It works if you're clear and patient. I stated in my bio I was looking for a serious, monogamous relationship. I attracted people looking for the same. The safety features gave me peace of mind. It's not cheap, and the six-month re-verification is a pain (I always forget my password!)
This site isn't a quick swipe thing. You need to invest in conversations. I did and found a genuine connection with someone. The verification process is annoying but necessary. My big complaint? The "Let's Mingle" feature sent my intro message to WAY too many people, felt spammy. I prefer to choose myself.
Hi, Lillie. Thank you for sharing your experience! 🌟 We’re glad you were able to find a genuine connection. The platform is designed to encourage meaningful interactions, which can require both time and credits. We understand that some features, like “Let’s Mingle,” can feel impersonal, and the Customer Success Team can guide you on using the platform more selectively to get the experience you prefer.
So i tried that 360° café room for a virtual date… gotta say, the graphics are nothing special, kinda basic. But the experience itself? Weirdly cool. Actually hearing someone's laugh right in the headset felt surprisingly personal and fresh, like a proper shared moment. It cost about 10 credits for a decent chat. Not something i'd do every day, but as a once-a-month thing to change up the routine? Yeah, maybe. It's a different way to connect on here for sure.
Hi, Sophie. We’re glad the 360° café experience added a fresh twist to your conversations! ☕ While graphics are simple, hearing someone in real time creates a personal, shared moment. Credit-based access helps keep these interactions meaningful and special.
What sets this site apart is the genuine quality of its members. Everyone is here for meaningful interaction, not games. I appreciated the clear pricing upfront—no hidden fees. I've formed a deep, rewarding connection with someone who shares my values and life outlook. For any single professional over 40 looking for substance, this is the premier platform.
Hi, Thelma. We’re glad our platform helps foster meaningful connections! 💬 Clear pricing and a serious, engaged community are designed to support genuine interactions, making it a great choice for professionals seeking substance and shared values.
After trying a few other sites where I felt invisible due to my age, this one was a breath of fresh air. I connected with an incredible man from Spain within two weeks. The video call feature let us bridge the distance instantly, and the conversations felt so natural.
Hi, Barbra. We’re thrilled our platform helped you connect quickly and naturally! 🌟 Video calls and meaningful conversations make distance feel smaller, creating genuine connections that are welcoming for members of all ages.
If you're a mature man looking for serious conversation with mature women, globally, this is your spot. If you're looking for a free hookup app, look elsewhere. The paywall is the whole point – it keeps it serious.
Hello. Exactly! 💬 Our platform is designed for mature, serious conversations. The credit-based system helps ensure members are genuinely invested, creating a space for meaningful, global connections rather than casual encounters.
Felt like throwing money into a void. But then I slowed down, stopped and actually read profiles. Started a thoughtful email exchange with a woman from New Zealand. Now we chat daily. The platform rewards patience. The design? Meh. But for fostering one real connection, it was worth it.
Hello. We’re glad patience paid off and you found a meaningful connection! 💬 Our platform is designed to reward thoughtful interaction, helping members build genuine relationships, even if the interface isn’t flashy. One real connection can make it all worthwhile.
My profile was set up by my niece. I've made two dear friends, one in Florida and one in Scotland. We don't use the fancy features, just the chat and sometimes email. It's like having a coffee chat with a friend, but online. The site is simple enough for me to use. I don't feel lost. For companionship, it's wonderful.
Hello, Marilyn. We’re glad our platform makes companionship simple and enjoyable! ☕ Easy-to-use chat and email features let members build meaningful friendships at their own pace, creating a comfortable space for genuine connection across distances.
I've seen the platform update slowly. It's getting better. I've had everything from brief chats to a year-long profound online relationship that ended amicably. This isn't just dating; it's a social network for the crowd who crave connection. Is it perfect? No. The credit system is its Achilles' heel. But the community it fosters is real and valuable.
Hi! We’re glad to hear you’ve experienced both brief chats and a meaningful long-term connection! 🌟
You’re right—the platform is more than just dating; it’s about genuine social connections. While the credit system can feel like a hurdle, it helps keep interactions secure and verified.

My bridge club friends talked me into this. I was nervous, but it's been lovely. I've reconnected with the joy of having a special someone to talk to every day, even if it's just through messages.

For a widower like me, this isn't about "dating" in the young sense. It's about companionship. Here I've found a wonderful lady, also a widow, and we share our memories, our days, our thoughts. It's a deep connection.

Tech guy here. The backend (real people, good intents) is solid. The frontend (the app and website) needs a major upgrade imo. It's not intuitive, the UI is outdated. I stayed because I genuinely made a friend. But they need to invest in their tech.
Hi! We appreciate your honest feedback. 👨💻
It’s great to hear that the platform connects genuine people and fosters real friendships. We also hear your point about the frontend and UI—upgrades could definitely make navigation smoother and more intuitive.

There is really no shortage of negativity on the internet. And we know people tend more to leave a bad review than a positive one. Obviously. Well I make up my own mind... And yes I see the merit in a lot of complaints (cost especially), but some I don't think hold water. It's been an pretty enjoyable experience for me so far.

Working security nights. App is my coffee mate. People in other time zones reply fast. Plain reading is free, but if boredom wins and I start voice, credits. No issues with fake accounts. Looks like office intranet though. Overall, pricey but beats empty hallway.
Hi! We’re glad to hear the app keeps you company during night shifts and connects you with people across time zones! 🌍☕
It’s great that you find plain text chats free and reliable, and that fake accounts haven’t been an issue. The credit system helps maintain secure interactions, even if it feels pricey.

Maybe I'm the older demographic... I use filters for my search... There are many compatible gentlemen I've met here. Just use filters. Complaints about bad results. Just use filters.
Hi! We’re glad to hear you’ve found many compatible connections using the filters! 😊

Answer: Yes, I am a woman, I had been on the dating. Communities website for almost 3 months, I know very well as after they sent the email, I have to pay 10 credit to read each email. Even pictures, photo, video clip. If they are real why after chatting for months we already talking about marriage and still they refused (not one but 4 men from that website) to give real contact, email and wechat ID. In China wechat is very common even 80 years old have wechat. The men on thus site all claimed too old for wechat. That is really wired. Please be careful, those who said good review here, may be also their people. I am one of the victim who lose 5000 USD. I knew better.
Answer: Hi Robert! Absolutly not! All messages are created only by users. To make chat invite you can use Mingle service. Best regards, Alex
Answer: There are real people behind the photos. But they do not look for a real partner. You just pay and chat people under their profiles. Maybe just operators.
Answer: Yeah, I totally agree with you Regina. I tried asking them to keep in touch on Instagram or Facebook, and I did not receive any responses. Moreover, they kept sending me the same messages and emails. I've been wondering whether they are real or not.
Answer: No, you will not! If you use the tokens and do not realize that it's by the minute it goes fast... also, emailing costs more and they must get paid to chat with you! All the men are fake!
Answer: You can not exchange contact details in the dating.com because the person whom your chatting with is a staff of the site pretending to be the person in the picture.
Answer: Dating.com is a bad site at, they specialize in scamming people. They cover scammers. When I give all the evidence to prove Fake membership of the website, but they always give the reasons of being unintentional, irresponsible, wasting time, going around. I spent a lot of money for a member, but they returned me the wrong amount and even said it was their good deed. Here, I am the one who gives money, but I receive all Fake people, don't think you are charitable for others. There are many Fake members in Dating.com. I have proof, proving they're fake. I ask Dating.com to pay me back for the exact amount I spent.
Answer: Hi! We accept debit cards and PayPal. If you have any issues purchasing the service please contact customer support at [email protected]
Answer: More than you could afford! The site is a scam
