Hi I was just curious to see if anyone is a member of any other dating/friendship site, other than Connecting Singles?
After a lot of thought, and reading reviews, I joined "loveandfriends.com" several months ago, but I would NOT recommend it at all!! It was just a waste of money as far as I am concerned. They have a very peculiar set-up for "meeting" people, which really doesn't work and is extremely frustrating.
At the time I joined CS, about 12 months ago, I did join a few of the other free sites, just to see what they were like, but I have since cancelled all my memberships to them, and just stick with Connecting Saddo's Singles, as it is by far the best in my humble opinion.
It would just be interesting to know of other people's experiences with dating sites (if any).

Yay...a round of applause for me for leaving a comment
I did join another "Free" site, didn't stop there long though, there is easily 5 times more scammers on that site! There were no forums either. I like the forums here, a chance to interact with other folk and have a laugh or two. No, I am not expecting to find relationship material on this or any other dating site to be honest.....I have however made a couple of good friends, one in particular where we actually communicate off site, via phone,text and private emails.

Hi S thanks for your comment. I agree with you. The forums are a good place to have a chat and a laugh without any pressure. This site does have it's limitations, but compared with every other free site, it is amazing!
I'm taking all this down.. and making a note to santa so you will all get what you want for xmas.. dear santa....em they want men and we want ladies please.. that should do it!

Just the free ones for me. CS, 12 kisses & Fdating . Have met at least one person off each site so far. I also once paid for a months membership of girlsdateforfree & met 2 women off there. Also met 3 women off hotukdeals ( definately not a dating site though lol ) . Everyone i have met so far though lives miles away & some of them in foreign countries
Hi Darren Wow! There are sooooo many sites aren't there! I have never heard of any of those ones.
There are two annoying things that I have found...one is that you HAVE to join sites just to have a look around, and once you have joined, you then try and delete your details, they often don't get deleted! I still get e-mails from sites that I deleted myself from months ago!

Yes that is very true Jan. I still get emails from girlsdateforfree & loopylove ( missed that one before ) . Haven't been on either of those for a couple of years now though.

I have a hard time imagining how any other dating site can be as much fun as this. Mainly because I never was really interested, or thought I would be able to meet anyone....which I have. The forums and the good friends I've met here I believe are unbeatable. This is why I still log in and remain a participant of the site. But, I've never tried any others...and probably won't.

I'm a member of a site that charges approx. $AUD10.00 per e-mail. As you can imagine, I don't bother with that one at all.
Thanks for your comments. Seems like everyone keeps gravitating back to CS!! I think, for me, it's because it has so many features, but also it is a lot more orientated towards making friends. I have made friends from all over the world on this site, and a year on, am still talking to them, which is really nice. I think the more serious type of dating sites just puts the pressure on too much....Afterall, if Mr Right was to appear out of cyber space, he would have to be a friend first!
FWIW I have been on Metrodate for some months and so far, about 30 ladies have contacted me, from the USA, Latvia, Ghana, Russia, South Africa, or the Ukraine.
But I had one meeting with a 47 year old lady from Bromley last monday who turned up on time, looked like her profile and we spent a day together for lunch in Whitstable then went to Canterbury (her choice) but I found out she is only seperated and lied on the profile !!! However She assured me that she is totally free to see whomever she pleases with no repercussions as her exis now in America and it will be final in a fortnight.
But at least that was one more meeting than I have had here so far.
Think I have been on another 3 or 4 at some point only because I had to join to see other members profiles. Since I don't see the point in paying, if I do get any messages on these sites it means I can't read them so this is the only site I exchange messages on, not that I get many Enjoy the forums though.

Hi Juneau. Is this a dating site lol (joke). Personally, i think it better to meet people in real life through common interests but online is a nice way to chat with people in other countries.
I am on one other free site...but it os no where near as much fun as here...have tried a couple of pay sites..but none that I have tried have had forums like here...this is by far the best site I have been on...

Yeah, zillions of free ones. Only trouble is I forget my password. Then by time I remember it and try to log on the sites. I find I've been deleted for not logging in for yonks

Red 3 - Helga - Hi Why not just have one password that you CAN remember. such as supersonichelga ?
haunebu2: Red 3 - Helga - Hi Why not just have one password that you CAN remember. such as supersonichelga ?
Erm, I did used to have one password many, many moons ago but I got hacked on msn and someone found password and used it on all my sites. So, I make sure I have plenty now .. even though I can't remember most of them
