Dating based on interests – When commonalities connect

Same hobbies. Similar life goals. Shared sense of humour.

What sounds ‘nice’ at first glance is often the key to a stable and fulfilling relationship. This is exactly where dating based on interests comes in: when you get to know someone through commonalities, you have a deeper connection from the start.

Because let's be honest: what good is a pretty profile if you have nothing to say to each other on the first date?

Why interest-based dating makes sense

While many dating apps focus on quick swiping, dating based on interests is about quality rather than quantity.

People who share similar passions feel understood more quickly – and often find it easier to strike up a conversation.

Advantages:

Deeper conversations instead of superficial small talk

Greater compatibility from the outset

More ideas for first dates (e.g. hiking together, going to a museum, cooking, etc.)

More personal communication: no standard banter

Examples: This is what dating based on interests can look like

Our platform allows you to search specifically for people who share similar interests and values. These could be, for example:

Sport & exercise: hiking, fitness, yoga, dancing, cycling

Art & culture: museums, theatre, books, photography

Music & concerts: listening to music together or experiencing it live

Travel & nature: sharing wanderlust or discovering favourite places

Food & cooking: foodies take note – the way to the heart is through the stomach!

Sustainability & environmental awareness

Spirituality or faith – this also creates a deep connection
