A paid for service; aisle.co is a members only closed community that allows mingling, for Indians around the world. As for membership, you can expect some strict standards, and the current user base stands at over 5000 members. The difference with aisle? It requires members to pay in order to be able to contact people, hopefully taking care of the bots. The application form does require certain specs, including height, weight, tattoos, piercings, likes and dislikes, that too on a sliding scale. Because we know a yes or no never actually cuts it.

Champagne soirees, sangria sundowners, and networking nights; sounds like a typical event organized by them. A World Alike is an invitation-only network of single, well-educated individuals with shared interests. Their agenda is not actually restricted to being able to date someone, but just so you can meet like-minded people {for whatever reason} in the labyrinth that is Delhi. The idea is to provide a secure, exclusive and discreet space for you to socialize and/or network. They have various membership plans, and will require you to actually send in an application, based on which they will interview and take the final call.

Floh models itself as a platform to meet a life partner, and not a dating service. What it does is connect like-minded, urbane and educated individuals to one another. Every member is carefully screened by its co-founders, as to ensure everyone on there is on a similar wavelength. Members can interact online and offline; where online is defined by your pre-curated Floh profile, and offline, well you take a guess. Floh also periodically hosts interactive events, where they facilitate interaction between members. As for what kind of events you can expect, once you’re chosen to be a member, think cook outs with celebrity chefs, vintage car rallies, dance sessions and brunches.
