Who is online dating right for?

Are you looking for a long-term relationship? Are you tired of receiving obscene messages on dating apps like Tinder? Then you should take a closer look at LemonSwan. LemonSwan is for everyone:

  • who values personality at least as much as appearance.

  • who value fair play.

  • who are looking for more than superficial validation in interpersonal encounters.

  • who value security in their search for a partner.

Even in the age of online dating, love is as emotional and romantic as it once was for Romeo and Juliet. Reputable dating agencies such as LemonSwan create the ideal conditions for a long-term and happy relationship.

With the innovative LemonSwan® method, singles who are particularly well-suited to each other in terms of personality are brought together. Attitudes, values, and interests that are particularly relevant for a long-term relationship are surveyed. We use a matching process that suggests promising partners for you. It shows you at a glance what you have in common with your potential dream partner.

Another big advantage over dating apps: the serious desire for a long-term relationship.

Security is our top priority

If you are concerned about your privacy, you can relax. Communication is anonymous and takes place in a protected environment. Each profile is individually checked by LemonSwan gatekeepers.

This is how our gatekeepers guarantee you a safe partner search. Each member also decides for themselves who they want to share their pictures with and when. Until then, they are displayed blurred.

Security and the protection of personal data are top priorities at LemonSwan. Compliance with strict European data protection regulations, the use of 256-bit SSL encryption, and anonymous ciphers are a matter of course for the Hamburg-based company.


5 reasons why a dating agency is just right for you

1. At a dating agency, you meet like-minded people

Unlike chance encounters, with an online dating agency it is clear from the outset that both parties are single and looking for a long-term relationship. So you don't have to spend ages wondering whether he or she already has a partner.

This certainty makes your search much easier. It will also save you a few sleepless nights.

2. Well filtered is half found

Not every single person is a suitable partner for you. Many factors have to be in place for a happy relationship. It also makes sense to check certain issues for possible disagreements as early as possible.

These usually include things like smoking and drinking habits or the desire to have children. In “real life,” it often takes a while before you get around to discussing all of this. Online, it's completely different!

Think about what is important to you beforehand and then set your search accordingly. This makes it easy to find potential partners who definitely meet your most important requirements. It saves time, disappointment, and a lot of stress.

That's why you can also filter certain criteria in your search settings to optimize your list of partner suggestions. Step by step, you'll get closer to your dream partner.

3. Break out of old patterns thanks to matching procedures

Humanity is quite proud of its progress. But in many areas, we are not as self-determined as we think we are. This also includes the choice of a partner. Because here, a lot depends on largely unconscious factors. And that's not always a good thing.

The classic victim of these processes is the sensitive woman. She repeatedly encounters cold, dismissive men. Her world seems to consist almost exclusively of such candidates. With our matching process, however, you will receive partner suggestions that are independent of such psychological processes. In this way, you will become aware of people with whom you can finally break out of your old patterns.

4. You get to know singles outside your usual environment

If you only search in your own city or among your colleagues, you significantly reduce your chances of finding true love. This way, you only get to know a fraction of your potential partners.

With online dating, on the other hand, there are no geographical or social boundaries. What's more, you're not reliant on chance. Instead, you can even get to know people from other states if you're open to it.

5. Online dating: ideally prepared for the first meeting

When looking for a partner online, you rarely go into a first date unprepared. Instead, you have already had the opportunity to study the other person's profile in detail. This allows you to think about possible topics for conversation in advance.

Our guide helps with any further questions and provides helpful expert tips. The best conditions for a successful meeting and great feelings!
