It’s the age-old refrain of single ladies: Where can I meet someone decent? And, we’ve been there — after a series of dates less thrilling than watching paint dry, it’s easy to feel like throwing in the towel. That is, until Coffee Meets Bagel came on the dating app scene.
This private, totally free service sends you one potential suitor, or “bagel,” each day at noon (another reason to look forward to your lunch break). Pass or like the person, and if the likes are mutual, you can connect directly via text. Plus, each potential match is a mutual friend of one of your Facebook friends, so prescreening is basically built in.
