We've all either used them or thought about it! If you're new to online dating, here are the reputations of a variety of different dating sites and apps, from someone who has had her fair share of using dating apps:
1. Tinder
"I'm looking for hookups or just something casual."
Most relationships that come from this rarely last past cuffing season.
2. Bumble
"I'll say I'm not sure what I'm looking for even though I know I want a relationship because I don't wanna scare off the guys with commitment issues."
Usually people on here are looking for or are open to something more serious. There tend to be better options on here, meaning the girls and guys are somehow more attractive on this app? (I don't know why but someone please explain!)
3. Okcupid
"I'm trying to fuck something. TONIGHT."
Filled with tons of creepy dudes and almost no girls.
4. Plenty of Fish
"I got one too many dick pics from guys on Tinder and I'm hoping that age-old mantra my mom and grandmother always told me about there being plenty of fish in the sea is true because I've been fishing for too long and am too cute to be this desperate!"
Guys are okay on this app, kinda creepy though. Half of the girls are normal and the other half are eerily desperate and willing to give any man who gives them attention a shot.
5. Match.com
"I am a strong, independent woman, who does not need a man. Buuuuut I really really want a man so here I am!"
Mostly girls on this site, very few guys, and the guys that do sign up to use it are often snatched up right away.
6. Christian Mingle
"This is the only dating site my parents would let me use, so here I am."
Mostly adults on this site, like single parents whose kids convinced them to try a dating site, or young pubescent boys and girls who want to date, but are either home-schooled or they don't know people their age of the opposite sex, so their parents have allowed them to sign up for this site, but to only use it with their supervision.
7. HILY or Ciao
"I've exhausted all of my other options and I'm hoping to GOD that there's someone on this app who wants to date me."
These are the newest apps so the only people on here are horny guys and overexcited teens/preteen girls.
