Looking for honest experience with best place to find an active online dating — what worked, what did not.

Where best place either works or falls apart is what a normal exchange looks like end to end.

For me the detail that decides it with best place is whether it's worth keeping a second account for it.

Open to being wrong about best place to find an active online dating if someone has better information.

@Rachel makes a fair point, though with best place I would add that what actually happened was less reliable than it looks from outside.

Most of my results on best place came down to one habit — treat the first message as a filter.

Where I went wrong with best place was that I would take silence personally.

Where best place either works or falls apart is whether anyone replies without a photo attached.

What matters more than the feature list on best place is what happens when you decline to share more.

this one is the other one people mention whenever best place comes up.

Respectfully @Kyle, best place isn't that clear-cut. What the pool looked like was stronger at the weekend.

If you take one thing from this thread on best place: keep the conversation on the platform until you meet.

Came back to best place after a break. Over roughly six weeks, what the follow-through looked like was behind on everything except volume.

@Jennifer Price I read that differently. On best place, what the logs showed was worse than the reviews suggest for me.
