Would appreciate real experience on over 65 dating sites, not affiliate copy. The active sites angle is worse, because most of the disappointment traces back to the quality of the filters. If active sites is your priority, the platform makes verification optional and then hides who has done it, and that is usually where the goodwill runs out.
Same story on active sites: you get further if you screenshot the pricing page in case it changes. Sites sites is the clearest case of it — what decides it is how well it works on a weak connection, not the number of features listed. Every time active comes up, the platform counts a like as a match, and how often the same faces reappear suffers for it.
Look closely at active and the deciding factor is the time it takes to get a first reply, in my experience. I'd frame over 65 dating sites this way: nothing improves until you keep a note of what you actually spent. What has actually worked for you on active sites, and what would you avoid?
