A 2023 Pew Research Center survey found that 1 in 10 partnered U.S. adults met their partner on a dating site or app, and for adults under 30 it was 1 in 5. That includes people who are married, living together, or in a committed relationship. Pew also found that finding a long-term partner is one of the main reasons people use these apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which apps are best for people who want to marry?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hinge calls itself \u201cthe dating app designed to be deleted.\u201d Profiles can show details like dating intentions and relationship type, so it\u2019s easier to find people with the same goals. The app is free, with a paid Hinge+ upgrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">eharmony launched in 2000 and is built for people who want long-term relationships. You answer a long questionnaire, and it matches you with people based on personality traits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is there a good dating app for plus-size singles who want to marry?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. Bustr is a dating app for plus-size singles, BBW (big beautiful women), BHM (big handsome men), and their admirers. It launched in 2015, is free to use, and has a paid Premium plan. Bustr also offers video verification to help cut down on fake profiles, according to Global Dating Insights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Bustr, as on any app, it helps to write \u201clooking for marriage\u201d in your bio so matches know your goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I choose the right app?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start with your goal. Say in your bio that you want marriage or a long-term partner. Choose apps with profile verification to help avoid fake profiles. Then give it a few weeks before you decide, and move from chatting to meeting in person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hinge and eharmony suit most marriage-minded singles. Bustr suits plus-size singles who want a body-positive community. The best app is the one where you\u2019re honest about what you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-green-cyan-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bustr.onelink.me\/sT5n\/k5mwbvw3\">Find Your Love Here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The best dating app for marriage is one where people clearly say they want a long-term partner.
