This is a great site for finding pen pals. There is good security and advice, so I felt confident using it. I have met some really lovely people on here, and still no weirdos after over a year using it.

Great website with lots of features, but you need to pay for extra things which such as seeing who viewed you seeing when they where last on the website messaging a certain amount of times.
