Was it a mainstream one, or one you paid for?

My brother met his lovely wife on a paid subscription site...... I think it was match. Com.

Poor niave soul was scarred for life from the likes of tinder etc 😂😂😂

Eharmony 10 yrs ago. Don't think tinder existed then. Tried a couple of free sites before that but they were full of weirdos or people who just wanted hookups. Found with eharmony that the fact you paid for it meant more people were genuinely looking for a relationship. Had a couple of nice dates before I met DH and then never looked back

I met my DP on plenty of fish. I never paid for any upgrades. At first I only dated those who paid for their subscriptions as I thought they'd be more serious about dating. I changed my MO and met an absolute bellend. Then met my DP who only ever went on there when his colleagues were pressuring him to get a GF. 5yrs later we're due our second child soon.

My brother just married his first ever Bumble date.

I met my late dp on POF, we were together nearly 5 years.

NotTheMrMenAgain · 22/12/2021 04:56

Met my DP almost a year ago via eHarmony. Had messages from lots of decent sounding men, only a couple who seemed a bit odd. Three days after joining I was messaged by DP and we've been inseparable since - he's the loveliest man I've ever met!

Met my late DH on okcupid, just before I was about to deactivate the account through sheer despair.

When I went back on the scene I met current chap on Hinge. First date but I was very very selective about parameters and who I met up with. It took a while on OLD before I decided to go on that one date.
