The AfroRomance Interracial Dating Site

AfroRomance is a popular niche dating site that allows people to look for a partner online. The site specialises in black/white interracial dating. The site is based in the USA, but has members from all around the world.

AfroRomance offers a few different ways of contacting members. There are chat room facilities as well as the ability to email members. There’s also a flirt facility if that’s your kind of thing. The site lets you know who’s online so you can talk and chat to members in real time.

All dating sites suffer from scammers, so it’s always something to be wary of. Unfortunately African countries such as Nigeria are known for their scammers, so this is something to be particularly wary of on an African dating site. Thankfully the majority of scammers are quite easy to spot. They’re usually young and have sexy looking photo profiles. Most scammers are recent sign ups to a dating site, although be aware that some scammers sign up to a site and then wait for their account to age a few months before using it to scam people.

A bigger problem is with timewasters. Sites such as AfroRomance which offer flirt and chat facilities are a haven for timewasters as well as those people in the married but looking category. I don’t know if studies have been done but I’d suspect that a large percentage of the members of dating sites such as AfroRomance are actually already married.

Finally a lot of women using AfroRomance have been disappointed with the men on offer. Quite a lot of men on AfroRomance are said to really be looking for Asian or Latino women and not black women. There are also a lot of men who are just looking for really pale skinned black women.

One of the largest African dating sites is Afrointroduction. The site has thousands of members. It is a pay site, but has a reasonable monthly fee, which is heavily discounted if you take out a three month or annual subscription. Afrointroduction is managed by Cupid Media, who have a huge range of popular niche dating sites. The sites have good levels of security including requiring members to upload photographic evidence of their identity.

Afrointroduction has male and female members from all over the world so you shouldn’t find it hard to find a partner on the site. The search facilities on Afrointroduction are top quality. When you want to compare yourself with a possible partner it’s easy to see if you are a good potential match due to the side by side comparison of you and the other person’s details. This makes it easy to spot potential problems, like they are looking for someone in a different age range or they are a smoker. To avoid timewasters it’s best to stick to members who have paid for membership of the site and who log on regularly. These people are easy to spot as they appear higher up in search results.

For South African singles, take a look at South African Cupid.

Instead of using a niche interracial dating site an alternative is to simply go for a mainstream dating site. Most of the larger dating sites allow you to set racial preferences for your potential partner. Large sites like eHarmony, Match.com and Plenty Of Fish have tens of thousands of members which gives you a lot of choice, but finding a perfect match will take a lot of time and effort.
