Which of These New DATING APPS Sound Good to YOU?
Ship. Ship, allows your friends to swipe for you.
Hinge. Hinge links up with your facebook and matches you with people you have mutual friends with.
Hater. [Really? Just. Why.] Hater matches you up with someone based on–you guessed it!–what you hate.
Loosid. Dating app for non-drinkers.
MeetMindful. This is all about “connecting with intention.” There’s no swiping, just a questionnaire which asks about your feel-good passions (yoga? spirituality? meditation?); then presents you with a platter of people you can choose to “like.”
Sweatt. Of course: fit people looking for fit people.
Twindog. This app is for dog owners, and allows you to match with other pups in the area. Oh, and maybe you’ll fall in love with their person.
Bristlr. It has the direct tagline of “connecting those with beards to those who want to stroke beards.”
Sizzl… is for people who like bacon… swipe right on people who like the same kind of bacon. ???
HighThere! is a dating app that’s been referred to as “the Tinder for weed.” Like Tinder, you can choose to connect with people nearby (or pass) just for fun and friendship or for a serious relationship — and everyone who uses it already knows that it’s a community for marijuana smokers. The founder apparently came up with the idea after the matches he got from other dating services were turned off by his smoking habits. The service is only available in locations where cannabis is legal, and all users must be 21 or older.
MULLET PASSIONS As if this list couldn’t get any more ridiculous, yes — there’s actually an online dating website for people who still love that insanely outdated “business in the front, party in the back” hairstyle trend. I’m not sure how great the matches will be since Mullet Passions is targeted to such a segmented group of people, but at least it’s totally free to sign up, so you have nothing to lose. Believe it or not, this site is part of a network of over 250 other niche sites for online dating — from pirate enthusiasts and scuba divers to truckers and redheads.
Sea Captain Date: Online Dating for People Who Love Sailing
If you’re a man or woman interested in dating a sea captain, or if you’re a sea captain yourself, then the Sea Captain Date website is everything you need to find your perfect soulmate! That’s right, you can connect with other lovers of the sea for dating, friendship, penpal writing, sailing together or just casual sex. The service has apparently been helping thousands of “lonely sea captains” find their match. “In the unforgiving ocean of love,” the site reads, “let us be your lighthouse.”
Luxy…
Of course, there are now several, but here’s one dating app, which is geared toward millionaires, supermodels, celebs, CEOs, and others in the 1%. It once referred to itself as “Tinder, minus the poor people.” [Oh, come on!]
