dating

The social freedoms you enjoyed before joining the rat race take a hit once you're working for The Man. Unfortunately for singles, this can be hazardous for your dating life. 

For busy professionals, the idea of "finding someone" might seem like a daunting task. With deadlines, work dinners, and meetings galore, trying to meet someone often falls to the very end of your to do list. This is why dating apps were invented though: to make online dating way easier, enabling you to use your free time wisely. (Waiting for a meeting to start? Swipe on Tinder. Commuting to work? Message with that cutie you found on OkCupid.)

Whether it's something casual or a real relationship that you want, there's an app that will make your search a whole lot easier. Ranking highest on our list were EliteSingles, Match, and OkCupid. We found that with sites like eharmony and Match, the initial output (i.e a lengthy sign up and/or membership fee) is worth it for the return. After all, those who are willing to pay the price for love are clearly serious, unlike some swipe-based free apps where the likelihood of even meeting up in real life can be slim to none.
