    I have used Tinder in the past and it seems somewhat trashy.

    Does anyone know of a dating site that's oriented toward honest dating? I am looking for a serious relationship and not casual sex.

    It depends on your region, but I have known about InnerCircle and Bumble. On Bumble, I have met my girlfriend so at least it worked out for me personally.

    My understanding is almost all of online dating is hookup geared. But I guess there are religious oriented dating sites. If I were looking, I personally couldn't get over the religious hurdle.

    What is your region? Living in past in Europe, US and as well as Asia now each region is slightly differnet and some apps are more popular than the others.

    In general I would say tinder (hookup), bumble (normal dating), Plenty of fish (serious dating, useful when older, marrying, kids soon).
    That being said you will find all 3 categories in any app but ratio of people in those categories will be different based on app.

    For example even Tinder allows you to select, if you are looking shortterm, shortterm open to long, longterm, longterm open to short, just new friends. Same you see what other person is looking for. I found this very convenient to weed out people I might not be interested and who are looking for something different than I.

    CDFF is the ideal for you if you are Christian

    Do not go there if you are not because they will know and will block you

    Many women wants to settle down in CDFF, I met couple of women there on real but didn't work .

    Not sure it didn't work because a woman have the 6th sense and she can feel the insecurities (Because of my P addiction) or because I have an accent

    Anyhow you should try it if serious

    No hookups there otherwise they will block you permanently

    Tinder is hookup central, and trash (for the most part anyways).

    Bumble can work, but also attracts hookup culture, and it's counter intuitive for many women as many find it difficult to make the first move (incidentally the only way you'll get to chat with them).

    A guy I know who's pretty down to earth and has a good vibe about him recommended Hinge. You need to fill out your whole profile and have 6 photos to begin. That's way too much effort for the flaky or show off types. You're also limited to 10 'likes' per day. I haven't tried it yet (do I have 6 photos? yes, are they good? no) but it does sound like quality over quantity as far as dating apps goes!
     
  7. No such thing as a real dating site. If dating sites were real, Facebook and Twitter would also be real places.
     
  8. I am still unsure about wether or not the sixth sense thing is true or not. Because today at work, one of my managers who is a woman was concerned about the Monster drink I had and told me it would kill my heart (to be fair she is probably right.) and none of my managers (who are mostly women) have ever seemed to detect wether or not I struggle porn or not. So the reasons they haven't picked up signs I consider the following.
    1. I am a naturally hard worker and are actively choosing to overlook it.
    2. Because of Alexithyma (Intense difficulty expressing emotions) and I am often quiet too.
    3. The Sixth sense is a lie.
    4. The Sixth sense is real and they probably can discern how I am at work from what I do at home. And are probably realize that behind my lack of emotion and take pity on me because I feel quite shy and embarrassed when it comes to relationships and dating and don't care as long as I keep it in my bedroom and don't cause trouble for other co-workers.

    If you're looking for a free, trusted Indian dating site, then you should definitely consider WOO. It's one of the most popular dating apps in India, with millions of users.

    It might be more an “older” demographic but I’ve known two couples who met on eHarmony, got married and are still married (one 10 yrs the other 12).
