Read our full Match review.
Target audience:
Match might not be the first place you think of when it comes to geek dating, but don’t give up just yet. The diverse user base means you’ll find a wide variety of people here, including fellow nerds and geeks. According to Match’s website, 19 percent of users are between the ages of 18 and 29, 44 percent are between the ages of 30 and 40, and 37 percent are over the age of 50.
If you’re willing to invest a little time and money (yes, Match is a paid site), your chances of finding love could be greater. After all, your dream match might be lurking not on a niche dating site, but on one of the biggest dating platforms.
Reasons for choosing this:
Match may not be free, but sometimes the best things in life (like finding player 2) require a little investment. And this app is worth it. The platform is user-friendly, has a clean interface, and comes with a lengthy matchmaking questionnaire to help you optimize your dating profile and narrow down your matches as efficiently as possible.
But what really makes Match stand out for geeks is the level of customization you can give your profile. There’s a huge library of interest tags so you can express your love for gaming, horror marathons, or the latest VR tech. Let everyone know you’re a Comic-Con regular, a quiz champion, or someone who values ”intellectual stimulation” (and who doesn’t?).
Plus, Match gives you the chance to get really nerdy by answering questions about your favorite games, books, movies, and more. The paid features also help you filter out people who aren’t looking for a serious relationship, and the requirement to post at least one clear photo (you can add up to 26) shows that everyone on the platform is willing to make an effort.
