Alternative Dating

Alternative dating online could be the most fun you’ve had on a dating site before! Our dating site helps you find people who have similar interests, hobbies and passions and could make your matching easy, seamless and fun! You can use We Love Dates to help you find and match with fellow single alternatives from further afield or from your local area – simply search for your type by location, it’s as easy as that!
Being a single that is interested in alternative things and lifestyles, you’ll understand the importance of unique taste, understanding and being a free spirit. It might be hugely important to you to match with someone who has similar tastes – be that a love of tattoos, piercings or a certain style of music; this means that the base of your relationship can be built on strong foundations with mutual passions and hobbies! Dating someone who has their own take on alternative fashion and styles means that they will understand how important your tastes are, what tattoo you’d like next and why being yourself is so important. They’ll be able to appreciate how important it is to find someone who is completely right for you!
With We Love Dates, you’ll be able to take dating on the go. This means that you could be getting to know someone new while your next tattoo is being needled in; you can chat to new friends that you’ve found online while sipping a glass of wine at home on a Saturday night; you can flirt and exchange messages with someone exciting and new while chilling at home watching tv.
You can take your new alternative completely at your own pace and date happily in your comfort zone – if life gets too hectic or it all gets too much, you can simply put your device down and come back to it at another time.
Alternative dating should be fun, it should fill you with anticipation, excitement and butterflies – we want to help you get that!

Frequently asked questions

Is We Love Dates a genuine alternative dating site in New Zealand?
Yes. We Love Dates is designed for alternative singles seeking friendship, romance and genuine relationships. Every member is manually checked against official government ID, helping keep the community free from bots, fake profiles and catfishing. You can connect with like-minded people across New Zealand based on shared tastes and lifestyles.
How much does We Love Dates cost?
Joining We Love Dates is free, while ID verification requires a small one-time payment of £1.99. That verification checks every member against official government ID. The payment supports a community focused on real, high-intent people seeking genuine connections rather than the anonymous, throwaway experience often associated with swipe-based dating apps.
Can I find alternative singles near me in New Zealand?
You can search for alternative singles by location, whether you want someone nearby in New Zealand or from further afield. We Love Dates also lets you tailor potential matches using details such as age, build and appearance, helping you look for people whose interests, hobbies, passions and alternative lifestyle complement your own.
Can I meet people who share my alternative interests?
If you are into tattoos, piercings, alternative fashion or particular styles of music, the site is built to help you meet people who understand those tastes. Profiles can include photos and details about your life, giving potential matches a clearer sense of your personality, passions and what you want from dating.
Can I use We Love Dates on my phone?
Yes. We Love Dates allows you to search, chat and exchange messages on the go, including from your device at home. You can get to know alternative singles at your own pace, put your device down whenever life gets busy, and return later when you feel ready to continue your conversations.
How do I stay safe when meeting someone from We Love Dates?
All members must be 18 or over. Although every profile is checked against official government ID, you should still date safely. When meeting someone for the first time, arrange to meet in a public place and tell someone where you are going. Take conversations and in-person dating at a pace that feels comfortable.
