I would like to share with you my own experience. It seems to me that first of all, you should study all the myths about these sites here https://skyrisecities.com/news/2020/03/condo-vs-house-what-you-should-know since I think it will be useful for you then pay attention to such things there. I hope it will help you too.
It seems to me that if you are looking for dating sites, then maybe this article on this weblink https://www.lcarscom.net/online-dating-is-the-future-ladadate-review/ that will help you to learn more about the future of online dating sites on the Net. You may also read about it and learn more I think.
At this time, I have one great problem because I can't find good dating site to achieve my precious goal: do not be alone and have a partner for good conversation and sex. Do you have ideas?

You know, recently I saw an article about online dating in with young people with the help of social networks and this article is on this link https://sharpologist.com/diversion-a-girlfriend-should-be-younger-a-social-stereotype-or-reality/ so I thought it would be very interesting for you too, so you can also try to study this topic in more detail now.
Can I join your conversation to help you with this issue? Oh, it seems to me that if you are interested in the topic of dating sites, here are these interesting facts about the site https://omtimes.com/2020/06/older-people-soulmate/ as some of them can help you manage everything, so I wish you good luck.
"have him text me for a change" after literally telling the guy she's busy all weekend. So little awareness
Man, this girl is a lot pretentious and a lot awkward. She doesn't match Nick's energy at all! She does a lot of evaluating instead of simply observing/learning about Nick. I'm surprised Nick didn't feel shut down
Oh boy...we were having a drink and everything was going well, and then I noticed a strange bruise in his arm...I asked and he admitted having strangled a dog the day before. I walked away.
