I worked with Sarah V from IJL once I entered their database. I'm not currently a paying member, but I have gone on several dates with their service. I genuinely really like the service. I've always felt safe, taken care of, and I've had the dates planned and vetted before I've ever even met them.
All you really have to do is go through an interview process and background check (which makes me feel better about how they vet the men too vs. traditional dating app dating). Some of the men were duds, but Sarah is EXCELLENT at protecting me and protecting my privacy from the men I didn't like from the service.
I like that there's always a date, restaurant, time, and reservations booked prior. A lot of the back and forth/coordinating is pretty much taken care of on their end so all you really have to do is show up and have a good attitude.
Pros and Cons:
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
