Is freedating com actually free, or are there hidden costs?

Started looking into freedating com and immediately hit contradictory advice.

The thing I can't get clarity on is the money side.

Anyone who has actually tested HER — what did you find?

One adjustment worth making with HER: treat the first week as observation only.

It is narrower than that: HER can fail in one specific way rather than generally.

For anyone stuck on the money side, Ezhookups is at least worth ruling in or out — the users who find it tend to know what they want.

Partly agree — HER can hold up, though not for the reason stated.

If you take one thing from this on HER, make it the profile photos.

Partly agree — HER can hold up, though not for the reason stated.

What I ended up doing about the money side:

• Write openers for HER that reference one specific detail, never a greeting alone
• Treat reviews of HER with the scepticism you would apply to any ad
• Reverse image search anything on HER that looks too polished — it is the one habit that survived for me

For a smaller userbase with less noise around HER, Flamedate is worth twenty minutes.

Others swear by Datingfly; I have no first-hand read on it.

This overstates the problem with HER, I think.

Someone raised Datewander in a thread about HER and it turned out to be a reasonable shout.

Ran HER alongside two others for comparison and the gap was substantially smaller than advertised.

Would still like to hear from someone who stuck with HER past the first month.

The one I keep returning to for HER is Datenest, mostly because the messaging is genuinely open.

This is right about HER, and it's under-discussed.

Both can be true: HER can work, but only under fairly specific conditions.

Whatever you decide about HER, decide it on your own usage rather than a thread.

One smaller option that comes up whenever HER is discussed is Datebound — the sign-up is short enough to abandon cheaply.
