Are you tired of meeting people who are just not your cup of tea? It can be difficult to find the right person in this increasingly digital world.
You need something that works for you, and we’ve got it. We’re here to help you find love—the right kind of love—so you can stop wasting time on dating sites that don’t provide what you need.
So sit back and relax, because these dating sites are great.
Tinder
Tinder is the best dating app for you if you’re looking for casual dates. The app matches you with many people, so you have a high chance of finding someone compatible. And the app is easy to use, has smart chatting, and is available on all devices.
Although it’s full of people who may want just one date, There’s hope for a real date. You can chat with someone for as long as you want before making plans, so if they don’t seem like their profile describes or isn’t what their pictures show, then you can just stop talking to them.
Bumble
You might have heard that Bumble is the best place for women looking for love. They have a zero-tolerance policy for abusive and demeaning language, so no one will judge you if you’re not the hottest thing in town.
Bumble also has many active users and is friendly for hetero women, same-sex relationships, and business connections. How it works is that women looking for men have to initiate the conversation, but for same-sex matches—any person can initiate the conversation.
Well, we understand this may sound intimidating at first, but this comes with some sort of urgency. The woman has to say something within 24 hours or else your match goes somewhere else. It’s good because it filters slow matches that may make you wait forever. Bumble also connects people looking for business and BFF connections if you’re still deciding about a romantic relationship but still want to connect with someone cool.
Hinge
Hinge is a great alternative to Tinder because it doesn’t just rely on swiping right or left. Instead, it asks you to answer some questions about yourself and your relationship preferences before you can start swiping. This helps Hinge match you with potential partners who are more likely to be compatible with your lifestyle, which means more meaningful connections!
It also takes the stress out of having to come up with something witty or interesting to say in your first message, because the prompts give you an opportunity to talk about yourself without having to worry about coming up with the perfect words for every sentence.
Also, Hinge has a bunch of other features that make it stand out from other dating apps: voice note capability, a get-to-know-you questionnaire, and unlimited swipes when you go premium. With so many options at your disposal, there’s no doubt that Hinge will help you find someone special—and maybe even get rid of those pesky butterflies by making them go away forever.
Christian Cafe
If you’re looking to connect with like-minded Christians, Christian Cafe is a great place to start. It’s a dating app that focuses on facilitating those connections by matching you with Christians who are looking for the same thing you are: a relationship built on faith, love, and trust.
The app features free trials for 10 days, which gives you enough time to get a feel for it. You can use it as much as you want during this time period and don’t have to worry about paying any money until after that trial period has expired. The only downside is that its mobile app lacks some features compared with its desktop version.
The League
The League is a dating app for modern-day working professionals. It’s like LinkedIn, but for dating and it’s great for busy people who want to find love in their city without having to spend a lot of time online.
Additionally, the site has “Happy Hour” where you can get a ton of profiles to review at once, which can be helpful if you don’t have much time to dedicate to swiping through hundreds of profiles at once. The premium version grants access to unlimited profiles, which means you can easily talk with people you like without having to wait for them to message you first (or vice versa). It’ll cost more than most dating apps, but if you can afford it, The League may be worth the price tag.
First, you should download one or two apps on this list as soon as possible. Second, you should also consider using a different email address for each app, so that your potential dates don’t get confused about who you are. Third, and most importantly: love yourself. You’re amazing and you deserve to find someone who recognizes that.
