My profile

About me

By day I'm a regular guy and by night a superhero … How tiring is that?!

Just joking! I'm a regular guy all the time, good job, close to my family, just bought my own flat with a cat. Actually, my cat thinks I'm a hero because I saved her from the street. I'm a talkative person and I believe communication is the most important thing in a relationship.

Likes and dislikes

I love pizza if it's Italian, wine if it's white, and football if it's the World Cup. I read a lot, especially true life stories, but most of my books live on my phone.

Hobbies

I love to travel and I'm always planning my next trip. I prefer an active holiday like hiking, skiing or watersports and I get bored lying on the beach. I post lots of photos on Instagram as I'm a good photographer but I'd really love to share the holiday with someone. Maybe you'll take the photos on the next trip.

Tips

1. Write about your good points, not your bad points.

2. Don’t include every single thing. Choose a few points and focus on them.

3. Don’t add your contact details (e.g. address, phone number). You could get unwanted messages.

4. Check your spelling and punctuation before you post.

5. You can use punctuation and emojis when you’re joking, e.g. ?! and .

I don't think dating apps are a good way to meet a person. It might be fun to meet a stranger like that, but i don't think its good for us. I feel that to date a person we need to know him/her personally well to avoid any kind of problem.

No, I don't think so. I have used several dating apps, but over half infomation about people on them seems to be fake. Even if a real infomation show up to me, I could hardly trust it. That's the reasons why I do not love to use dating apps.

i think that dating app are good to meet people. Sometimes you can meet there someone who will became your partner. Sometimes, instead, you can meet there new friends from all over the word so you can improve your languages, discover new cultures, new types of cooking and new foods and maybe you can organize a meeting with these new friends and visit their city. but, i think , that you must be careful because it can happen that , the person you are chatting, isn't how he show you.

It is definetly a useful app. Many people now have friends and partners who used this dating apps. Believer or not, actually me and my wife met through this and now we are having beautiful life together. Thanks to this app creators. However you need to be careful when using this app, because there are many users who might be just looking for fun and there are other dark users and fake profiles who might put you in trouble. If you are clever enough to identify and ignore them then this app is useful for you.

Certainly are. This is a faster and easy way to meet someone because people from all over the world have an internet acces with smartphones and computers. This is very common, but there is the other side, when we meet someone by an internet we don't have enough attention on them, so this is dangerous we don't know this person.

Hi everyone! I think dating apps have only good side. Because they can help to lonely people to find each other and make a love. But it is hard to that.

Good evening everyone! I think dating apps it good way for meet man with women or women with man. If it help them aren't to be single. So person was born to be happy with someone.

No, I haven't used any dating apps to meet people yet.
