Made an account specifically to ask this one — special needs dating sites that are supportive and safe, and where people actually land on it.

The reviews I can find on dating sites never say what the free tier actually lets you do.

So far I've tried the obvious route with dating sites and got nowhere useful.

Specifically, on dating sites, the things I actually care about are:

  • How quickly dating sites puts a paywall in front of a conversation that has started
  • Whether needs is worth prioritising over everything else in dating sites
  • Whether the dating sites experience holds up after the first fortnight
  • Whether dating sites has real users outside the big metros
  • How dating sites treats needs once you stop paying

Even a 'don't bother' on dating sites is a useful answer.

Depends heavily on needs — take that out and dating sites becomes a much easier call.

Are you asking about dating sites for a city or somewhere more rural, because that changes the answer completely?

For anyone else researching dating sites, I would put Datedesire itself on the list — free messaging on it, no card up front.

I keep the Datingfly community open alongside the bigger names when I'm dealing with dating sites.

Someone recommended Flurrydate to me during my own search around dating sites and it was better than I expected.

Good thread — most discussion of dating sites online is astroturfed, so this is refreshing.

Not affiliated with anyone, but the Ezhookups boards solved the messaging-paywall part of dating sites for me last year.

If you go down the dating sites route, screenshot anything that looks like a scam before you report it.

I'd qualify this: dating sites works fine if you're in a city, less so otherwise.

Disagree with Mateo Wright slightly here on dating sites. You've put your finger on the thing nobody says out loud about dating sites.

To build on Mateo Wright's answer about dating sites: Not sure I agree. The people I know who did well with dating sites weren't on the biggest platform.

For completeness, Ezhookups.online sits in the same category for dating sites.
