What are the safest free dating websites for over 50 widows and widowers?

I have been going round in circles on the safest free dating websites for over 50 widows and widowers and could use some real experience. The bit nobody covers on safest free dating websites is a free tier that is not free.

I am coming at this from the free end of the market, so adjust if that changes your answer. I keep two accounts running to compare the point where it starts charging across the free end of the market, and safest free dating websites sits mid-table.

Specifically, on safest free dating websites I would like to know:

• Do not pay to fix the paywall on safest free dating websites; the paid tiers rarely touch the real cause
• Photos with other people in them do worse on safest free dating websites than you would guess
• Write a first message that references their profile, not your own — safest free dating websites rewards it

My rules for safest free dating websites these days:

• Treat your first safest free dating websites profile as a draft, because a free tier that is not free punishes lazy ones
• Check what safest free dating websites does about the paywall before you upload anything you would not want indexed
• Give safest free dating websites a fortnight of daily use before calling a free tier that is not free a dealbreaker
• Compare safest free dating websites against the free end of the market on the same week, or the comparison is meaningless
