If you’re dreading being seen on a dating app or don’t know which one is the best for you, by the end of this article you’ll have more clarity about which dating site is best for you. I’ve had so, so many friends and clients find love on dating apps. It’s beyond proven to work, as more than half of them right now are married; right now, married. But they all shared one thing in common and I’ll discuss this further along the video. So, let’s move on to our dating apps:
- Coffee Meets Bagel: This is for someone who may not want to be swiping all day and night. You get one match a day and that’s it. You do have an option to choose another bagel for the day, but it’s definitely not too close to tinder where you’re just swiping right and left all day.
I would recommend this to someone who is new to the online dating world because it’s a slow start, but you actually take the time to know someone since you’re only given one match or one option for that day.
- Bumble: This is where the woman engages with a man. It’s driven by women; you are in control. Women have to make the first move, and you have to make the first move within 24 hours. But the great thing here is the man can extend it for another 24 hours if you don’t reach out to them if you’re interested.
I have met so many men and women that have found love on that application because it’s one of the most popular. If you have tried any of these dating apps, I would love to hear from you about which dating apps you’ve tried in the comments below.
Oh yeah, remember how I mentioned my friends and clients all had one thing in common when they found love on a dating app? Well, this is it. They didn’t give up. Yes, they went through hell and back, and horrible dates but they continued to believe, and they kept trying.
I actually wrote a blog about, “Internet Dating: Does it really work? I give you all sorts of tricks to do an online profile and weigh out the bad ones really fast. I’ll put the link in the description box below, but let’s move on to number three.
- Happn: I love this app. Why? Because this app actually shows the people that were around you, or that past your area or vicinity of wherever you were. It shows exactly where you were when you both crossed each other paths, and it’s pretty interesting.
I like it because if you use it over time and you use it the right way, you can see if someone has the same interest as you. They typically follow your same habits or routines like the gym, where you eat, where you shop, or you work, or your home, and many more. I promise this isn’t as freaky as it sounds. It gives you something to really kind of talk about.
- Tinder: Tinder is the number one dating app, and there’s many and many of people that have found love on here and hookups too. If you don’t want hookups, then read that blog I mentioned before.
One key thing you have to have with this app is patience and all the apps really, and also be upfront with what you want. I say this because a lot of people use this app, and it can be very difficult sometimes as there are so many people on this tinder app. So, use it wisely.
- OkCupid: Their slogan is, they use math to find your date. So, they’ll find out more about you through interest, hobbies and they actually match you based on the algorithm of your profile which I think is best. You actually have to take some time to fill out your profile on this one, and I have heard it’s a pretty mature app to really find your match.
Also, I’ve heard pretty amazing stories about this one as well. One thing here is, I love when you first set up this app, they ask you really interesting questions. My favorite one is, they ask a question and it goes like this; can you have a partner that’s messy? Well, I think that’s so funny anyways.
- Match.com: It’s also a good one and a little more old-school but you do have to pay for this one. I would advise anyone to use this, but I still get the same quality, and I feel like you would too from a free app no matter what age you are.
- Meetmindful: I love this one because it’s a spiritual based app and it has a lot of great energy surrounding it. If you are into positive energy then this really is for you. You can be religious and you don’t have to be religious this app is for everyone. It’s beautiful and I would really highly recommend this one.
- Hinge: Your profile is built with tags and what you’re looking for. This app is linked to Facebook as well, and will show you friends that you have in common and only matches you with friends that you have uncommon through Facebook.
So, it’s kind of less creepy if you want to feel a little bit more secure. I’ve never tried this one before but I’ve also heard great things. I’ve also heard that a lot of women have found well-rounded men here because they have been friends with their other friends, since they have mutual friends in common through Facebook.
Also, I made a video which I will put up here on the information card for you to check out about dating profiles, online dating, do’s and don’ts, and it’s full of great advice all in one video just for you, so be sure to check that out.
