Pro tip: the best website for meeting older Thai women isn’t X-rated

If you happen to be a guy who is into older Thai women, I’ve got good news for you: it’s not that difficult.

As crazy as it sounds, eHarmony is actually the best website for meeting older Thai woman. And as soon as you stop scratching your head and being skeptical about it, it’ll be easier to understand the reasons why:

1. It’s user base is massive. It’s one of the largest online dating sites in the world. If you can’t find who you’re looking for any harmony, that person doesn’t exist. Period.
2. Although not truly international, eHarmony is more diverse than most dating apps. They provide a very large and valuable database of potential matches for three main parts of the world: the United States, Canada, the UK, and Australia.
3. It’s relatively scam free. Unlike many other dating websites, eHarmony prides themselves on keeping things clean and legitimate.

Anecdotal proof that eHarmony is the best website for meeting older Thai women

In my last post (where I explained how to tell if a Thai woman likes you), I mentioned that I have a handful of friends all over the world who have either a Thai girlfriend or wife.

I reached out to all of them before writing this overview, curious to know what they think the best website is for meeting mature Thai women is. They are all diligently mature themselves (35+ years old), so they are very much in tune to what is good (and not) these days.

The answers I got were surprising. Originally, I was expecting to use these replies to write a general post about meeting Thai women online, but as you will see from the results of the responses below, there was a very specific reason why I just turned this into a gush-fest about eHarmony:

• 6 out of the 11 mentioned eHarmony as being the first place to go, since it’s possible to view your matches for free.
• 3 of those are actually married to an amazing Thai woman today (2 met on eHarmony, 1 offline).
• They all mentioned a variety of other websites as well, with the disclaimer that all were a bit scammy and not worth the time.

I followed up with everyone who mentioned eHarmony to find out why it’s so good:

3 reasons why eHarmony is the best

Before going any further, you have to know that eHarmony is only going to work for you if you live in the United States, Canada, the UK or Australia.

I’ll talk about two alternative options at the end of this article, but for now let’s just talk about all the ways in which eHarmony is the best for finding Thai women who are slightly older in those 3 regions:

1. It’s one of the largest dating websites in the world

When you’re looking to meet people online, you want go where everybody is. Yes, there are other websites which claim to be more location specific, but the truth of the matter is they simply don’t have the user base.

In the western world, everybody knows eHarmony. They were founded in 1995 as a seminar company (read about their full history on Wikipedia), and there’s a very good reason for their success:

• They have very high standards. The application process for joining eHarmony is a bit more stringent compared t0 other dating websites, but it’s worth it. It weeds out all the fakes and scammers.
• Because of how stringent they are in the application process, their matching system is quite good. The chances of them showing you search results which don’t entirely match your search query is lower compared to other sites.
• From what others have told me, there’s a pretty good balance between men and women on the site. This is hugely important for men, who often find dating sites frustrating when the majority of the users are male.

2. It’s fairly diverse

Honestly? The best way to meet an older Thai woman who actually live in Thailand is to spend some time in Thailand. There’s no way around it.

However, eHarmony is incredibly great for meeting older Thai women who live in the United States, the UK, and Australia. Remember – eHarmony has an incredibly large database of profiles of people of all backgrounds and races.

In general, meeting Asian women on eHarmony is easy. There are plenty of them with active profiles at any given moment, and they shouldn’t be too hard to find.

Diversity is what makes the eHarmony application process worth the hassle IMHO. They gather so much data when users create new accounts that it makes it very easy to search for very specific things that you’re looking for in a person. I know of no other online dating service that is this in-depth.

3. You won’t get scammed

I met my wife online back in 2010, and even going back that far, dating websites were full of scammers and fakes. It was an incredibly frustrating process, but I was persistent enough to work through all the noise. Obviously, it paid off.

Unfortunately, online dating is still sketchy AF, and you really need to pay attention in order to prevent yourself from being scammed.

I have never once met anyone who became the victim of a scam while using eHarmony. They have all said that eHarmony is far less risky than other dating websites (mostly because of how stringent they are).

• With the amount of information they require for each sign up, you won’t have to worry about being matched with anybody who isn’t who they say they are.
• When you have a match, you can be confident knowing that it’s a real person and not someone looking to drain your bank account (or worse).

Speaking of getting scammed, it behooves you to study up on what Thai girls are really like. That way, you’ll be able to protect yourself when someone approaches you who doesn’t fit the stereotypical “Thai girl” mold.

Other good websites and apps for meeting older Thai women

What about those of you who live outside of the US, Canada, the UK, and Australia?

I have two suggestions for you (below). However, keep in mind that they both have notable downsides:

ThaiCupid

ThaiCupid.com is a subdomain of the hugely popular Cupid Media group. This is the company that owns other websites such as JapanCupid, KoreaCupid, HongKong Cupid, etc.

Fun fact: all of these are basically the same website with the same database of users, but they split them out separately to make it appear to be more location specific.

For what it’s worth, I met my wife on JapanCupid. However, as I mentioned earlier, it was an extremely frustrating experience for two reasons:

1. The site is littered with scammers and fake profiles
2. The Cupid Media group is shady as heck

For example, one of the ways they try to keep new users (who happen to be mostly men) active on the site is to fill their inboxes with fake messages from profiles of fake women. 

It’s maddening two get your hopes up and reply to one of these messages, only to never hear from that person ever again. It happened to me, and it happens every guy that I talk to who uses one of those Cupid Media group websites.

Tinder

What can I say about Tinder? If all you’re looking for is a hook up and nothing else, maybe that’s the way to go. Many guys head to Tinder first when trying to figure out how to meet Thai women. Most fail.

However, one thing you need to keep in mind is that older people (especially older and more traditional Thai women) tend not to be as active on casual meetup and pick up apps. Yeah, you might get lucky, but it’s likely not going to be worth the drama (and hassle).

A few final words about trying to meet older Thai women online

Honestly? If I was still single, I would go to Thailand if I was looking to meet a Thai girl. eHarmony would be my #2 choice.

I highly recommend reaching out and asking questions to those who are in the game and dealing with this kind of stuff on a daily basis.

It’s also really important to understand that:

• Older people tend to depend on technology less.
• Most are seeking something far more meaningful than just a casual hook up.
• It’s probably going to take more time than you think to meet that special someone. Older people tend to not rush into things so quickly.

Good luck out there!
