So: the best dating apps for plus size singles looking for body-positive spaces. I have read a lot of contradictory takes on dating apps for plus and would rather hear from people who tried it. Everything I have read about dating apps for plus skips straight past the hours-to-dates ratio.

I have about a month of using free platforms behind me and not much to show for it. The thing people underrate about dating apps for plus is how much the payoff depends on your own city.

The open questions I have on dating apps for plus:

  • Ask curvy singles what dating apps for plus is like where they actually live, not where you wish you lived
  • Block early and report often on dating apps for plus — it trains the feed faster than anything
  • Log in at the hours you would actually go out; dating apps for plus activity is nothing like flat
  • Write a first message that references their profile, not your own — dating apps for plus rewards it

Happy to be told I am asking the wrong question about the best dating apps for plus size singles looking for body-positive spaces.

I will push back here, because dating apps for plus worked fine for me and the return on the hours was never the issue.

Honestly, the effort-to-result ratio was less of a problem on dating apps for plus than the sheer time it ate. For plus-size daters here, the dating apps for plus experience lives or dies on the time it costs and almost nothing else.

Yes, and I would add that the return on the hours on dating apps for plus gets worse the longer you stay. I judge dating apps for plus by one thing now: whether the hours-to-dates ratio improves or worsens once you are past the novelty.

The pattern I see with dating apps for plus is that the return on the hours is fine early and degrades as you go. Not saying dating apps for plus suits everyone, but it is not the disaster this thread implies.

That tracks with my dating apps for plus run, which was fine until the time it costs became the whole experience.

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

Picking up Natalie_W's point about the effort-to-result ratio, that feels too harsh on dating apps for plus, given the effort-to-result ratio is a problem across the free-tier sites rather than specific to it. Nobody warns you that the hours-to-dates ratio on dating apps for plus scales with how many people are online at your hours.
