One of the first dating websites I wrote favorably about was Plenty of Fish, but this was over a decade ago before the idiots in charge of their online dating service started using data analysis and now, in 2024, artificial intelligence.
Using numbers to monitor DATING behavior is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard, especially when most success stories DO NOT report their success to the dating website they signed up for.
It takes a special person to actually report their success story. I write extensively about Foreign Affair which is an international dating service, and most of the success stories are NEVER reported.
Although the intent of Foreign Affair is to help mostly older men or mature men find love, not everyone using the service gets married because not all the men who use Foreign Affair want to get married; some of the men using Foreign Affair are in bad relationships or bad prior marriages and they simply don’t want to be alone, so they come to us at Foreign Affair because, unlike these horrible online dating websites, Foreign Affair revolves around in-person meet-ups.
At POF, they base their entire dating website on prior data and feedback, ignoring the reality that most humans, after paying or using a service, have the right NOT to report their success or displeasure.
The morons at Pof have adapted a system in which they imagine that they know what their users want based on the data entered into their system, which is similar to why eHarmony is one of the worst dating websites ever created.
Just because Pof.com doesn’t require the same amount of data as eHarmony doesn’t mean that DATA isn’t the problem. Online dating is not a “make money online” gimmick in which the owners are trying to see how many people buy.
Dating is based on liberty and freedom and if women for example are being bombarded with messages from men they’re not interested in, there’s a simple fix to that problem a “block” button.
When it comes to online dating data, you don’t make SWEEPING changes; you have to allow the customer the ability to pick and choose what they want. If a woman, for example, is not interested in older men, then she can put that in her profile, therefore limiting who can contact her.
But what Pof did, is they made these decisions for their free and paid members, and this is one of the reasons they’re stuck paying to promote their crappy dating website to avoid going bankrupt.
If you’re not aware, Pof used to be the most RECOMMENDED dating website in the world; people would recommend them for free, but not anymore, because chances are if you’re reading this, you’re experiencing firsthand why Pof is such a horrible dating website in 2024.
Men looking to date Internationally.
I noticed some unfortunate things about a decade ago, namely suicides were up, because of my profession, I attributed these suicides to loneliness, a lack of purpose in life, and the feeling that men and women in Western countries were feeling stuck and limited.
Unfortunately to date, I have not been able to get through to Western Women, however, I have been able to get a lot more men to consider trying Foreign Affair. This is an international introductions service, were men of all ages can meet women from around the world who prefer their own happiness over a culture controlled by social engineers or a ghost entity dictating to them who they should and shouldn’t be dating.
Foreign Affair is not just a dating website. It’s a dating service, and I guarantee you that if you take it seriously, you’ll find yourself hopeful about your dating life again. It’s painful when you find out that there are forces that want to tell you who you should date, basically trying to give your love life that death nail; Foreign Affair completely turns around that narrative and brings people together.
When you visit Foreign Affair consider reading all the testimonials, there are audio testimonials, video testimonials, pictorial testimonials, written testimonials, and of course, testimonials on their radio show, the only problem men face on Foreign Affair I would say is the feeling of discomfort.
Obviously international dating isn’t for everyone, a lot of men are very specific about their love life and that’s fine, but for those men who aren’t afraid to think outside of the box, consider Foreign Affair because as you might have noticed match.com, POF.com and many sites like it are very robotic in their approach to online dating.
I don’t think they’re intentionally alienating people because I’m certain POF is trying to give their users a more pleasant experience, but you see now why match.com has been struggling for years to retain members. men are usually the main financers of dating websites, without older men, those dating websites fail, but men also are getting the short end of the stick, because these old dating websites don’t want to rock the boat, challenge people or create more dating algorithms.
It’s simple a lot of women have been told it’s social suicide to date older men, and that’s fine, but if you’re an older man, you’d know that deep down a lot of women don’t feel that way, a lot of women are NOT sex-craved maniacs who base their happiness on men’s ages and physical appearances, a lot of women simply want to be happy and because some dating websites follow and don’t lead, as a man you have to weigh your options! If POF isn’t working for you don’t suffer in silence, consider a change in your approach to dating, open up your options!
