Q&A: Online dating, free vs paid experiences? {rsstitle}
Question by exopccc3: Online dating, free vs paid experiences?
Sort of a random question, but what sort of success have people found on online dating sites, free vs paid?
My experience has been this – I signed up for a few free sites 2 months ago (okc and pof), talked to a bunch of ladies (mostly not from my city!). In 3 weeks, one girl asked me on a date, though I had to decline as I was not comfortable with the distance/age gap/personality. Recently I just met someone in real life (though only ‘as friends’) – so it took 2 months for any real-life realization.
On the other hand, on a whim I signed up for a paid site (yahoo one) and within 1 week I have a full-fledged date (tomorrow), and several other girls from my city expressing interest.
Also I found that the girls *I* express interest to completely ignore me, so I have to pretty much wait for them to make first contact.
And this question is moreso for the guys, as I’d surmise it’s much easier for girls to find dates.

I think you would have better luck on the Yahoo site because most of the people going on the paid sites are looking out for either money reasons or just sex. The Yahoo sites are more open to just average people who want to meet someone.

While there are a few good free dating sites out there most paid dating sites are well worth the money because they have a lot more members on them. The great thing about free dating sites is that many of them don’t have a lot of members so if you find somebody you like you may not have that much competition. It really depends on which one you join though.
i think paid site is more secure since members are more quality. i know a site called http://www.millionairematch.com/user/femalesingles (http://www.millionairematch.com/user/malesingles ) .its verification system is quite attracting which makes sure that its users are more trustful. well, it’s not only a site for millionaires. all quality singles are welcome there. it has lots of paid members. you don’t even have to pay if your profile is attractive enough …others will contact you
I got my lover through online dating. She is met at the wealthy men dating club http://www.seekwealthy.com . I love online daing, especially the free dating.
