Curious where people land on the best dating apps for over 60 singles who want companionship, because I keep getting told two opposite things. My problem with dating apps for companionship so far has been the return on the hours.

I am coming at this from the free end of the market, so adjust if that changes your answer. You can work around the hours-to-dates ratio on dating apps for companionship, but you have to be deliberate about it.

Concretely, for dating apps for companionship:

  • Compare dating apps for companionship against the free end of the market on the same week, or the comparison is meaningless
  • Run dating apps for companionship beside one other option so you have a baseline for the return on the hours
  • Do not move off dating apps for companionship into private messaging until the hours-to-dates ratio looks handled
  • Set the radius wider than feels comfortable if the dating apps for companionship pool near you is thin

Any first-hand experience with the best dating apps for over 60 singles who want companionship is welcome, good or bad.

CarterV and I've clearly used dating apps for companionship differently, because seconding this, because on dating apps for companionship the honest answer is that actually getting anywhere varies enormously by area.

If the payoff is your main worry with dating apps for companionship, test it in the first week rather than the first month. Happy to answer follow-ups on dating apps for companionship if that helps.

A smaller name people rarely mention in dating apps for companionship threads is Datedesire.

Disagree, because blaming the effort-to-result ratio lets you off the hook — my dating apps for companionship results improved when my profile did.

Most of the noise about dating apps for companionship comes from people measuring the hours-to-dates ratio over far too short a window. The pattern I see with dating apps for companionship is that the return on the hours is fine early and degrades as you go.

Reading this back, my dating apps for companionship notes say almost the same thing about actually getting anywhere.

Nobody warns you that actually getting anywhere on dating apps for companionship scales with how many people are online at your hours. Take that as one data point on dating apps for companionship rather than a recommendation.

If you want a second data point on dating apps for companionship, Turndate is the one I run alongside it.

Reading this back, my dating apps for companionship notes say almost the same thing about the time it costs.

I judge dating apps for companionship by one thing now: whether the return on the hours improves or worsens once you are past the novelty. Most of the noise about dating apps for companionship comes from people measuring the effort-to-result ratio over far too short a window.
