Whenever I do online dating in any site, I always hear its promises like "We're the best dating site!" and things like that, and yet there's a lot of rejection! Why's that?

Rejection by the site?
Rejection by people you;re matched with?
Define the rejection here please....

Hmmm, me thinks someone is in need of a profile review. I believe you can post part of it (sanitized of all identifying info of course) in one of these forums.

What? I don't feel like I need a profile review. I just wanna know a good dating site that's local to a person's own city.

I looked at your Advice profile and find that it is mostly blank. So what city do you live in? Most likely need the state also.

However, all dating sites that I am familiar with allow you to limit your search area to only your local area.

Most all of them are local in that you will usually have some people from where you are on the dating site. As for a recommendation, it's kind of a try and see type of thing. Some people like certain dating sites, others not.
