10 Surprising Dating Apps You Never Knew Existed

Your true love is 'out there' and so are some of these websites.

Sure, you know the big dating sites but what if your tastes are more specific--MUCH more specific? If you never thought you could find a partner who has the same priorities, preferences, tastes, fetishes, lifestyles, or medical conditions as you—the following list of REAL dating sites will give you new hope:

1. (I) Can Do Better (than my current partner)

Think you can do better? Post a picture of you and your partner, members of the site vote on which of you could do better and that person gets to join the site. It's true what they say--it takes a village…

2. Salad Match

Avoid that horrible first date awkwardness of ordering a Waldorf salad only to discover your date is into Cobb. Having spinach in your teeth was never more fun!

3. Vampire Passions

This is one of MANY dating sites for vampire lovers. Needless to say, most of them feature attractive women clad in scanty black clothing and tag lines like Bite Me! None feature coffins and tag lines like I Love Velvet!

4. Diaper Mates

If you thought your relationship was a big poopy mess, wait till you meet the folks on this diaper fetish website!

5. Ugly Schmucks

As the site says, “With ugly dating, you can date ugly people who know exactly how you feel!” Yeah, double down on low-self-esteem! Why just date an ugly person if you can find one who's also a schmuck?

6. STD Match

People with STDs often fear they’ll be rejected once they disclose their STD to their date, so why not connect with others who have the same one? Sure, you have to post your picture on the site but you can’t go fishing without bait, even if the bait is crabs.

7. Mullet Passions

I’m not sure ‘passions’ is the first word I would associate with ‘mullet’. Maybe Mullet Beer Gulpers was already taken.

8. Hot Sauce Passions

I’m guessing this one is for people who aren’t into oral sex...

9. Clown Dating

The site has a wonderfully upbeat message: “It's no fun looking for love when you're a clown, behind all the make-up and the red nose is a lonely heart.” I'm sure the site is very successful--what could possibly be more romantic than a clown horn?

10. Amish Dating

Umm, given how the Amish feel about technology, how are they supposed to use the App?
