Dating & Relationships

Some people date to meet a serious partner, while others date casually, hoping to meet a range of people. Some folks also look for sexual partners or hook-ups. More straight and LGBTQ couples meet online and on dating apps than any other way, specifically through dating apps like Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, OkCupid, and more. Sites like Tinder and AdultFriendFinder are known as "hook-up apps" as users don't need to share much information about themselves, whereas sites like OkCupid and Match requires users to answer questions about their ideal partner. Catch all the latest info and recommendations on the most popular dating apps, whether you’re looking to find a spouse or a one-night stand.
