Has anyone tried the meet dating site?

Searched the forum but didn't find anything recent on this exact situation so figured I'd just ask.

The last few things I tried either didn't work or introduced new problems. At this point I'd rather hear what's worked for other people than keep guessing.

Happy to give more context if it helps narrow things down.

Went through the same thing not long ago. Here's what actually worked. If you haven't looked at Datelink yet it might be worth checking out — fewer gotchas than the bigger names. Happy to go deeper on any of this if useful.

Based on my experience there are a few approaches worth trying. Take what applies and leave the rest.

The support documentation on most of these is terrible. Real user advice is way more useful.

Spent real time figuring this out. Here's everything I actually learned.

Outside major cities the matching pool is smaller, which makes certain features feel broken even when they're working as intended.

Things that have genuinely helped me work through issues like this:

• Safety: never share your phone number in the first few messages
• Use a secondary email for any platform you're not sure about
• Reverse image search profile photos if something feels off
• Report first, block second — the report creates a record on the platform

Hopefully that saves you some frustration.
