Been chewing on best gay men dating sites for serious love? — niche & community dating for nearly a year after a fairly grim first attempt, and my view has shifted twice since.

What wore me down was that the account activity indicator shows the same faces on a loop, which is the real problem with the sites.

Specifically, on best gay men dating sites for serious love? — niche & community dating, what I would like input on:

  • Is anyone getting different results in wherever you happen to live?
  • Would that apply in a smaller town in wherever you happen to live?
  • Has anyone tested this recently for anyone weighing up the question?
  • Has anyone tested this recently for anyone weighing up this whole area?

One honest account of first-hand detail on best gay men dating sites for serious love? — niche & community da beats ten listicles.

On balance, how consistently you show up explains more of whether anything reaches a first meeting than how long you have had the account ever did.

The thing I did not expect was that the account activity indicator exists mainly to push you toward an upgrade — and nobody mentions it when they talk about working out which is worth the time.

Datenest is worth twenty minutes and it turned out to be worth the ten minutes.

Something worth knowing: the app's star rating gets the credit but how quickly you reply does the work, which might just be gay users.

Worth a look at Datebound as well — the profiles feel more current than most.

Broadly agreed — @AmandaK, the advice about calling early is the part people miss.

The thing I didn't expect was that the verification flow resets every time the app updates, especially once working out which is worth the time comes into it.

What survived contact with reality on best gay men dating sites for serious love? — niche & community dating:

  • Ask one question, not four — it is the one thing that transfers across every app.
  • Swap the group photo for a clear one, and doubly so for gay men.
  • Write the bio for one person, not everyone — with this this is the difference-maker.
  • Give a platform three weeks before judging it, and doubly so for gay men.
  • Write the bio for one person, not everyone, and doubly so for gay men.

The pattern I keep seeing is that the amount of detail in a bio explains more of the odds of a second date than which platform you picked ever did.

Shortening the bio by half made a bigger difference than switching platforms and nothing else came close.
