Who it’s for

Every shape of love, said out loud.

On Alap you pick how you do relationships when you sign up, and it sits on your profile for everyone to see. No awkward reveal on date three. No explaining yourself to people who were never going to get it.

SOLO

Single, and dating on your terms.

You’re not looking to be someone’s everything, or you’re not sure you want one person. Meet people who won’t try to change that.

PARTNERED · DATING SEPARATELY

You have a partner. You each date too.

Your relationship is open and you both know it. Your profile says so up front, and you’re asked to confirm your partner knows. On Alap, “my partner doesn’t know” is not allowed.

POLY

More than one love, out in the open.

Loving more than one person isn’t a secret here. Meet people who already get it, without the lecture or the jokes.

PARTNERED · DATING TOGETHER

One profile, both of you on it.

Couples date as a couple. Both partners confirm the profile and both write on it, so the people you meet know they’re talking to the two of you.

COMET · LONG-DISTANCE BY DESIGN

Close when you’re together. Free when you’re not.

Some of the best relationships happen a few times a year. If that’s you, say so, and meet people who like it that way.

STILL FIGURING IT OUT

New to this? Good. Start here.

You don’t need a label to join. Pick “still figuring it out” and meet people who’ll go at your pace and answer your questions honestly.

For every kind of couple

Whoever you are, whoever you love.

Straight, gay, bi, queer, or not into labels at all. Alap is for every adult who wants honesty.
