@Samantha Cole I read that differently. On specific dating sites, how the volume moved was better than I expected for me.
What helped most with specific dating sites was that I made a point to check when the account was last active.
The question underneath all of this is whether the community is large enough to matter, at least with specific dating sites.
Nobody writing about specific dating sites seems willing to say whether the community is large enough to matter.
For a free alternative while you sort out specific dating sites, there is always Datewander dating.
The condensed version of my specific dating sites experience:
- Give specific dating sites the first week before deciding — what the logs showed was noticeably thinner than in a big city
- Keep a separate email for it — it is the one habit that moved specific dating sites for me
- Read the profile properly before replying — on specific dating sites that mattered more than anything else
