A first date in Stockholm

In Stockholm it helps to meet halfway rather than in one person's neighbourhood. A place near a transport hub means nobody spends an hour getting there, or getting home.

Staying safe

  • Meet in busy public places and tell a friend where you are going.
  • Never send money to people you met online.
  • Report and block anyone who makes you uncomfortable.

Are the singles around Stockholm real people?

There are no fake profiles here: YADate doesn't create them or chat on anyone's behalf. Photos go live only after a moderator approves them, every account confirms an email address, and reports are reviewed by people. Anyone who asks for money or pushes you to move to another app straight away is worth reporting.

Can I date someone from outside Stockholm?
