I'm very disappointed with the new UBLove website (redesigned in February). Many of the profile/search criteria are no longer available and using the site is now so unnecessarily complicating that I'd like to show my dissatisfaction by leaving the site. I don't know much about the alternatives. KFF seems a bit sleazy, but, as I don't know it, I may be wrong.

So, what do you think of it now? What do you think of the alternatives?

I'd try simply social networking sites like myspace.

UB Love can die a slow death. I hate that site. It used to be great, but then they got all stuck on themselves and made it suck.

I've found some bugs with UBlove, which is why I don't use it much anymore. Plus, I can't figure out how to change my location, meaning when I search for people by location, I get people all over the peninsula.

You could also try Friendster, although I've heard it's not as popular since myspace has become all the rave.

Use Korean dating sites instead of so called "international" ones.

One of the advantages is that you actually have a possiblity to get to know a wide variety of women, not only those interested in learning English from you, who make the majority of female members on KFF or UBlove.

Of course you need to speak Korean first.

You can't be serious. Myspace for dating? There are way too many freaks on myspace. You always get the freakiest people sending friends requests...Well, at least I do. Rolling Eyes And what makes a guy think I will add him to my friends list when I see that so many of his friend sare women in bikinis with their chests spilling out. Puhleeze. I wouldn't give losers like that the time of day. Now, if a lady likes playboys, then by all means go for it. I even got some married dude in his 40s asking me if I would go out with him. I blocked him.

Apparently going out and talking to women can be quite fruitful.

If you are religious then go to a church. Great way to meet new people.

Go out and meet new people, not just women but men also. A lot of times, the guys you become friends with will try and hook you up with someone they know.

Or you can take dance lessons. not only can you meet women there, but you learn to dance. And next time you go to the night club, and you show off your new moves, I guarantee someone is gonna be interested in you.

You honestly need to be taught how to dance?

It's different being a normal guy. We tend to attract normal women, however rare they might be on a place like myspace.
