Friday, 9 November 2018

Hey everyone!

Dating in the present times can truly be a pain for men and women alike. If you are wondering why I am talking about dating when I am married now, well, it’s because before I found my Mr. Perfect – I have had a fair share of experience with few dating apps as well as saw my close friends cribbing about the lack of a decent dating app that has genuine like-minded profiles, is unlike the other hookup-crazed swiping apps or isn’t filled with people desperately seeking marriage.

If there’s one app that has answered their pleas is OkCupid – a fun, interactive and highly accurate dating site that lets you search and view complete profiles and communicate with other members for free.

With the numerous focused, relevant and thought-provoking questions it asks each member while signing-up, it helps you break the ice and get to know your match well, especially at times when you don’t know how to keep the conversation going.

You’re More than Just a Photo

OkCupid stands out in the sea of irrelevant dating apps, as it tries to understand the personality of each member and respects the time and effort that goes in creating a profile and connecting with like-minded profiles. And that’s why a member can’t just create a profile by adding few pictures; one has to share their story through really insightful questions that bring out your persona even if your bio/picture doesn’t.

Building a profile on OkCupid is actually a lot of fun with questions like Would you rather go to a music festival or sporting event? And you can also choose the answer that you would want your ideal match to share.

Therefore, the profiles you come across on the app are more creative, interesting and thorough; giving you a good insight about the person you are going to interact with – something that really lacks in theirs online dating counterparts.

Unique Features

You can make the first move by commenting directly on a photo or a section of a profile you liked, increasing your chances to get connected.

One of the interesting (but paid) features of OkCupid is Boost that lets you shine out of the other profiles as it shows your profile more often in match results and on DoubleTake, so that if a match is interested in you, they can Like you back.

Topics feature allows you to share more about things that matter to you like Travel, Music etc,. and further prompts you to write about interesting topics on the same that’ll show on your profile with other essays.

Safety

Being a woman in times where virtual safety is a big concern, OkCupid does its bit by making sure that the profiles listed on the app are genuine with real names.

Also, with their Zero Tolerance Policy, and bad behaviour reported gets immediately moderated away, making the app a safe place for dating.

With so many unique features and their complex yet really accurate matching mechanism, OkCupid is definitely sticking through its logo – Dating Deserves Better, and therefore, if there’s one dating app you need to be on right now if you are looking for a meaningful relationship, it should be OkCupid that offers a good experience and modern vibe that’s a refreshing change from the swipe left-right dating apps that don’t offer anything more than hookup crazy matches.
