The struggle of dating as a single mom is so real! We all want a solid, loving relationship with a partner who enhances our lives (we've already got kids to take care of, not looking for any man children here). But for so many single mothers the frustrations are the same - dating is too exhausting, and the good men are few and far between.
Here are our 3 favorites:
1. Zoosk
This site is aimed at busy singles who don’t have a ton of time to invest in the whole online dating process - and if anyone knows what it is to be busy, it’s single mothers.
Why does Zoosk stand out? The site’s intuitive approach to pairing singles - their Behavioral Matchmaking - continuously learns your likes and dislikes and suggests matches based on these preferences. So the more you use it the better it understands what you’re looking for.
Which means you can cut straight through to the singles who are worth your time.
And moms will appreciate that Zoosk takes safety very seriously.
Their photo verification software ensures that any photo uploaded to the site is the real deal - so you'll never wonder if the person you’re speaking to is too good to be true.
2. Elite Singles
Elite Singles is one of the most popular dating sites around, but still manages to offer a uniquely personalized experience.
The site’s compatibility model takes a psychological approach to matching, and is based on your answers to a wide range of questions.
These questions cover everything - from the personal to the general - and, of course, there are the ever important ones about children.
And when you filter like this from the outset, you’ll save a lot of time later on, knowing you won’t be matched with anyone who doesn’t want kids or isn’t ready for a family. Because who has time for that?
3. Match
Probably the dating site with the most name recognition, Match.com has grown into one of the biggest and best dating sites since its inception twenty years ago.
The dating site’s search tool is perfect for moms who want to filter by kids, income, age, religion and other deal breakers. And one of the best parts of Match actually occurs offline.
They regularly host meetup events, such as bar and restaurant outings, which creates the kind of community you won’t find on any other site.
So if you’re a single mom who’s ready to get back to dating, try giving one of these sites a try and see the difference for yourself.
