I have a confession: I've been super into DILFS lately! I told my friend about my confession at a park recently, and that's how I ended up writing this Single Parent Match review. Single Parent Match seemed the most approachable dating site to connect with single parents — and it's open to people connecting for friendship too!
What is Single Parent Match & who is it for?
Single Parent Match was created in 2001 as a way for single parents to connect. It's owned by a Silicon Valley tech firm and affiliated with the SuccessfulMatch.com network (which houses BiCupid, MillionaireMatch, SeniorMatch, etc.). Most people were in their thirties/forties with slightly more men than women.
Best for: Single parents seeking relationships, single parents looking to match with non-parents open to kids, people looking for long-term relationships or friendships.
Not for: Those not open to dating someone with children, quick flings, or couples.
How does Single Parent Match work?
