My take: most matches go nowhere and that is normal rather than a failure — happy to be argued with on that one. What are the international dating sites with the most active US users?
My take: consistency matters more than intensity here — small thing, but it adds up.
Having tried a few, the honest answer is that it varies enormously by area — it is not complicated, it is just easy to skip.
- After one bad experience I kept early conversation on-platform instead of moving to a private app
- From what I have seen, support response time is a decent proxy for how the site is run — your mileage may well differ.
- Matched the other person's message length instead of writing essays, which cut the noise dramatically
My take: the people posting about success are a tiny and unrepresentative sample — your mileage may well differ.
