Review of OKCupid as of 12/12/2024

Post Reply New Topic

One thing big that's changed over the years on OKCupid is they swamp the male user with foreign women, mostly from Third World countries, that no doubt, want a green card. I would say 70% of matches are foreigners. I think that is because of math. There simply are not enough domestic women on these sites to go around.

I do not want to go overseas, but if I did, I would definitely find a woman on OKCupid and marry her and go to her homeland and enjoy cheaper health care and cheaper cost of living. Now that I think about it, sounds pretty good. I am rather attached to the U.S. however despite all of the problems we have to deal with. I think you find problems wherever you go.

It seemed like most women made zero effort on their profiles, just pics and that is it. I do not know what to do with that, I assume they do not have much to say about anything and do not have any thoughts in their head. If that is the case, there is not much point getting to know them.

Then another huge segment in my age range is women with children. Do I want to be Daddy? Because the real one stepped out. Not really. I can barely support myself, let alone a women and all her offspring.

There are genuine good profiles of what I consider to be attractive women that are not way out of my league. I imagine they are swamped with messages, because I never got a reply from them. They are probably already in a relationship, and simply did not bother taking their profile down. Or, worse, they are dating but keeping the profile up in case they can find better!

OKCupid does not let you see who likes you, unless you pay. The cost seems high to me, over $100 for just three months. I do not really feel like paying for that, because in my experience, it does not result in a relationship, at best only single dates.

I don't think that online dating sites have improved over the last ten years, I think they have remained the same, and do not work well at all. They do not use any AI at all anywhere in their system. Their matchmaking algorithm makes no sense to me. The people they matched me with seemed to have nothing in common at all, just randoms.

I took my profile down, because OKCupid asks a lot of very personal, sexual questions. Imagine your coworker reading your profile and then gossiping about your sexual proclivities.

Have you checked to see if your profile is still there?
Many dating sites will still present your image after you close the account.

I changed my mind and decided to reactivate my account last night. I feel like I have not given OKCupid enough of a chance. I want to keep my profile active for at least a month longer, because I invested time in it. It is just possible, although not likely, that some lady, of my level of attractiveness (5/10?) might message me. It like a lottery ticket, you never know. Eventually, I will disable it again, but I don't see any rush.

My neighbor Glenn and his wife Maureen are proof that OKCupid can be successful and lead to real results!! !

I am thinking my friend Jealene also used OKC to find her husband...
