Yes there are a few areas that could use a little help, but all in all it’s a pretty good site.. I met 3 people on here and all 3 were actually great men. But only 1 stole my heart❤️.. I would say it is a little weird when 50+ yr old men are consistently “flirting” or “interested” but I received the same from 25 yr old as well.. neither which myself at 33 was interested! So that’s an area the needs assistance, you should be allowed to create an age range where your profile will not show just to avoid the embarrassment.. also, I don’t think you should be able to have a profile with no pictures at all, in my opinion! But like I stated I was fortunate enough in 6 months to meet some really nice guys, none in which I would’ve crossed paths with anywhere else. Ending, thanks BPM for allowing me the opportunity to connect with my “future”... xo

First off, I’ll admit I’d tried this dating service 3 times. The first two times were no good - just spammers and profile views. Then I decided to give this app a go for a 3rd time, and believe it or not, I didn’t strike out. I was contacted by a woman who liked my profile. And actually said as a comment that I have a nice smile. Mind you, I thought she was a bot when she messaged me, but I’d been single for so long I somehow thought indulging this person would be some kinda entertainment. Turns out she was very real and the craziest thing about it was that she lived in the same city as my sister, who had moved out of our home state 4 years prior. From the 1st day we’d met (September 15, 2019) to now, we’ve been each other’s best friend. And as of July 17, 2021, she is my wife. Online dating is always risky. Heck even I’ll admit I got lucky. How was I supposed to know that one day the perfect woman for me would fall into my lap and show me I actually do have a love life to look forward to? I know this is long-winded but I just had to get the point across that BlackPeopleMeet actually helped me find my soulmate. And I really couldn’t be any happier.

Black people meet is filled with some pretty decent people I’m sure. I have conversed with some nice ladies here and there and I am overall satisfied with the rapport I have built there. Outside of that, I am a little disappointed with how things work on the site. For instance whenever my subscription is at an end I get flooded with emails and winks and flirts that I never got when I was paying. The fact that the designers would think I’m stupid enough to believe that 50 women all of a sudden became interested in one day simply insults my intelligence. The next thing that bothers me is that I always get feedback from women that I never flirted with or never saw before which is disturbing to me. This means that when I swipe or interact with the app in any way it is communicating with people behind my back. This puts me in a very awkward position because I’m not a mean person but sometimes I have to just delete interactions with people that I never talked to in order not to get him false hope. I get bludgeoned when people are not interested in me and I take it in stride, but I’m not really the type of person to drop a load of bricks on somebody or lead somebody on so I don’t talk to them at all. I wish that they would just run an honest business and stop trying to scam people.

This is my second time using BPM and I’m sorely disappointed. I think what this boils down to is that I’m overqualified to be on this particular app. I’m an educated professional woman who is cerebral, financially stable and at a good place in my life. I am seeking an equally educated partner with a broad life experience. The vast majority of my recommended matches were uneducated blue collar workers who smoke, or use drugs. There was no way to filter potential matches. My other frustration is the frequency of recycled recommended matches. I would pass on profiles and a few days later, they would be back as a potential match. Also, after setting up my profile, I was unable to change my search distance. This may have decreased the amount of recycled matches. Lastly, this is the most antiquated app I’ve used. The features are challenging and setting up a quality profile took more time than it should have. I’m guessing this is why most of the profiles I saw had the bare minimum usually just location and a picture or two. I appreciate having an app dedicated to Black people, it could and should be so much better.
