It might feel like this year is already looking to be a write-off when it comes to dating. Let’s be honest COVID is THE WORST wingman. But it’s not surprising, that with not much else to do right now, more people than ever are online dating! Online dating platforms have seen record-breaking new subscribers throughout lockdown. With more people online, your chances of finding someone online at YourType.co.uk has gone up so it’s got to be worth a try…

2020 was the year of toilet roll hoarding, banana bread baking, Tiger King binge watching, mixed with social distancing, mask wearing, and lockdowns might have made it feel like it wasn’t the right time to put yourself out there. But there are upsides to dating in lockdown. Think about all those awkward first date silences or having to endure atrocious blind dates that your friends and family are forever trying to set you up on. Not only that if you don’t like someone, what’s a better excuse to not meet up than COVID? At least with meeting online you can politely decline over a message than try and sneak out of a bar…

Use social distancing to your advantage and find someone online. Find someone who ticks ALL the right boxes. Someone who is 100% Your Type. Then get chatting and see if you hit it off before you meet them in person (when we can!).

Dating on Your Type is different. We don’t waste time swiping or on long-winded questionnaires. We just create a space to chat and get to know new people.

We believe in the power of talking. Especially during this time.

So, if you want to chat to someone new, whether it’s because you’re a bit bored, feeling a little lonely or if you just want to find someone who you can chat and laugh with for hours on end; that someone who just ‘gets’ you, gives you the butterflies and that you just can’t wait to meet, then you want to try Your Type. It’s the perfect place to do exactly that, and with more people online than ever, the odds are in your favour.
