by eharmony Editorial Team February 15, 2024

If you’re currently on a lesbian dating site or app, you likely know online dating has become the most popular way singles meet. And this is truer of the LGBTQ+ dating scene. Seeing as dating apps seem not only here to stay but becoming more of a courtship standard, how can you achieve the best connections? If you’re looking to interact dynamically with other lesbian singles who complement your values, personality and lifestyle, here’s why eharmony is one of the best dating apps that helps lesbians find real love.

How to find a girlfriend on a lesbian dating site

Meeting LGBTQ+ people online can be tricky as spaces are often trolled. You have to know the right places, particularly if you’re looking for social opportunities like you’d find on a lesbian dating app or gay bar.

LGBTQ+ safe spaces

The key to enabling lesbians to interact online in a hate-free, safe conversational space is heavy moderation and strictly enforced content policies like TrevorSpace for LQBTQ+ youths.

Leading social media platforms have proven ill-equipped for this so many gay people interact on the content platform Tumblr and user-moderated communities like Reddit and Discord.

Using a lesbian dating site or app

Many lesbian dating apps provide a guaranteed safe and inclusive environment and many leading ones incorporate purely social features for a single lesbian, chat rooms, friend adding and discussion communities.

A dating site designed for all types of compatible singles

While many gay singles like using a lesbian dating site, others opt for conventional dating apps for their enhanced features and reach. Many have turned to eharmony for our unique and effective approach to connecting singles, with a distinct focus on compatibility and our commitment to helping all members find a lasting, authentic connection.

Our service isn’t just about answering the question, ‘Are there single lesbians near me?’, but rather what singles in your area and further afield are right for you.

Our Compatibility Matching System helps foster authentic connections for the LGBTQ+ community by taking a deep dive into your personality, helping you learn more about yourself and better understand what you’re looking for in a relationship.

Looking for quality lesbian dating connections? How eharmony can help

eharmony uses you as the starting point instead of making you endlessly swipe through singles in your area like some other major dating apps and dating sites for lesbians.

Our Compatibility Quiz gets to know the real you

eharmony is not just another lesbian dating site – we believe love happens when you find that person who gets you. That’s why everyone starts with our Compatibility Quiz. This helps us get deep insights into your inner self to find members whose personalities complement yours.

The key to succesful lesbian online dating starts with your profile. We make this process as enjoyable as possible by having richly detailed profiles that are easy to digest. That’s why eharmony is the dating app with the highest-rated user profiles.1

Explore lesbian singles

In your Discover list, you’ll find every eharmony member who fits your search criteria. Each member you see will display a Compatibility Score based on how likely you are to hit it off. You can filter who you see based on traits you share (e.g. distance, education, age, wants to have kids etc.) – and you’ll also see what you have in common with each member

Profiles that give immediate insights into what connects you

Unlike many other apps or lesbian dating sites, we don’t bog you down in details. Instead, show you what you and another member have in common and what connects you.

Not sure how to get the conversation started? We’ve made it easy: Matches are made from liking any aspect of another member’s profile in your Discover section – a photo or a hobby, for instance – and receiving a Like in return. 

Two Likes make a Match

Once you get a Like back, it’s a Match. Congratulations! You can now swap messages and send Icebreakers or react with a Smile to get to know each other better.

Because we believe love happens when two people connect based on what really matters. If you’re ready to find out, sign up today.
