Asking here because the review sites are useless on apps are popular for younger women looking for older men.

I spent a couple of weeks on apps are popular for younger women looking for older men and close to all of the profiles worth a second look turned out to be worth the time. What actually mattered was that a small minority of the matches from the first week held up under a bit of scrutiny — that is the whole story really, especially where older men is concerned. What I care about most with older men is what people actually experience day to day.

Has anyone compared apps are popular for younger women looking for older men against the bigger names directly? Honest answers on older men only — I can read marketing copy myself.

Hope that is some use on older men.

Replying to Micah Stewart: partly, though apps are popular for younger women looking for older men comes with a caveat.

Anyone asking about apps are popular for younger women looking for older men should know that a decent proportion of the profiles in my area were more genuine than I expected. A profile that names specifics is worth more than any badge on the profile for older men. Where I agree: the basics of apps are popular for younger women looking for older men are not complicated.

On Claire's point, I see older men differently.

On apps are popular for younger women looking for older men, on the evidence I have the differences between options are smaller than people claim. The clearest signal was responses that arrive at human hours; the clearest warning was an account created days ago with hundreds of matches for older men. I think that conflates two separate things, and on apps are popular for younger women looking for older men the distinction matters.

Worth separating local hookups from long-term intentions when you weigh up apps are popular for younger women looking for older men — the same platform behaves differently for each.

Your results with older men may differ, obviously.

Replying to Claire: half agree with this on apps are popular for younger women looking for older men.

After the better part of a year of apps are popular for younger women looking for older men, in practice I would say the effort matters more than the label. Give it roughly six months before judging; most of the people in my age range responded like actual people in that window for older men. Where I part company: apps are popular for younger women looking for older men is far more location-dependent than people admit.

Worth a look alongside the big names: what people say on Datescout if you are weighing up older men.

Anyway, that is my read on apps are popular for younger women looking for older men.

That tracks with what I found on older men.

If older men is the question, the honest answer is that the bulk of the threads that went anywhere vanished after one exchange. The detail that changed my approach was that nearly all of the threads that went anywhere were clearly recycled, especially where older men is concerned. What I would add is that the gap between the older sites still running and this was smaller than expected, especially where older men is concerned. Roughly half of the profiles in my area led somewhere useful, which was slightly below the niche platforms in the same space, especially where older men is concerned. Speaking only for myself, results were streets ahead of what the reviews suggested, especially where older men is concerned.

That is close to what I saw with older men.

For older men, as far as I could tell what mattered was activity rather than branding. What I watch for now is profiles without stock-looking images, and what ends it is recycled model photos, especially where older men is concerned.
