Glaries vs Shimy

Sick of the usual, boring dating apps full of swiping, ghosting and catfishes? Well, Glaries is here to spice that up! Skip the chase and small talk and meet someone in real life. Our mission is to get people talking, meeting up and shining bright like Glaries IRL! Glaries is a one-of-a-kind dating app that focuses on only active, real-life dates and gives you the chance to meet that special someone in person. First, you can choose whether you’re looking for a relationship, coffee, or a few drinks - followed by a location and time. Then, simply let fellow Glaries come to you! You get to approve them too, by reviewing 10-second video applications to your proposed date - so no catfishes in here! Or you can apply to join a date with someone you quite fancy by sending them a fun, quirky video. The choice is yours, all you have to do is join, and become a fellow Glarie! With Glaries, you say goodbye to small talk. Goodbye boring chat, and waiting three hours or days for their reply, and say hello to meeting that special someone IRL! There’s no ghosting or catfishes here as absolutely everyone is an active, potential date, or dater. Simply choose whether you want to set up your date, or join one, and review or make 10-second video pitches of the perfect date. It’s that simple. And the best part? It’s totally free! Now, here’s the boring bit. Live a little: Glaries is about spontaneity - instead of waiting around to meet the special person IRL. You can only set up a date until the following week- so be quick, and set up a date on a whim! One at a time: Then, once you’ve confirmed a date, you have to say buh-bye to other applicants - so make sure you’re choosing what is right for you. There’s no two-timing here, sorry! Once you’ve secured a date, be nice and be on time - yeah? Safety first: Safety is our utmost priority, so we advise you to meet at a neutral, public place where you know you’re safe and secure. Once you’ve set up your date, the exact location won’t be revealed to everyone - just your chosen Glarie! No cringe: And if (on the rare chance!) it doesn’t quite work out, your date details will be erased, so there’s no trace of a dating history to cringe over. Keep in touch: Let us know how your date goes and reach out to us at hello@glaries.com. All your personal data is handled under the terms and conditions of Glaries’ privacy policy, found at https://www.glaries.com/privacy.
