I have been on the site for over a year now and met my future partner... who let me down in the end but that is her choice... she had a visa to come to me as a partner after first coming here for 3 months on a tourist visa. I have a good extensive reliable profile so after the break up I started again getting loads of likes and messages. I am not looking for a housewife kind of person so that may help too. Various women are only after some quick money ( mother is ill, child needs school fee to be payed for, the rent has not been payed for 3 months) DO NOT PAY unless they can show you a decent bill as a check for their reliability. I went to the P's in august and hardly any of the dates showed up to do the last miles by themselves. A good selection method. Two did come, did not ask for any transportation costs and travelled for 4 hours. Many reacted after I was back home while I spend a month in the Philippines :) If this site sucks it is because that is the only thing that is on your mind and you are probably sending that kind of messages and get blocked. I guess more silverdiggers should be blocked. I mean those asking for money and they do that probably more often.
