Awesome app hoping I would meet my heat desire

by Me*****, 2026-08-24

I really like this app, its blue-pink design and I really want to pick up with Japanese people and Japanese culture. Unfortunately, there is really little that users with free plan can do… I tried to watch ads to get some free smiles, but as press the button nothing happens. So I can’t even respond to people I match with
