Hang on a minute, wasn't online dating designed to reduce the complexities of finding a partner in the first place?
Bumble is a dating app that only allows women to initiate contact in opposite-sex connections; in same-sex connections either party may initiate contact. Since 2012, Tinder has been matching singles based on their social profiles and geographic location. Both users must “swipe right” before being matched and are then able to chat within the app.
POF.com, also known as Plenty Of Fish, is an online dating site headquartered in Vancouver.
OKCupid is one of the most popular dating sites and is free to sign up initially.
