Serious LGBT Dating for Real, Long-lasting Relationships

We all deserve love, and we all have the right to love equally and plan a future with whomsoever sparks our passion. Being an LGBT single looking for a long-term commitment can be a difficult process of bad dates, flaky people and your friends trying to set you up with their co-workers or cousins because, well, they’re the only other gay, bisexual, trans or lesbian person they know! For those tired of the scene, yet still hoping to make a meaningful connection, there’s a new stage being set online…

Have You Found Your LGBT Dating Scene?

Online dating is now so common that not only is the social stigma around finding a match online vastly lower, it’s actually become the norm. In Britain, one in five relationships begins on the internet as nine million of us attempt to find love online per day and the attitudes are growing progressively positive. In fact, the online dating scene has surged for people under 30 – as expected – but also for those in their 40s, 50s and even early 60s. This means the chances of LGBT singles finding “The One” online has doubled in the last couple of years.

Okay, so you know the stats. But do you know your scene? One of the hardest things about LGBT dating can be finding the right platform for you. Like anything, it helps to know what you’re looking for, long-term. But, it’s not all on you. Pick the wrong site and your results could be disastrous. You’re a successful man or woman looking for a same-sex relationship and they’re just looking for some casual fun? Sound familiar? We looked at the best gay and lesbian dating apps and found a common theme.

The problem with many of the modern LGBT dating platforms is that, while they may be niche, catering specifically to queer singles, there are no “barriers to entry”, so to speak. Anyone can sign up, without any kind of commitment or requirement. This means, they don’t quite know what they’re looking for — and if you do know that what you’re looking for is a passionate partnership and perhaps even marriage, then you’re just wasting your time while they waste theirs.

LGBT Dating and Love Re-imagined

Let’s face it: meeting singles online, whether you’re straight or part of the LGBT community, can feel like a really distant experience with no connection to who you are or what you’re looking for. Dating apps and sites often give you a platform to connect with matches online but they fail to go the extra mile. Anyone can sign up and the process of making those connections, browsing profiles and finding “compatibility” is largely up to you. It can get exhausting and can start to feel pointless.

On standard LGBT dating sites, the strategy is usually just to get some kind of response from another person. Because of this, any attractive single you have your eye on can be bombarded with messages from so many others and you’re simply lost in her/his/their inbox. If you’re a lesbian woman, or a gay man, looking for a same-sex relationship, many of these sites and apps don’t filter based on preference; even if you’ve marked yourself as LGBT, you may still be matched with incompatible partners or even the opposite sex.

A profile and photos can only tell you so much. When you’re hooking up, this is not a big deal. But when you’re looking to find a relationship that’s going to be based on a long-term commitment, you need the process to be as organic and supportive as possible. EliteSingles offers an intelligent matchmaking process that is curated and supported by our in-house team. You’re not simply signing up for a spot online — you’re opting into a wide and diverse community of truly elite singles, with our members holding an above average education and our Customer Care team carrying out daily profile quality checks to ensure a safe dating experience with real people.

Clarity Is More Important Than Planning

The truth is that you can’t plan for love — it comes in at the right time when it’s supposed to. But this doesn’t mean that you can’t increase your chances for finding the right same-sex relationship for you by using an LGBT dating site and app like EliteSingles.

You can’t plan love but you can definitely get clear on what you want in your partner and that is exactly what EliteSingles is all about: we not only want you to be clear and serious about finding a meaningful, marriage-minded connection in your life, we want your matches to be the right ones for you. We want to get clear on who you are and what you do so that our streamlined dating service can deliver 3-7 truly compatible matches daily.

Get started with our easy registration process and take the EliteSingles unique personality test. Our intelligent matchmaking system sorts users based on test scores, location, education and income level. Besides this, our tried-and-tested method of finding compatible matches for LGBT dating takes the time to understand our members’ personalities. The difference is that we know our members, and we know that they’re all looking for long-term love…
