The best analogy I can give is this If you go to fruit n veg store and you get there late then all the decent stuff will have gone, all that's left is the stuff nobody wants because it's past it's best and it's damaged goods. It's been prodded and poked and its quality is awful... That's what the people on POF are like... You'll need to be extremely fortunate to find a female you even find close to being attractive.

Reasons to avoid
October 9, 2025

1) the women have ridiculously big heads and act entitled despite virtually all being below average looking. 2) they all demand a cross between Channing Tatum, James Bond and Superman. 3) Number two obviously won't happen because of number one. 4) The profiles are dreadful. Either blank, ranting and raving or only telling you they can't see likes. 5) Most are out of shape yet want a man who is fit. 6) Most are divorced or separated with lots of children. 7) Tattoos are listed as a hobby. 8) instead of saying a man must be attractive they use words 'spark' and 'connection' 9) Virtually all seem angry and seem to be holding grudges from their exes. 10) they don't seem to know how to hold a conversation and 11)Most don't seem like very nice people

There's only a few decent women on there, most are terrible and not the sort you'd take home to meet your mom that's for sure
All profiles are virtually alike. They all like going out and staying in. They like road trips and holidays plus you need to be good looking and make them laugh if you want to stand a chance with them... For their part most of the them smoke, have tattoos and give out really bad vibes. They tell you they don't need a man and how independent they are.

Twice now POF has some how lost my email address and confused past email as the real one. Then I am forced to suffer the loss. As they hide behind a computer sending form letters.Gaslight city from a bunch of low lifes. Not to mention your photos get screwed up and look wierd.The girls all wear sunglass's.No doubt fake profiles. Lots of scammers if you like emails from fake pictures of goodlooking woman..

Most of the people on POF are rude, anti social, messed up or just downright strange. People seem to act online in a way they wouldnt dare in the real world... Most of the women are just not very attractive. The problem is they all think they are...
Theres lots of them in their forties still acting like they are twenty one. They make it perfectly clear their pets and their children will always come first. They allrefuse to settle and lower their standard despite having seen better days... They won't compromise and you must accept them as they are but there's no chance that they'll do the same. They all have shopping lists of demands.

To say you're not going to find the best quality of person on here would be a HUGE understatement...
If you imagine all the things that would put you off dating a person then X by 100 and that's plenty of fish., Nearly all have multiple bad traits and there are red flags all over the place... If that's not bad enough the profiles where they're meant to create a good first impression just contain a long list of demands/complaints or is left blank... Ive never seen so many dreadful people.it can't get worse then this...

If I don't reply it's because I don't find you attractive -hahahaha. I saw this A LOT on profiles and it was always from unattractive or overweight women. I couldn't get off the site fast enough... First time on there since 2016 and straight away you see the same familiar faces with the old pics and they're all still wanting a dream man and demanding heaven and earth with their blank profiles

Non existent social skills
September 22, 2025

Most of them are way past their best and have let themselves go yet still harbour obvious desires of hitting the jackpot and finding their dream guy... The bizarre thing is though they either spend their time on there complaining about life, saying their children will always come first or not even filling the bio out. It's like they don't care or don't realize this behavior will just scare any half decent man away... Who wants to message someone If they're rude or unhappy? The way they are makes no sense. I'm speechless at the low quality on there and how unpleasant they seem. They'll all be on there for years. POF is full of negativity and unhappiness.

After a few days i realised it's dreadful... 50% are women who spend all their time complaining they can't see likes and the other half are ones who put their children' as conversation starters. Yes let's talk about another man's kids to break the ice... I've never seen a dating site that is rammed with single mums everywhere you look... They all want a spark from the guy despite the fact most are unattractive and 'plus sized' or 'curvy'... I chuckled at the numerous times I saw average women put 'if I don't reply it's because I don't find you attractive 'in their profile... I've never seen so many rude entitled toxic people...

Shocking...
August 29, 2025

I've never seen a site with so few people making an effort. "No timewasters!", "can't see likes" and "life's too short" as profile headlines are usually followed by such boring phrases as "ask", "don't be boring" (the irony), "fill in later", "genuine men only" and "my children will always come first" as the main section. I don't know if they can't be bothered or if they think they don't need to make an effort, but it really is off-putting. You'd think they'd try and seem to have a good personality, but no... How can they expect to find a decent man if they can't make an effort?

Plenty of Karens
August 26, 2025

They all spend their time talking about what they want, none of them talk about what they have to offer. Their favourite subject is themselves. They want you to take them as they are, yet expect the men to be tall, good-looking & funny. It's not difficult to work out why they're still single. They're all undateable for different reasons. It's a website full of Karens.

Really really bad
August 22, 2025

After a few month here's my take of the women----- Only 1% are actually attractive ----
About 20% are okay/nothing special yet act like they're princesses -----
The Rest - 79% are unspeakably awful yet still think they're hot stuff------ As if that's not bad enough most of them seem really unhappy and unpleasant. Lots have tattoos & children in tow. AND they all complain that they can't see likes. I'm guessing most of them don't get any messages which explains why they're so angry and rude on their profiles

AWFUL SITE
August 16, 2025

What is wrong with people on this site? They're incredibly picky and all seem to spend their time demanding or complaining... The older they are they more they expect and the less they offer. If they're as great as they think why are they single? Why do they all have to keep telling you they can't see the likes? What they mean is they don't want to pay... If you do contact them they just go on about awful life is and how bad men are. Why on earth would I want to hear such negativity from strangers?...
Most don't seem to want to date so why are they even on the site? It really is scrapping the barrel stuff.

They will ban you for no reason, paying customer or not. They allow sex workers to post and the quality of other matches are very low. I have seen profiles that have been there for years and a lot of fakes that will not respond or ghost you after a couple responses. They are ran by the same company that operates Tinder, Hinge, OKcupid, Match, Meetic, BlackPeopleMeet, LoveScout24, OurTime, Pairs, ParPerfeito, And Twoo. I would suggest staying away from all these sites unless you want to be scammed.

Banned for life and don't know why?
October 13, 2021
Previous review

They discriminate, if you don't date the way they want you to you will get banned. They don't like interracial dating and if you don't follow their rules to the letter they ban you and don't give you the opportunity to fix the problem first. They will approve your profile at first but if they don't like the type of dating you are doing they will ban you. Terrible site I would stay away.

Plenty of Leftovers
August 14, 2025

As others have said it's full of women all wanting a man WAY out their league. It seems no one is happy with their own level which is kinda sad... I don't wish to be rude but most of the females are no position to throw demands about... I just laugh out loud at all the single mum's entitlement saying how you must be tall and good looking. What do they bring to the table exactly? The funniest thing is when you finally match with someone they block you straight away or just stop talking.

I can only think most of the women are so angry and bitter because they've been ignored in the real world so they join online dating to get their own back on men... How else can you explain why they would sign up and then act in such an entitled rude manner? They show no interest in trying to attract a decent man... If you compare them looks & personality wise to women in the real world it's not even close, even the best ones on POF would only be mid offline and most of them wouldn't even be that, so I doubt they'd get any attention in the real world from men which might explain why they are all so angry Have a browse yourself and you'll see what I mean

Just really bad
August 11, 2025

Large, unattractive, angry women all demanding an instant connection—I mean, really? I just laughed and deleted my profile... They are all obsessed with complaining, "Can't see likes." Or just being negative and unhappy in general.

A gruesome experience
August 2, 2025

After three months on there this is my review. Most of the women are messed up in some way or other. They have severe issues.
Even the normal ones don't think twice about ghosting you. One woman was talking to me fine then next morning she had blocked me for no reason. That's hardly normal behavior is it?. I had women message me first and then didn't replying to my response. Why bother in the first place then?. They claim to want a funny and good guy but what they really they want someone who is incredibly good looking. It was funny to see average looking ones say things like "I can't believe it's come to this?" as if they're far too good for online dating.
They all think they deserve a really hot guy and if you don't like it it's your loss' because they know their worth LOL... Most haven't aged well at all and look at least ten years older than their photos yet still expect a male model to email them. I won't be rushing back that's for sure

Garbage site
July 30, 2025

Double standards galore. Women can contact you with no photos yet when a man removes his photos his profile gets hidden.
Women can send as many messages as they like. Men get only one a day unless they pay... Its basically a site of women in their 40's who have decided they finally want to find their 'last first date' now they're past their best and had their fun. They all still think they deserve a really hot guy and if you don't like it it's your loss' LOL... The phrase beggars can't be choosers springs to mind. I'd feel sorry for them if they didn't seem like such awful people

Even the seemingly 'okay' women think nothing of ghosting you in the middle of conversations. The whole site is full of cranks + narcissists. The less they have to offer the more they expect. For example, not being about to drive yet demanding the man has a car or they'll ignore his message. Or being extremely short yet only wanting a tall guy /wanting someone gorgeous when they're unattractive/demanding someone in perfect shape when they're ridiculously overweight. It's utterly bizarre how online everyone thinks they deserve a man of their dreams and won't settle for anything less It's fair to say they'll still be on the site in 5 years.
