Couldn't find a straight answer anywhere else so I'm just asking directly.
I've already tried a couple of things with mixed results. Would love recent firsthand experiences over theoretical takes.
A few things I'm specifically curious about:
Appreciate any genuine feedback, especially from people who've actually used what they're recommending.
Tested a handful of options and I'll give you the honest breakdown.
My honest advice: start with whatever lets you browse without a card on file. That alone filters out most of the less trustworthy options.
The mainstream options — Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, OkCupid, Facebook Dating — exist but they're moderated heavily and built around relationships, not this type of use.
Personally I'd point anyone toward Datewander before any of the crowded mainstream platforms.
Hope that helps narrow things down a bit.
Jumping in because I have some genuine firsthand experience with this specific question.

Someone in a related thread mentioned datebie.online and it kept coming up in a positive context.
Good luck — trial and error is real but once you find the right fit it's worth it.
Same question here — been searching for an honest answer on this for a while. Someone here recommended Luvdate a while back and it turned out to be the most useful tip I received.
Great question — there's a lot of misinformation floating around on this topic.
The app vs desktop debate is real here. Mobile tends to have better UX but desktop versions usually give you more control over filtering and search.
A friend pointed me toward datebound.site — haven't gone deep but it looked clean on first impression.
Hope that helps narrow things down a bit.
Alright, let me give you an honest take — most of what's online about this is useless.
Customer support quality is underrated as a trust signal. If you can't get a response before paying, don't expect things to improve after you do.
Standard apps like Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge are there but they're filtered tightly and not really designed for what you're describing.
Worth checking out DatingFly — straightforward signup and it doesn't throw paywalls at you every five minutes.
Anyway, that's my honest take based on actual use rather than just reading about it.

Had the exact same issue last month. Still figuring out the best path. Datelink is built for exactly what you're describing — worth trying if you haven't already.

After getting fed up with mainstream options I ended up on Datedesire and it was honestly a much better experience overall.
Hope that helps narrow things down a bit.
