| | | Best Dating Websites
Which dating website would you recommend to someone who is between 40-50, speaks Swiss German and English fluently and wants to stay in Switzerland for the rest of her life?
Thanks experts!

I suggest that dating websites are a really bad idea and it is better to get out there and meet people face to face. Find a club or a hobby that you enjoy and get out there and meet people with common interests. That way you find the person you are looking for.

In my little village in Canton Schwyz, most of the bachelors who belong to clubs are better off bachelors for the sake of all.

Also try and get away from the "local" environment. Find a club outside of the area that you would normally considder your comfort zone.....that helped me a lot during the times that I have been single, looking for a partner.

just met uninteresting persons. It's very deceiving.
the most known in Switzerland is Swissfriends.ch
add : well, it's perhaps I think that's what I deserve to meet....

| | | Re: Best Dating Websites | Quote: | |  | | | I beg to differ. | | | | | I guess I just don't sell well through the web medium. I never met anything other than boring or gold digging people through the number of different sites that I tried. I know quite a lot of women that have had success through these sites but don't really know any men that have.
Just my experience.

Unless you're interested in leering teenage boys and old men's willies, I'd stay away from Chat Roulette... lets just say, i've seen enough to put me off most things on there, and i was only online for a short while.
On the internet dating side of things, I would recommend it - thats how my husband and I met. In the time before meeting him, I had a few interesting and funny dates with all sorts of men, only one was totally off-putting. The best thing about it is, you can be as choosy as you want and you can get to know a fair amount about them (if they're sincere and honest, which admittedly not all are) all before meeting them.
Good luck and have fun with it! | | This user would like to thank Marisa_CH for this useful post: | | |
