Lots of people, guys and girls, recommend Plenty of Fish online dating (which I dub Plenty-Of-Flesh) because it’s free. I’ve been a member there twice now, and I haven’t been impressed either time.
The site places a lot of emphasis on photos, which has led to people judging one another not by their messages, but solely by looks. I’m not impressed with the forum moderator either, who has a firm yet obnoxious and stuck-up attitude to posts that raise questionable suggestions issues, even with the site.
Many of the people there have been rude and/or full of hot air, both in the forums and through messaging. Even the friendliest of messages went ignored - the sent messages list proved extremely helpful in finding out just where they were going.
Plenty of Fish advertises itself as a dating site, which is my biggest disappointment: the only people who’d enjoy Plenty of Fish are the average loud, outgoing people who already have “great” lives and have no intention of being serious.
As with most other places I’d suggest someone experience it for themselves, if only for them to reach their own conclusion. I’ve had much better results with Match and Perfect Match.
Hi, I've been a matchmaker for many years and have experience with just about every dating site out there. I have thoroughly reviewed and rated the best
look folks, god made everyone different for a reason. big, little, skinny, fat whatever. everyone has there own preference and you can not change what a person’s perference is. i myself am a bbw and 99% of the men i have dated were skinny and liked a bbw, so if you are a bbw don’t give up, there are men out there that do like bbw’s. you have to pray for the people who are shallow and hateful and judge people period, not just for looks. whether on earth or in heaven they will get theirs, don’t worry!
I have also found that MOST not ALL but “alot” of people on the POF site (and many more) are looking for nothing more than a fling or sexfest. Many are married and that ruins it for the ones that are honest like myself. I am not online to chat~chat~chat all day either. I am here as merely another avenue to possibly meet somneone for a long lasting relationship as I know that we never are sure where or when that special person might be right in front of our eyes.
SO…IF there are any decent real MEN~> not boys,in NW-Central WI or Eastern MN..or willing to relocate,IF all is GREAT and you are looking for MUCH more than~~>meaning more than a quick fling for physical satisfaction ONLY, get to me I want a heck of alot more out of life than that!

I was on and off POF a few times. I never posted a photo. I wanted to try to form a friendship before the guy knew what I looked like. I met one guy in particular. We had numerous emails, text messages and phone calls over a long time span. Got along great. We lived quite a distance apart. I had no way of putting a photo on line. I actually sent him still photos in the mail. The jerk wouldn’t even send them back. He probably sleeps with them under his pillow. I am not a photogenic person, told him that, and what do I get… “Delete, not read” mail. How inconsiderate can one person be. I just wish everyone would know that even without meeting in person, the way people tell them they are not interested hurts people just as much as it would if you met and dated. He broke my heart (as a friend) and truly gave me a phobia of on line dating. Have some “class” and be a man. If you were so perfect, you probably wouldn’t be on an on-line dating sight. I could only dream that the guy that I am referring too can figure this out. I can only wish that I could say who he is and where he’s from just to prevent any other woman from being led on and then crushed. But then I think, how fortunate I am that I never got sexually involved with such a fool. I thank God everyday that he showed me how much of a jerk he is right up front. This is for you “Kev”. I see you’re still there, I got married. Met someone the old fashioned way.
