I've only been on this website for a month and I've already gone on a few dates, some went well... and others not so much! I do have a potential Sugar daddy already though! You quickly learn not to be shocked about the kinds of things you read. I've gotten some very dirty emails straight up asking for sex, but very crude! I'm not on this site to use anybody, so if I'm not interested I won't reply. I just got an email being called an "arrogant cunt" because I simply didn't write him back! LOL it makes me laugh, some guys on this site are assholes.
But that is real life for ya, I guess! If you can last to weed out the jerk offs, you will probably find a great guy for yourself!
Pros Some guys are very sweet and real!
Cons A lot of guys want sex and don't take rejection well haha
Takes awhile
Please stay away from this site. Never any local people on line and always the same people on the speeddate I was in a conversation with someone from Florida and I live in Oregon she had the same problem nobody local. I rate this site a2 at it's. Best on a scale of 1_100 very lame site couldn't wait for it to be over.best of luck to everyone.
To many of the other reviewers:
Just because you had no success on this site does not mean that it is: a scam, fraud, rip-off, con etc
First let me ask you this: are you actually in Japan?
As the name implies JapanCupid is primarily intended for dating locally within Japan. If you aren't in Japan then you are of zero interest to most of the users on there.
Even if you are in Japan, do you live in or near a big city?
Most people really can't be bothered to travel much more than 30~45 mins for a date. And this applies universally for all dating sites.
Then, did you actually make a half-decent profile?
Even if you did that did you send a reasonable 1st mail?
Oh wait, you only mailed all the obviously hot girls who are under 25?
Well I hope you are a grade A top choice man (and I mean for real, objectively , not wishful thinking) because those girls are so spoilt for choice that anything less than the best is not going to get a response.
As for the comments about not paying for dating site - why not?
I suppose you only go to bars that are free?
And you eat out of the trash too?
Things cost money, that is how life works, the price of a month on a dating site is often less than a night out drinking.
While it is fair to say that there are some very suspicious profiles that are probably fake, that doesn't mean that Japan Cupid created those profiles. In fact they were probably made by pick-up artist loser douche bags trying to steal some 'intel' from other male users.
I've been a paid member a couple of times, and each time I got plenty of responses and more than enough dates (including both hot and young girls - though frankly not most of the time).
I'm over 30, far from stunning, and not particularly good at Japanese. If you can't get any responses, let alone dates from this site, then you need to look seriously at why you are failing - it is most likely your expectations, or very shoddy profile/mails.
That said, the Japanese online dating scene is notoriously unforgiving for anybody who is not either white or at least not Asian, and JC is no exception to this.
Pros - Full of male users who still think it's 1990 and that Japanese women will swoon at their feet for no reason other than they are foreign (so if you are a guy who lives in the now rather than in the past this is great)
-Cupid Media is a general good and time tested system.
- Japan Cupid is popular among Japanese girls and well marketed towards to 20~30 age group in particular. LET ME BE CRYSTAL CLEAR ON THIS - you may still have a hard time getting dates with the cute/young girls, but they are on here and they are real!
- You can now delete your photos
- They have never auto-billed me (unlike worldfriends)
- It is not: fake, a scam, a con, a rip-off etc
Cons - Full of male users who still think it's 1990 and that Japanese women will swoon at their feet for no reason other than they are foreign (so if you are a girl you will have to wade through a lot of derps).
- No matter what you write on your profile/ in your mails 90% of the women who respond will just assume that you are a liar and/or a "playboy" . You are going to need to be thick skinned. Japanese women are much less polite on dating sites than they are in real life.
- Granted, the customer service are not that helpful.
- It is pointless if you do not pay for the high grade memberships - but then it's pointless going to bars if you aren't going to shower, shave and put on a clean shirt.
This website promises so much and has soooo many beautiful women that send email, wink, chat, etc...TOO BAD THEY ARE ALL FAKE AND ARE JUST TRYING TO GET YOU TO GO TO ANOTHER WEBSITE.
Don't waste your time and money. They have other sites as well, they too are a waste!!!!!! Too bad these fake, shitty websites have survived...too bad there is not a way to put them out of business.
We just want to have fun! Aren't there real women out there that just want to have fun too? Where are they???????????????
Pros NONE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cons The list is too long...but just suffice it to say that ALL the women that are HOT are fake and the others are fat ugly bitches...
sent a Pre-Paid VISA CARD for Monthly Fee $36.00. Only had 39.00 Cash on Visa card for a one Month Upgrade.. Military Cupid TRIED TO OVERCHARGE MY CREDIT CARD PAYMENT for a Higher a 2month Upgrade Commitment. It FAILED. Im GLAD!.
Pros Easy to be a sucker.
Cons Deleted all Refence to MILITARY CUPID.COMSITEfe my Email
account.
Ok. So if I'm to understand this right. Every gorgeous woman on this site is from Bartlesville, OK and live 210 miles away according to the profiles. They all type in broken English and for some reason or another state that they live in the US, but had to go back to Ghana or some other region of Africa. They tell you they love you after only chatting for about 5 minutes. Then, they claim that they have some kind of issue that ALL of them will ask for money. Unbelievable. Are you kidding me?!? I hope no one has fallen for this garbage. I wouldn't recommend this site to my dog. Good luck in finding happiness on that site.
Pros I haven't sent any money to the "girls" that have winked at me.
Also, they are nice looking pictures, but come on. Do they all look like models?!? I think not.
no wonder none returned replies. I see u all gals (writ on tablet). scumbuckets and scams mess up real (good) guys. and many guys r scum. (and gals?) other cupid media had mixed results. they had free days. now, who r worthy of my time, contacts? I've honest profile, so is it diff from rest? scams obvious to me. yes, ud. be. rejected professional fotos.... scam s.o.p. and they r too average and normal.
Cons actual paid members never followed up interest, mail.
Do not bother with this sight!!! I had two different men talking to me that I caught them in so many lies that I wanted to scream. One giuy kept me going for over 2 1/2 weeks!! Just to have him asking me for money to help him get out of a financial problem in West Africa!! The guy actually lied to me about how his wife died!! Really what jerks!! I am so done with this sight!!
Ive been frequenting adult dating sites for probably 10 years or more. I can be very active - messaging, posting to groups, webcamming - and i/we have met people from dating sites. Honestly, i am married so i am never looking for solo hookups - more looking for couples for us or sometimes a fella for my wifey. but i am the first to admit that a fine looking american chick will always catch my eye and Flings use of photos to create fake profiles from your area is disgraceful. Ive bought or renewed memberships based on the eye candy and - yes - that is stupid but who cares if i am willing to spend $20 to open a particularly hot local gals profile? To find that hers and the other 50 are all totally bogus really chapped my ass. I think i have spoken to a few real members from Fling - not sure - it was a while ago. I will never join them again.
Pros maybe there was a real person but i cant remember
the pics can be awesome but who cares if they are unreachable
Cons totally full of shit - i trusted them - they took me to the cleaners
fuck fling
This site was horrible. Lot of ""contractors", "engineers" or "constuctors" all saying the same thing. All want your email, yahoo id or phone number to chat better. I also had more pictures of penis's sent to me than I care to count. I don't know why men think that is the first thing women want to see. Horrible site will not recommend to anyone
This site is fake and should be removed by the authorities as you receive mails from young girls saying that they are interested, but they never want to chat on other systems, and they send you one liner a day or so, in which they do not really tell you anything.
You can also find prostitute that will accept to meet you providing you are paying.
If you stay there long enough, and try to get their guarantee, they find all kind of excuses not to give it to you and after few messages they erase your profile.
It is easy for them.
I joined Ourtime yesterday morning, only to be notified by my bank that my Dedit Card # had either been sold or stolen through them. Now the bank, for my protection, has had to cancel my card and will have to send me another card. just another scam artist trying to prey on the older generation
Pros no pros if you are going to steal from or help someone else steal from me
It really is true that there is a fee in addition to the bargain $19.99 and they are not honest about it up front. I was so surprised to see that on my credit card and contacted them via email twice and they were defensive and didn't care if I was satisfied or not with their service. There is no phone number available. When I posted a profile, but hadn't joined, it said I had 98 messages, so I joined. It turned out 94 of them were people who had clicked "I like your photo" or hit the flirt button, but hadn't left a message at all. Many were 1 person who had send me 4 "I like your photo" messages. The remaining 4 messages were not what I was hoping for. (The photos on the site advertisement are very misleading. Most of the men who contacted me were well into their 60's. You are better off on POF or Match. At least there people are more likely to send a real message rather than take the easy way out and just hit a button and expect you to contact them.
Pros None!
Cons The price is definitely not worth it. It has been a waste of time.
Only have fee days and I got like 590 people like my profile, more then 10 phone numbers, and at my first date I found what I was looking for, so dont quit searching here is the right place to date.
A lot of average looking or cute younger girls on the site who ask for playboy/magazine model allowances. If you are willing to pay a higher monthly allowance and want the very attractive women then there are better options than the SA site. A lot of fake profile/scam SB's on the site (which is to be expected), but they are not hard to weed out. You will have to be cold hearted in dealing with a SB when you meet and she is not as advertised if you want to avoid getting scammed.
A lot of SB's on the site will try to draw out the amount of time before meeting, or take very long periods of time between sending emails. This leads me to suspect that they are working for the SA site to keep you hooked so you renew your membership every month.
I did find one very attractive woman who is actually worth the allowance appearance wise and who has many common professional/personal interests with me. There is a chance to go forward with an arrangement.
One women found for one month of effort. If this is good for you then give the site a try. Of course others may have better results.
Pros Much better than a dating site in terms of responses.
Both sides can be upfront about what they want.
Cons Unrealistic expectations from many SB's considering their looks/talent/background.
Better options if you have the ability to give the higher allowances.
My friend and I joined this dating website for 2weeks and my friend got the shock of her life when she responded to a certain male member only to meet someone else for the first real meeting!! The first meeting went well as my friend really liked the guy who turned up but still got worried that the man looked different from the photo she saw on the dating site. She mentioned it to the guy who brushed it aside so my friend decided to agree to go on a second date with this different guy only to get to the bottom of the whole scam. On pressing the man about why he turned up to meet her instead of the man she saw on the photo, the guy gave in and confessed that the guy and profile on the dating site was his good friend helping him to find a good woman. To cut a long story short, the guy actually wanted a woman with a residence permit in the UK to marry so that he and his wife and kids get to join him in the UK. It turned out he was not looking for love but to save his back with a sham marriage. My friend told the guy that she would think about it and that added petrol onto fire as the guy now began to pester my friend to go and engage in a sham marriage at his solicitors to which my friend decided to show the conman that she was not a fool to fall for his fake charms. My friend blocked the man left, right and centre as he frantically tried to phone her and send messages. My friend lodged a complaint with Afrointroductions who seem to be powerless to stop this scam going on on their dating site. My friend has kept all her correspondence with Afrointroductions on file in case one or more women fall prey to this scam or worse still get into grave danger from these bogus men with evil agendas. I got fed-up and decided to remove my profile and so did my friend. TERRIFYING ORDEAL!!
Pros Meeting a variety of men without upgrading.
Cons Meeting scammers then Afrointroductions acts powerless. Members/scammers putting unsuspecting women at risk by arranging dates for their hidden fello-scammers who do not wish to be members on the site and remain in hiding tp perpetrate their hidden crimes, which is dangerous and risky to women.
There are real women on here. Most are average looking, some plain unattractive, and one or two are ok. When you join you will most likely receive an email or 2 from a hot woman who is most likely anything but her photo. She will email you, avoid meeting you and just linger on.
Avoid the site. It is a ripoff and complete waste of money.
Pros Easy to navigate. You know who is looking at your profile.
Cons Phony women, who say the same thing to every guy who gets on. Avoid!
There are scammers on every dating site out there. That being said, I have found more genuine women on this site than any other.
Don't be be a victim and don't be a whiner. Do your homework, know what to look for, and the warning sign will be easy to see.
There are plenty of resources on the internet to help you.
White women seeking black men, just go out locally and find them. But don't expect a husband from this, look up the statistics. The most successful interracial relationships of any sub group are Black Women and White Men, even more enduring than White/White and Black/Black.
Pros Real black women, seeking real relationships with white men.
Cons Honestly I've yet to see anything that's not present at any dating site.
Did you get duped like I did? It isn't $19.99 to join. There is a hidden fee , called an "upgrade fee" of $3.99 on top of the $19.99 that the site charges to join. I feel this is an unfair business practice, deceitful and deliberately misleading to call the $3.99 an upgrade fee when in fact, it is part of the cost of joining. If it costs $23.98 to join Ourtime.com, the website should be clear about that and not slip the customer a so-called, made-up "upgrade" fee. Don't they understand sticker shock of $25 for a $19.99 site is not the way to retain customers. This site gets a bad review.
Pros None.
Cons The site is not sophisticated and allows potential matches to send lots of I'd like it if you would send me a message. Well, I would like a real, "uncanned" message from a potential match.
I just started on Skout, and yes I have a "hood" handle above but I am an upstanding, suburban professional looking for a long term relationship. The nice thing is that you can chat with someone, the not great thing is that many look like they are from the hood.
I'll bet there are some really nice guys but I can see where the weirdo factor could come in, with such low filters. It is too easy to sign up.
From the women I have chatted with on OKCupid, Skout, Zoosk, all of them get pictures of junk from guys. And all kinds of sob stories. They seem to think that because they have no teeth and have been dumped 6 times, a woman will like the more. WTF?? Ignorant...
well you win some and lose some

When you join you will most likely receive an email or 2 from a hot woman who is most likely anything but her photo. She will email you, avoid meeting you and just linger on.
Avoid the site. It is a ripoff and complete waste of money.
Pros
Easy to navigate. You know who is looking at your profile.
Cons
Phony women, who say the same thing to every guy who gets on. Avoid!
good site

White Men seeking Black Women go to AfroRomance.com
Review about AfroRomanceThere are scammers on every dating site out there. That being said, I have found more genuine women on this site than any other.
Don't be be a victim and don't be a whiner. Do your homework, know what to look for, and the warning sign will be easy to see.
There are plenty of resources on the internet to help you.
White women seeking black men, just go out locally and find them. But don't expect a husband from this, look up the statistics. The most successful interracial relationships of any sub group are Black Women and White Men, even more enduring than White/White and Black/Black.
Pros
Real black women, seeking real relationships with white men.
Cons
Honestly I've yet to see anything that's not present at any dating site.
Deliberately Misleading Joiner "Upgrade" Fee
Review about OurTimeDid you get duped like I did? It isn't $19.99 to join. There is a hidden fee , called an "upgrade fee" of $3.99 on top of the $19.99 that the site charges to join. I feel this is an unfair business practice, deceitful and deliberately misleading to call the $3.99 an upgrade fee when in fact, it is part of the cost of joining. If it costs $23.98 to join Ourtime.com, the website should be clear about that and not slip the customer a so-called, made-up "upgrade" fee. Don't they understand sticker shock of $25 for a $19.99 site is not the way to retain customers. This site gets a bad review.
Pros
None.
Cons
The site is not sophisticated and allows potential matches to send lots of I'd like it if you would send me a message. Well, I would like a real, "uncanned" message from a potential match.

Review about ConnectingSinglesCons
Maybe worth the $$$??
Review about SkoutI just started on Skout, and yes I have a "hood" handle above but I am an upstanding, suburban professional looking for a long term relationship. The nice thing is that you can chat with someone, the not great thing is that many look like they are from the hood.
I'll bet there are some really nice guys but I can see where the weirdo factor could come in, with such low filters. It is too easy to sign up.
From the women I have chatted with on OKCupid, Skout, Zoosk, all of them get pictures of junk from guys. And all kinds of sob stories. They seem to think that because they have no teeth and have been dumped 6 times, a woman will like the more. WTF?? Ignorant...
Pros
Easy to sign up and chat with someone. Free.
Cons
Attracts riff raff because it is free.
