Ok, I am on a few dating sites as I am actually looking for something serious. These sites range from your common all-garden dating sites, through to the more adult sites. Pricing ranges from a flat fee for a set period (usually a month) through to buying credits with which you can send messages to the ladies on the site (messages usually work out at £1 or £2 a message – yes, expensive, but usually worth it)
Had a fair few dates so far, and the occasional overnight stay, mostly from the adult type sites.
My tips
1) Fill in a profile properly – helps if you are able to get a profile pic on public display, and fill in as much other info as possible. NO DICK PICS!!!
2) Once registered (a premium membership always helps), feel free to peruse the ladies, even those that don’t have a profile pic on their main page – sometimes they will have pics/a gallery on their bio page.
3) Wait for them to contact you – most of the ladies I have spoken to tend to check the “Who visited me” type pages on the sites as opposed to doing full searches. Also helps, when you receive a message off a lady, to check and see that she has previously looked at your profile and that the message is not a mass mailing that some sites allow.
4) When looking at pics, Tineye and the like are your friends.
5) Beware of “Bots” that are on there (some of these sites are full of them – both automated programmes and paid keyboard warriors there to take your cash – most are easy to tell, but some are tricky)
6) Take your time chatting – even on the more adult sites the women want to be “Woo’d”, and want to know you on a more personal level.
7) When you are ready to take things to Whatsapp/e-mail etc the easiest excuse for wanting to do so is, in my experience, running out of credits and not being paid for a couple of weeks.
8) If you are chatting to a couple of ladies at the same time, for fucks sake do not get their names mixed up - did that once and lost 2 stunners!!!
Sadly, at the end of the day you will always end up paying to get anywhere on these sites - myself, I am just about ahead of the game as opposed to what I would have spent punting, but there have been months when I was way behind.
Sorry if this has been a bit fluffy, but it has worked for me!!
