I think it’s amazing for meeting friends from abroad, whether abroad means out of your state/province or out of your country! I’ve been using it for a while now and it’s been incredible. Thank you so much for allowing me to meet and make so many friends safely ❤️

A great site with wonderful people, sometimes you need something to answer, but the virtual smile is just great and shows others that you have seen your profile. Eine tolle Seite mit wundervollen Leuten, manchmal braucht man etwas mit antworten, aber das virtuelle Lächeln ist einfach super und zeigt, den anderen, das man sein Profil gesehen hat.
