Legitimate Asian Matchmaking Sites
« on: June 06, 2011, 12:35:18 PM »
I have been looking for a legitimate Asian matchmaking service yet there does not appear to be any out there.  I did a google search and read about Loveme.com, however I will not get involved with any site that charges for emails as that is a clear sign of a scam.


The only one that I saw that does not charge for emails was Thaivalentine.com but they state that they will not be opening till later this year.  Ugghhh, any suggestions.

Trip report - I visited the Thai Valentine office in Bangkok.  They spent an hour with with me telling me exactly what to expect, the good and the bad which was refreshing.  I think we all get carried away sometimes when we see a pretty face.  I met five girls and one could be "the one".  They are arranging an furnished apartment for my next visit.

Hi beantown, welcolm to PL.
 
It would be great if you would share some of your Thai experience.
If we were all forced to wear a warning label, what would yours say?

Not necessarily.  Loveme.com, the web address of A Foreign Affair has been around a long time, and they are a legitimate company that provides addresses of potential contacts and/or group tours and socials.  While plenty of people find their whole "meat market" socials disagreeable, there are others who actually met their spouse through A Foreign Affair.  To each his own.

By judging your ID, are you looking for sex?

Nope, there's plenty of places to get that.


TER, Backpages, Local Sites, etc.

I guess "Local Sites" is just a generic term for sites like craigslips, but for the life of my puritan (not) ass, I have NO idea what "TER" and whatever "Backpages" refers to.

Now--back to my Quaker oatmeal and rosary beads....

I had a hard time finding legit agencies in Asia. I'll check that link out and hopefully it's legit.

I wonder if there's an international introduction website to find Asian bridge just like Jamie's agency.

Those type of face-to-face introduction agencies are illegal in the Philippines. Other Asian countries vary...

But there are numerous on-line agencies selling contact info on the Internet.
