Dating in Black Culture

Posted on March 5, 2020March 10, 2020 by blackwf6221

Dating in black culture has changed a lot over the past couple of years.  It used to be that you met a girl in the neighborhood or through friends, give each other your phone numbers and make plans for your first date.  Dating was dinner or a movie and you sat and got to know each other.  Today things are so much different. Today getting to know someone usually happens online or via text message.  Your first actual date can take weeks if not months to happen and you aren’t always meeting people from your neighborhood.

Dating in the Black Community

People don’t just turn to the internet for information and entertainment it has become their source to connect with people socially.  Romantic relationships, hookups and everything else is all happening on the internet.  The internet has given you the opportunity to meet a black man who wants to travel the world with you or a southern gentleman if that tickles your fancy.  You get to do all of that without ever leaving your living room.

Dating Online

Online dating is probably the biggest change to the dating scene in the black community or any community for that matter.  Today, people young and old use online dating site or social media platforms to meet other people.   Your chances of meeting a good black man or woman is more likely to happen online than it is anywhere else in the community.  There are more than a billion users of social media alone making it that much easier to meet someone online even without going through a dating site.

Wider Dating Pool

The internet has hundreds if not thousands of black dating sites that gives you the opportunity to meet people that you wouldn’t normally meet.  Whether you want to meet someone career driven or more family oriented you can approach them in a safe environment.  You can meet like-minded people easily and without the pressures or expectations a social situation can bring.  Here are some of the better black dating sites on the internet where you can meet people.

For better or worse online dating has changed how dating is done in the black community and dating sites and apps are here to stay.  The ease in which you can create a profile and search for someone that interests has got traditional dating beat.  Besides the last thing you want is to be set up on another blind date by your mother.

Best Dating Sites for Black Women

Posted on February 29, 2020March 12, 2020 by blackwf6221

Dating and online dating can be hard enough but if you’re a black woman looking to meet a black man then you want to use a site that will help you find that man.  That being said there are still a ton of dating sites out there and do you really want to waste your time signing up for them all…of course not.  While we haven’t quite worked our way through reviewing all of the dating sites out there we have put together a list of the best dating sites for black women.

Black Cupid

This is probably the biggest and best black dating site on the internet, it is specifically designed for the black community and it has millions of members.  You can create a free profile but to access all of their features you will have to pay.  The site has  loads of features and you can let potential matches know that you want to get to know them by hitting the interest button.  You can chat or video message with potential matches.  It is a great site to meet local singles.

eHarmony

This site has been around forever and was originally created by a psychologist, they boast the highest number of relationships stemming from their site and that includes black couples.  They have specific categories for African Americans and they use an algorithm created by a psychologist to help you find a compatible match.  They have tons of features on the site to help you and it is one of the few dating sites that screens members.

Black People Meet

With more than a million visitors to the site it is a great platform to meet the man of your dreams.  It is super easy to use and you can get started for free but again the paid version unlocks all of the features.  Unlike sites like eHarmony it is not just people looking for long term relationships they have people searching for casual dates as well. It caters primarily to the black community but it will allow other people of other ethnicities who are looking for black partners.

MELD

MELD is an app that caters to black professionals, created by black entrepreneurs but as of now it is only available on mobile phones.  It takes advantage of location based services to show you other black professionals in your community.
