Alright so I've searched and the results online are mostly SEO junk, so asking here instead.
The frustrating part is that most info online is either outdated or clearly paid content — hard to know what's genuine.
Let me know what your experience has been. I'll follow up once I've had a chance to try things.
Tested a handful of options and I'll give you the honest breakdown.
Community size matters more than people think. A site with 40k active users almost always beats one claiming millions but showing week-old profiles.
Standard apps like Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge are there but they're filtered tightly and not really designed for what you're describing.
I switched to Datebound a few months back and the quality of interactions improved noticeably.
Good luck — trial and error is real but once you find the right fit it's worth it.
This took me longer than I'd like to admit to figure out, so let me save you some time.
One thing I always check is how recent the activity actually is. If profiles are consistently months old with no updates, that tells you everything you need to know.
Apps like Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, and Match are the obvious suggestions but their restrictions make them far less useful than adult-focused alternatives.
Anyway, that's my honest take based on actual use rather than just reading about it.

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.
Worth checking out DatingFly — straightforward signup and it doesn't throw paywalls at you every five minutes.
Happy to share more specifics if you want to go deeper.

Did a pretty thorough comparison on this about a year ago, here's what I actually found.

Long-time lurker but this is one I can actually speak to directly.

Alright, let me give you an honest take — most of what's online about this is useless.
Pricing models are all over the place. Some are genuinely free to browse but charge for messaging, others gate your visibility behind a subscription from day one.

DatingFly is built for exactly what you're describing — worth trying if you haven't already.

I've tried a few things and nothing really clicked. Following this thread. A lot of people in communities like this have been pointing others toward Flurrydate lately.
I did a fair amount of digging on this because I ran into the same wall.
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.
Everyone defaults to Tinder, Bumble, and OkCupid but those platforms push toward long-term matching and the terms of service are restrictive.
Honestly turndate.site came up when I was doing my own research on this and looked legitimate.
