POF : Are other dating sites better?

POF : Are other dating sites better?


Do any of you pof users have experience of using other dating sites, and how do they compare?

I’ve been on maybe half a dozen dates from pof and 3 of them, including the latest one tonight (**esp** the one tonight), have been absolute grade-A disasters. I’ve gone over them loads in my head and I honestly can’t see that I did anything wrong on any of them. So I’m thinking maybe pof has a certain, idk, type of personality that uses it, and that’s just not compatible with mine?
A lot of friends used to talk about Guardian Soulmates (in the UK) but I’ve looked on there and it said there were 14 matches in my area :/ Which doesn’t make me want to pay the massive subs for it.

Then I looked at eHarmony but I hadn’t realised it had this really weird Christian subtext to it all till I researched after the personality questionnaire was asking all sorts of questions about how ‘spiritual’ i am and how important religion is to me etc.!

  1. I was advised that OKCupid could be better because it has a matching system.

    Honestly, I’m getting better results from a phone app called Coffee Meets Bagel.

  2. The websites are getting dated actually, this whole fill this out and we’ll match you up based on your answers is total bullshit and they are guessing.

    Just like the attention span of internet users is under a three-minute window, here is a video explaining some the hidden things about popular sites.

    A lot of these sites and apps are owned by or operated under Match.com umbrella now, if you want to toss money at them that is your choice, you’ll get the same results. People think * »if I put money into it those will be the serious people looking to date »*, paid subscribers will get the same results, but because they paid for it they have to tell themselves something for losing that money. Nothing like dropping $50 and getting nothing in return.

    With POF giving you all this information about if they read your message, when they did this or did that, really it just gives you creepy stalker-like powers.

    Like those people that are getting to know someone and get all bent out of shape days later because they see them logged in all the time, then bitch accusing them of messaging others, not realizing they were logged into the mobile app that takes three steps to log out of it. *You are single for a reason if you ever did this!*

  3. I have tried Match, Eharmony, Okcupid, and POF the best one was POF. I had the best matches on there and the best luck. Match I rarely got messages, then once my profile expired I had like 10 messages that I could not read. Eharmony was a joke and a friggin scam beyond belief. You had to be a paying member to see pictures of people. All the matches they sent me were either 400 miles away or they no longer used the site. Anyone I was interested in ended up being not a paid member. I figured I would give it one last shot and 2 days into it I tried to cancel and they would not refund me anything. They kept charging me for like 6 months until I told him to stop or I was gonna sue.

    OKcupid seemed like all people wanted on there was sex and I didn’t want a hookup I was looking for something real.

  4. uk here too

    I think okcupid has a better quality of women than pof (for NE anyway) – but there’s a lot less of them and they reply a lot less

    (maybe they’re just more likely to ignore me because they’re ‘better’ women)

    I was on guardian soulmates years ago and it was great, looked to sign up again but useless for matches near me

    I think it all depends how good looking you are and how old you are, I did ok online years ago, but have almost zero replies now (36yrs old)

  5. It really depends on what your looking for. Pof has been extremely hit or miss this last go round (Nov 17 – current, metro area). I’ve been on around 20 dates and 3 turned into fwb or one night stands and one was a activity partner. Pof just seems to attract a low commitment crowd, imo. My last LTR I found on okcupid and I’ve actually had good luck on tinder lately so maybe those might be good options to try.

  6. Basically I was really disillusioned with trying to find a ‘nice’ girl, and also I was talking to my ex, who was going to see her bf for the weekend. So I was like “eurggh no one is ever interested in me! :(” feeling sorry for myself.
    Then this girl wrote to me on Pof being really flirty and sexual. So I thought fuck it, maybe it’ll be fun? And maybe if it was it could turn into something later?”

    So I end up at her house and I was not having a nice time, I didn’t want to be there almost instantly. Then she went to the loo and her phone screen lit up next to me and I saw a message that made it clear she was interested in money not me, and even better than that, she was married.

    So I confronted her on it and she was very apologetic and stuff, but I’m just like thank god I saw that before anything happened. I feel like posting a link to warn other people but idk if I could get in trouble. I’ll show you her if you want to PM.
