MeetCuddlyMe.com Review - Find someone to cuddle with

Overview

MeetCuddlyMe is a dating site for plussize singles; and while you'll find the traditional images of gorgeous larger ladies on the home page, they are, while beautiful, pretty normal! Our biggest bugbear with plussize dating is the fetishism of bigger singles, so it's no less than wonderful to find a site where the members are welcomed into a culture of fun, respectful flirting. That said, the men are hidden away in the small print, so we wanted to experience what the platform can offer as a bigger woman looking for a cuddly match! As dating sites go, MeetCuddlyMe has everything you need, and without some of the annoying games that aren't going to get you any closer to a date.

Sign up in less than 30 seconds.

Messaging works just like an email inbox, so it is easy to get used to how to reply, and location searches make sense if you want to meet someone within a viable distance! There seem to be singles online from all over, so you stand a good chance of meeting somebody nearby.

“Plus size dating site for authentic bigger guys and girls who are looking for genuine dates.”

Ease Of Use

MeetCuddlyMe is well laid out, and registering is a piece of cake (no pun intended!). Provide some quick info, verify your email address, and you're in! Now, plussize dating isn't necessarily about weight; but using a dedicated dating site does make it a lot more fun than negotiating the skinny folks in the mainstream, so there was bound to be a question early on. Credit to the site, they don't ask about you - indeed, you'll find all sorts of people here who like a bigger date - but they ask what you're looking for.

For us, the descriptions are just the right side of being a bit funny, without being crass. Our selections were 'chubby' and 'on the slimmer side' because we wanted to test the algorithm and see what it made of my choices! You need to confirm you agree with the terms of use, and are encouraged to upload a photo, and then the browsing can begin.

The search function is seamless; and has just enough options so you can find people who match your preferences, without having such minutiae that you get caught up in whether to choose hazel or grey eyes. We're not building an imaginary soulmate here, but deciding what characteristics we'd like for our perfect date! we were delighted to find so many matches reasonably close to our area - quite surprising for a quieter location. And when it comes to our preferences; spot on! we found a real range of guys, all within the age parameters we'd chosen, all either a tad cuddly but not massively big, and all seem very happy to be part of the site.

Everything is easy to find; the menus are clear, alerts are marked and highlighted, and you don't have to be a dating pro to navigate your way around the site from your first visit.

Conclusion

we'll be honest and say we were sold on the site; until we checked out the VIP Members Area. Now we're all for choosing a hot picture and had no issue browsing through a lot of the profiles, but always dislike when plussize dating sites use an image of a large lady naked on a bed - isn't this meant to be about dating, flirting, and finding love? That aside, the site itself works smoothly, and we didn't find a single glitch, broken link, or a spammy looking profile to mention.

By and large, the members at MeetCuddlyMe are looking for relationships, so it's a dating site best suited to romantics and people wanting to meet someone special. There is a social network-style feed, which, although not used extensively, is a nice feature if you want to stand out from the crowd or introduce yourself to catch a bit more attention!

In terms of security, the site gets top marks, and using simple tools like email verification avoids anybody using the website that isn't quite what they claim to be. we came across young single guys, plussize singles with kids looking for new dating options, and quite a few profiles who were there to spice up their love life and have a bit of a flirt online! 

At sign up, you need to choose your gender, and then choose who you'd like to meet, so this is a plussize site that acknowledges that bigger people can be gay as well as straight; a common misconception in a lot of popular dating apps.

What would make MeetCuddlyMe perfect is if they used a few more images of guys, and replaced that one we've taken exception to in the upgrade section. However, we'd say that while all the pictures of women and the pink background feel a bit one-sided on the gender front, the reality is that once you sign up you will find a pretty even split, so will be jus at home no matter what sort of partner you are looking for.
