This question came up recently and I realized I didn't have a solid answer — hoping you do. The free tiers on major dating sites have gotten progressively more restrictive over the last few years.
Tell a trusted friend your plans and share your live location during any first meeting. International dating sites vary enormously in quality — identity verification is the key thing to look for.
Platforms already on my list to compare:
- Hinge
- Coffee Meets Bagel
- Bumble
- OkCupid
- Match.com
