Unless you’ve been chosen to participate on The Bachelor, chances are you’re one of many ladies looking for love online from the comfort of your phone. We have thousands of possible dates right at our fingertips through apps like Tinder, Grindr, Bumble and we also have access to serious dating websites like Match.com and eHarmony. If you’re considered “city folk who just don’t get”, you even have access to Farmer’s Only!

Regardless of the countless eligible bachelors and bachelorettes on these sites, you might not find the one should your interests be more “refined.” Below, we’ve found 100% real dating sites and services that exist that are a little out of the ordinary. Who knows, one of these web pages could help you find that next someone special!

Sea Captain Date

Instead of a typical “Hey,” you get to greet your date with an “Ahoy!” Sea Captain Date has the tagline “Find your first mate,” and wants love to happen on land and on sea. Certainly avoid this site if you get easily seasick and hate white bearded men. Otherwise, all hands on deck, wink wink!

Dating For Muggles

Alright, you Harry Potter nerds, it’s time to find your perfect wizard-loving match right here. Unfortunately, we are all mudbloods and must live with being without magic, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find a spark between another fantasy lover. Go share a butter beer together and see if you can cast a love spell on each other… and then do it. (I couldn’t find a good Harry Potter euphemism for that last one.)

Gluten Free Singles

If you can’t eat gluten, chances are that dating is hard. Everyone loves bread and Italian restaurants, I mean, have you seen how great Olive Garden is doing? The truth is, diet and lifestyle play a huge role in attraction and romantic compatibility. This dating site makes it easier for individuals with Celiac disease and other dietary issues to connect, empathize and hopefully fall in love with no wheat involved. Other similar websites include Singles With Food Allergies, a site that allows people with high-risk food allergies to connect in the same way. I’m still over here waiting for Lactose intolerant singles.

Gothic Match

Goth girls, this site is for you. Normal guys just don’t get it, and maybe don’t wear as much black as you’d prefer. You can find a significant other who will understand your physical presentation and social preferences. Additionally, if you prefer subcultures similar to that of goth, you might find luck on sites like Metal Dating and Vampire Dating.

Clown Dating

It sounds more like a punchline or a phobic nightmare than a real dating site. Don’t let your clown date pick you up, or you might have to meet all their friends in that car.

Bird Watching Date

If you prefer nature and the possibility of getting pooped on, this might be dating site just for you. Should you have a picnic on your date, you might want to skip chicken and turkey in your sandwiches.

Bristlr

Is touching a beard your thing? Maybe getting your beard scratched is your kink. If so, Bristlr pairs beard havers and beard appreciators together to worship face blankets of all kinds. Bonus points to the men who put cool glitter or flowers in their beards.

Refrigerdating

Every hungry girl will love this out of the ordinary dating service. Instead of uploading your best selfie, you upload a picture of your fridge because well, you are what you eat! The site urges users to not stylize their fridge before the snapshot because, “If this is to work, it needs to be the real thing. Cheating and relationships don’t go together well.” It’s a strange approach, but hey, a fridge is always the way to everyone’s heart. Plus, there might be cake in there.

Dead Meet

If you work in the industry of death as a mortician, funeral director or other occupation, it may be hard to get in contact with the living. At the very least, it may be hard to meet someone who isn’t creeped out by making a living from the deceased, especially if you believe in ghosts. Dead Meet is a service to everyone in the death industry who wants to make a connection with someone who understands death and won’t be deterred by work outside of the ordinary. And can we give a round of applause for the site’s name? That name is funny enough to make comedians roll in their graves.

If you are looking for a dating site that caters to one of your interests, chances are it exists! Other niche dating services include ones aimed at marijuana users, Dr. Who fans and Klingon speakers. Find the one today with a dating service far off the beaten path!
