If you've OLD which app?

So if you've OLD and had success; which app did you use and what kind of thing did you put in you're profile or look for in a guy? OLD is killing me right now; thought I'd found someone different. He seems genuine and there was no sexual talk etc. Went in two dates, had intimacy on third and he's gone cold without reading messages....! Before I totally give up; help!

Also first few dates were so good, talking for hours on end without any gaps!

I've used match....had two relationships from it both a disaster and the men absolute pyschos. Went on tinder as a bit of a laugh and now in a long term relationship bought a house and expecting a child....not what I was expecting from tinder!

I've had most success in POF and tinder and not so much on Match but every site will bring a different experience for each person. I've written a few brief sentences about me in my profile, hopefully just enough to make someone want to ask a question! I dont really say what I'm looking for but do say I dont want a ONS. Good luck and above all, have fun 😃

Hinge for me, never done OLD before, am now 48, and it’s fab! A few weeks in, have kissed a couple of frogs, but have met someone with ‘potential’ - we went away for the weekend Grin

I like that you are the one in control as a female - you can message anyone, but they can only like/comment on your profile and so you decide who to communicate with.

It can be free, but I paid, and it was definitely then an improved experience.

I'm not sure there's a best site for success. It really depends on who you actually encounter, and loads of people are on several of them at once anyway. It's more about which interface you like best.

I met DP on tinder. We've bought a house, are getting married and we're having a baby. But, I was totally disillusioned and convinced that I'd never meet anyone I liked on OLD, when DP popped up.
