Do you guys pay for CMB premium or just go for free stuff? RM70/month seems not bad.

For CMB, do you click heart and wait for them to like you back or straight message them?

Sorry new to this. Lol.

if it's under your Suggested, you can send a message and free to swipe, 20 profiles or so a day not too sure

if Discover can only heart, swipe need beans, if out of beans need to pay

Kasi 2 cents here: Always go the extra mile by leaving personalised messages to every person you like: ask/comment something about their profile to start the conversation:
- skip the formality: hi how are you etc. are pointless exchanges to me. I hate small talks tongue.gif
- get to know the person faster: see how they talk about themselves, and whether they steer the conversation back to you (to show mutual interest)
- show your sincerity in investing for the to-be relationship: after all, if you can't even spend the extra minutes to write a nice message to start, will you even commit down the road?

People can tell if you copy paste message like "hi beauty, I like your profile smile.gif" it's a turnoff no matter how flowery you decorate your template message.

Getting old la. Need to settle down.

Thanks for the tips. Yike. I have just been leaving likes without any messages. No wonder no text or likes back sad.gif

What's your recommendation range? I put 80km. Don't know if it's too big area.

Oh, mind if I ask what's your age? I think CMB is a platform for 20s-30s... Not sure about the pool for other age groups.

Personally, I prefer meeting weekly and 80km would be too far for my taste to make that happen... So I put 40 back then.

Also, just to give more perspective to you... I used 2 dating apps back then for about 2 years, FB dating being the other -- that's also where I met my bf tongue.gif I think it's totally fine to use multiple apps to see which app you like more, but be warned that it does not necessarily speed things up, because you will start seeing duplicate profiles on both apps. It takes a lot of time to sift through many fake/scammer profiles, so it can get pretty disheartening sometimes. Don't give up if you are sure that you want to settle down with a partner one day, but remember you can always do it at your own pace and take breaks whenever you want smile.gif

Be realistic. For me I dont swipe on those model type or super gorgeous type or fat profile (health reason). I choose wifey material. So far few people responded. Going on my date form CMB this weekend.

Whether it work out or not yet to be seen. I will asked them out after around a month of chatting with them. Those don't want to go out, I just move on.

QUOTE(redracer2004 @ Oct 18 2022, 10:18 AM)
Could be scammers.

So far I have like 4 active apps in use. Tan Tan, PakTor, Boo and CMB.

CMB seems most legit in terms of profiles and photos.

PakTor a lot of fake Thai and China Mei.

Tan Tan also got China Mei but they don't reply.

Boo has many many random stuffs but scammers also exist there.

For me, I have been chatting with one I met on CMB ever since I had the app back like 1 month ago.

She seems to fit my criteria and all but only set back is she taking things extremely slow, so I gotta follow the pacing too.
*
Take it slow. Don't rush. Sometimes girls get scared if you rush them. Go out makan2, chit chat, hiking, window shopping.

For me if the girl fit my criteria, I will ask them out after say a month of chatting. If they don't want to come out I asked a second time. 2nd time don't want, I don't bother already.

Is not so fast. Some times it take like 1 month for them to like me back.

Write as much thing as you can on your profile and don't just leave it blank.

Is it worth it to pay for premium (Rm70 monthly) on CMB ? I like the userbase there, but that shit seems expensive compare to Bumble, Tinder, TanTan, etc.

Which dating app is the best so far ?

Personally, TanTan and FB Dating is btm tier for me, too many fake profiles.

Tinder- I havent use it that much since abandoning it like 5 years ago, but same sentiment with TanTan, FB dating, my cousin yesterday just kena masturbation blackmail on tinder, too horny I guess.

Bumble: not much matches so far, but 600++ for lifetime premium seems ok i guess

omi, ok cupid- havent used, no comment. Also mainly looking for Chinese female partners
*
I will tell you. You don't need to pay for cmb. Went out for a date with a girl from CMB. She didn't ghost me yet and said want to hang out in the future.

Btw my friend a girl who recommended me CMB also told me don't pay for it. Now she got BF and getting married soon. BF comes from CMB.

If you feel you want to support them, just pay. For me I am happy with the free version.

Also depends on what you want. Hookup/ONS/FWB. If serious relationship go with CMB. If hookup/ONS/FWB go for tinder.

If u're looking for a serious relationship, then CMB is the right app for u to invest on. The free version is really terrible. Only allows u to see 1 or 2 ppl who have liked yr profile. At this rate, it'll take u forever to find yr compatible match. What I like most abt this app is that it comes with an activity report n if u know how to analyse it properly, u can easily tell if the other party is serious abt u or not. Btw, don't ever spend yr beans on anything there coz if the other party is not a premium member then it's highly unlikely they can see yr "like".

How to analyse activity report? What do you look out for?

the report will display if that girl will chat with how many percent of the matches,  how long it takes for them to reply on avg, whether they are active within past 72hrs and whether they sent the first message or not.

If I see someone with 0% chats, then i wont even bother to like

Nicely summarized 👏🏻 But would u bother to like gals who take around 12 hours to reply msgs? Coz some ppl will argue that there are ppl out there who are bad texters or would rather meet ppl in real life than texting away.
*
For me if they reply I am ok cause they reply doesn't matter if it takes them like 1 day. Cause not everyone is free to reply. Hate those that like you back but basically no reply.

OK, nowadays a lot of people go find their other halves on Social Media (FB, IG, Twitter, Tiktok) and Dating Apps.

When you first match a person and start chatting whether is on FB / IG  or Dating Apps, there is a certain expectation going on.

Come on, a random guy adding a girl on FB and started chatting her up. Don't tell me the guy wanna be friends only right? *Whispers to ear - LIAR!*

Now comes the fun part, after you two have started chatting for a while, maybe few weeks to a month things will start to warm up right? (If it doesn't I guess one side might be not interested?)

So my question is, in the perspective of a guy, How do I know if the girl is showing interest or not without actually going out? Cause most times, when you start conversations, it doesn't really lead to going out yet so how do we gauge if a girl is already interested / invested in the guy?

TBH, I had a bad experience of going out with a girl from dating app and then she said she treats me like a brother only after she refused to go out with me on the 2nd date.

So let's share the signs to all guys here so they don't make wrong judgment.
*
First always ask yourself. What is your end goal?
1. Is it bed the girl and do FWB
2. Long term relationship.

I can only advise based off long term relationship cause that's what I am doing.
1. Filter out the girls based off chatting with her.
2. From there you can see if you want to ask her out or just move on.
3. If she agree to come out, now the ball is in your park.
i) You can either be genuine and show her who you are and hope she likes the real you (easier cause just be yourself)
ii) Play mind games and eventually show her who you are (harder as it requires some learning)

For me, I choose option (i) and then proceed with the date/meeting.

4. For me the first meeting is always to get to know her better. Don't rush anything sit down somewhere where ideally only 2 of you and talk. Yes talk. Do not be a creep. Always make sure she is comfortable. At the end of the date you should be able to feel how it goes. Don't ask her for 2nd date first. 2nd date should come 2weeks or 1 month later. Don't push and don't hurry her.

5. Once reach home, just message the girl and tell her how you feel about the date. Always thank her for her time and hint of possible of looking forward to next meeting. Now depending on how you perform or if there is any chemistry, you might or might not get a second date. If you feel it went good and she refuse to come out again, well just move on. Cause some how she's not interested in you after the first date.

For my case I got my 2nd date. But I don't know how it will go. Yes I was myself the whole time, be honest, no mind games. Yes we talk and talk for hours and didn't feel the time fly by. No touching, or holding hands on my part. I make sure she's comfortable and didn't do anything uncomfortable. We just seat down next to each other and talk.

How to know if the girl is interested in you from chatting?
1. She replies all your message
2. Sometimes she does the messaging.
3. Your chat is not dead or boring.
4. She will ask how are you? How's your work? Etc..

For me, I ask her out usually after 1 month of chatting or 3 weeks. That way she knows roughly a little bit about you and you roughly about her. I won't straight ask her out.
You have to ask her out to know her more in detail (my friend who is girl taught me this). There's no escaping it. If she refuse to come out, try rescheduling. If after 3x she refuse, just walk away. Cause you already gave her 3 chance to come out. If she's interested to know you further, she will take up the opportunity to meet you. If she's not, well she won't want to meet up.

I went out with a girl (my friend from work) 2x, 3rd time try to get her out she keep saying busy like 5x so I just move on. If a girl likes you and you ask her out on her free day, she will come out even though she is busy that day cause she will make time for you. If she doesn't like you much well, she won't come out. It's just that simple.

Some girls don't like to play mind games rather you be honest, open and direct with them.
Some girls like mind games and like to feel being "chased"
So different storke of brush for different girls. Find the one that suits you the best.

Hope my little experience helps you.
