I will emphasize what Don has said. American dating websites survive on loser males that blow money and waste time. The only area that men are likely to be successful is women over 50 that actually DO have a hard time meeting suitable men in this country. Until you are suitable for that age group of women, leave the online dating sites alone if you are a decent male. The good thing about the online dating scheme is that it keeps a lot of losers at home and off the treets so that decent guys can be more successful in better dating venues. The only people that consistently do well online are smart and tough women that figure the whole thing out and adamantly avoid the losers that actually form the major population of users. If you are one of those women, the larger and better websites should rate at least 3 stars for you. A male might get lucky and be spotted by one of these better females, but they are few and far between and you shouldn't count on it..
