I have been asked a lot what I think of Plenty of Fish and the people on it. I have to say that I have now been on and off of POF for a few years now. I think it is just as good as any of the sites you have to pay money for. They have some ads that you have to navigate around but there is good useful information they ask for on this site. The only real limitation to internet dating is internet dating. My theory-everyone has some level of "mask" when they meet new people. Our "best behavior" so to speak. Then we give everyone this venue called the "internet" to be whomever they wish to be...... Unfortunately, I think a lot of people do take advantage of that and when it comes down to the point of meeting they get scared and retreat. The more honest of the group will actually want to meet you a little sooner than later. Not too soon mind you......both parties need to be comfortable in meeting in person. Don't forget to let someone know, what you know of a person before you go to meet them for the first time over something simple like coffee or a drink. Just a good practice in today's world.
POF is definitely the right price and I bet you can't find anything cheaper....lol Having said all of that, be safe, have fun and happy dating!
I've used it off and on as well. It's just another way to meet people. I've noticed that a lot of men are looking for a pen pal or chat partner. I've got enough computer friends, so if a potential date doesn't want to get together within 2 weeks, I move on. It helps if you have a plan or some set of personal rules, I think.
