Dating in Maine: questions and answers

How do I find singles in my part of Maine?

Every town in Maine, from Portland to the smallest, has its own page with the people within 30 miles of it — start with yours. More than 590,000 people live in Maine. In the app you choose the distance yourself: from 5 miles to 300 miles, or “Any distance”.

Is there a free dating site in Maine?

Yes. YADate is a free online dating site, in Maine and everywhere else: profiles, search filters, likes, messages, voice messages and gifts cost nothing, and there is no premium plan. Daily caps exist only to stop spam: up to 40 new conversations a day, for example.

Are the singles in Maine real people?

YADate never creates fake profiles or writes on behalf of people who don't exist. A moderator checks every photo before it appears, every member confirms an email address, and any profile can be reported. If someone asks for money or rushes you onto another app, report them — a moderator will look into it.
