So, in regards to answering the thread regarding “Fraudulent Communications on Match.com,” I’ve linked back to this blog to avoid all the annoying pop-up advertising on the prior forum, which even I found annoying.
Based on my reviews, as I’ve stated plenty of times: NO, Match.com is not a scam. It is legit, and I can’t prove concretely that Match.com is intentionally allowing scammers on their platform.
What I can say is that many of the men who actually took me up on my offer to try Foreign Affair—which is an online international introductions service—have all thanked me for changing their love lives for the better.
In the interest of transparency—and I’ll keep saying this over and over again—if you’re going to use Foreign Affair only for its online dating services, it’s not worth it in my opinion. Yes, obviously you have to book singles tours via Foreign Affair online, but I write about Foreign Affair extensively for their introductions services, which is why serious men join.
Match.com for Men Over 40, 50 Reviewed
In the interest of transparency, the common complaint men have with Match.com—which I’ve stated is still one of the best dating websites in the world—is that as you age, not only do your search results get limited, but if you upgrade, you still have to deal with scammers, which are everywhere and on every dating website.
Yes, absolutely, an argument can be made that Match.com could do more. But in case you’re unaware, most dating websites are bleeding money—including Match.com—and hiring additional people to solve those problems is likely not something Match.com wants to do.
If you’re not aware, Foreign Affair has to abide by the International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA). Initially, this put international dating at a disadvantage because it’s an additional layer of regulation meant to prevent human trafficking. However, as I’ve told my followers, in time, this now works to your benefit—especially when you factor in costs and time when dating internationally using an introductions service vs. online dating websites like Match.com, which basically force you to figure it out on your own.
As men age, our time becomes more valuable. So, although men in their 20s and 30s have the time to sift through all the scam profiles on Match.com, men at 40 don’t have that type of time to waste. This is why I don’t think men should ignore Foreign Affair.
Furthermore, with Foreign Affair, you don’t have to worry about being scammed. What you do have to worry about, however, is your maturity level. The women using Foreign Affair aren’t looking for immature men. The women use Foreign Affair for its reputation of finding them quality.
The Incorrect Perception of International Dating
I know the perception among Western women and men is that international women are “easy,” but Foreign Affair does not cater to men looking for a fling. These women—unlike most Western women—are actually looking for marriage, for love, for an actual connection. And they prefer Western men because Western men, in general, treat women very well.
Obviously, a lot of Western women—who, because of the giant welfare state, tend to marry aggressive Western men who only want them for sex, leaving the good men to fight for the leftovers—want to pretend that foreign women think the same way they do, imagining Western men as a commodity that’s easily replaced. But that’s far from the truth.
Serious foreign women who are looking for marriage are ready for a real, genuine relationship. There are international dating websites that are cheaper than Foreign Affair, but that’s because they don’t have an in-person dating feature like Foreign Affair does.
You get what you pay for. And if you use those free international dating apps, you’re going to run into the same problems you’ll find on Match.com, which are fake—or even real—profiles of people who will message you asking for money.
This is a waste of not only time but also money. Why put yourself through that, especially when you’re 40 or older? When you visit Foreign Affair, you’ll notice all of the testimonials.
For most men who use our service, they’ve genuinely never experienced anything like it before. If your perception is that this won’t work for you—it won’t. Thoughts become things. But Foreign Affair is designed for the brave. That’s the filtering process. That’s what’s made it a success.
Based on My Research, Match.com is NOT a Scam
Foreign Affair is not something to brag about. You use its services, find love and happiness, and move on with your life. Back to the topic of Match.com—I’m fair and balanced. I run a business, so I understand the costs associated with running a business and how problematic scammers can be.
Some dating websites have implemented automated scam-detection tools, but these tools often delete legitimate members because those users behaved in a way the system flagged as suspicious.
So, I understand the problem Match.com has. But who cares? At the end of the day, life is short, and you have to ask yourself if you have the time to waste on all of these dating websites or apps that make you pay to take all the risks.
Foreign Affair has actual singles tours where you meet women face to face. If you’re not afraid to travel alone, what are you waiting for? Dating shouldn’t be this complicated—but it is, especially online. Foreign Affair is about saving you time. If you try international dating without Foreign Affair, you’re going to run into a lot of “women” who will ask you for money.
A lot of “women” use these dating websites to get money from Western men, and there’s no vetting process. You have to qualify as a woman to be a member of Foreign Affair. This post ended up being longer than I anticipated, but I wanted to drive home these points. I’m responding to questions regarding men’s experiences with Match.com and alternatives. God bless you in your search for love. Give us a call on the Foreign Affair website during regular business hours if you have any questions.
