fish? I thought that was the worst one.


Plenty of Fish didn't really have many people here at that point when I used an app. So it's entirely possible.

I just know I got the weirdest fricking messages on OKCupid. Tons of swingers, even if you explicitly don't put it on your profile. And a ton of married guys posing as single.

That is high class stuff compared to what you get on POF

No disrespect but this is the top criteria of someone that I wouldn't take advice from.

Op, you just have to put yourself out there. Its very simple these days with Social media and dating apps. Just start, and go from there.

Biggest thing to remember on dating apps is that all of the desirable women are being constantly bombarded with matches and messages, and it is very simple to lose their attention. You are just one of many, so unless you do something to stand out you will just be lost in the shuffle and find yourself in an endless loop of matching but never materializing

i'm all for sex, but odds of truly settling down eventually from a dating app?


I was in your situation when I first got divorced. I wanted to go straight into something stable again and was very frustrated from using the apps. It’s called the paradox of choice. The more choices a person has, the less likely they are to settle on an option and be satisfied. You might find your perfect match but in the back of your mind you’ll wonder about the potential of all the ones you haven’t talk to yet. And let’s face it, those apps favor women when it comes to numbers. I finally quit using apps and spending all my time trying to find a girlfriend and since then I’ve had much more success with women believe it or not.

Also accept that even if you are dating someone, she is getting constantly bombarded by men on social media. Eventually one will get her curiosity. She’s not yours, it’s just your turn. So enjoy what you get and move along.

Have you considered becoming a pen pal with a female inmate?

Is the app Date Hookup still around?

It was 10x worse than POF.

ETA: I think I found what the OP needs

back in my day, it could take months before sex was even on the menu


So let’s say 15-20 years ago it would take months of dating a chick to even think about sex? Am I understanding that correctly?

I’m not sure that is very relatable.
