With the wide variety of specialist dating sites now available online it is easier to find someone who matches your needs and desires. From BBW dating to No strings dating, whatever you are looking for it is now easier to find the right match.
Having been using some of these sites for a while, I have found that a niche site can be better than a standard site as you know that the people you are connecting with are all looking for the same things as you are. It is kind of like fishing, casting a wide net might mean catching more fish, but if you only want to catch salmon then a more refined approach is needed.
For those of us who are a little on the larger side (myself included) it can become demoralising when all of the guys on a site are looking for twig thin ladies. Joining a specialist site not only increases your chances of finding happiness but can also be good for you self-esteem. I am in no way implying that anyone has low self-esteem but getting negativity from other people (even if unintentional) can become a drain over time. This is where the niche sites come in to their own by levelling the playing field.
From personal experience I have found that being on a general dating site can be a minefield, you look through the profiles and find the guys that you are attracted to and then comes the initial contact. I have always been honest in my profile and stated that I am BBW and I have found that there are a certain type of guy that just don’t answer my mail. Although I have no idea why they don’t, I normally assume that they are looking for someone thinner! I realise that this is silly, it could be any number of things from my taste in music (it’s a little unconventional) to hair colour or the fact that I have kids. To me it doesn’t matter, I have learned to become thick skinned and see it as their loss not mine, I don’t really want to be with someone who makes judgements based on appearance.
I guess what I am trying to say here is this, why waste your time casting a wide net in the sea when you can increase your chances of a perfect catch in a pond?
Find your perfect niche site to find your perfect guy or girl and have some fun and romance.
Happy Dating.
