MatureUniStudent - I've been on match and okcupid for ages and after a particularly frustrating few weeks I've just joined POF last night. Seems to be more traffic but the average level of intelligence seems particularly low, although there are some good people if you hunt for them! Everyone seems to have kids though which doesn't bother me, just seems odd as at my age (32) it's a minority of people that have kids on match and okcupid.
I decided to try something different and went to a singles night on Wednesday too. It was full of funny, intelligent, successful and good looking women! All but 3 of the men cancelled in the half hour or so before the even was supposed to start so there were about 5 times as many women, many of them not knowing that all the men had cancelled and to some extent wasting their night a bit (although all the girls got on well, or seemed to). Shouldn't blame the guys, I guess each of them separately has every right to cancel if he can't make it and can't know that everyone else was going to too. Just a bit annoying. Of the men that did come, 1 is only here for a year, 1 was quite rude and the last one looked mostly at his shoes when he was talking to me!
Did anyone see the article about the most messaged woman on okcupid (www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2602965/Men-try-kiss-10-minutes-meeting-Meet-tattooed-stunner-whos-popular-date-OKCupid-having-choice-men-ruining-love-life.html)
