As we quote la reine of love songs, Celine Dion – – – Oui, Oui ,’L’amour existe encore!’
It’s understandable if you’re sick of online dating. There are so many different apps to choose from now, and the endless swiping and constant cheesy chat up lines are enough to make anyone give up. Online dating has definitely reached a plateau, but that doesn’t mean your love life should too.
In a world run by technology, it’s easy to forget that something like dating is all about real life connections, and we need to be careful not to forget that.
This is where The Inner Circle comes in. The online-meets-offline dating app that hardly wants you to use it. It might sound weird, but they’ve turned online dating upside down and rather than coaxing you into hours of swiping and chatting, encourages offline meet-ups as quickly as possible.
Here’s what they’re doing:
- No catfish, fakes or frauds
If you’re going to date offline, you need to have the confidence to know who you’re meeting. The Inner Circle does everything they can to keep their members safe and undaunted by the real world, so they manually check that each member is who they say they are. Each profile picture is also checked to make sure it’s up to date, so no one has to worry about being catfished or tricked by other users.
2. First dates are super easy
The Inner Circle has this unique feature called ‘spots’. It’s a user-curated list of venues that have been tried and tested for first dates. Basically it means setting up a date is as easy as possible, because you don’t have to worry about where to go. There’s also an option to check out your favourite places and see who else likes to go there, you already have that much in common you can skip the chatting and ask to meet.
3. Users can ditch the swipe, and meet face to face
But if even the idea of swiping, matching, chatting sends you shivers.. Why not meet in real life? The Inner Circle hosts dating events, in cities all over the world every week. They vary from underground house parties to rooftop cocktail classes, and are always a sell-out. In a new motive to get as many people meeting as possible, they’ve started putting on cocktail masterclasses, pop-up festivals, and even members can host their own singles events.
