Have met a few people. Some if you don’t agree with their point of view, they drop you. Ha! A younger woman did this. Suggestion: stay in your age group.

It's a good platform, the only thing I would recommend is a more modern feel to the site's appearance.

This website help me to find most of my penpals! So good. I tried another website, but search is doesn't work well, and I couldn't limit who could write to me, and it was terrible, I deleted the account right away. But here on Global Penfriends, I haven't noticed anything like that for more than six months of use! Thank you so much!
