About FET: Alternative Dating
FET is alternative dating for open-minded people: singles, couples and everyone in between. Chat rooms, groups, a forum, local events and lifestyle dating, all in one place. An alternative lifestyle community. No explaining yourself, no judgement.
A REAL COMMUNITY
Join groups by interest, follow the forum, post to the newsfeed and get answers from members who have been there. Ask the awkward question. This is the part most dating apps don't have.
CHAT ROOMS AND PRIVATE MESSAGES
Live chat rooms to meet people in the open, private messages when you'd rather talk one to one. Chat first, meet when you're ready.
DATING, YOUR WAY
Browse profiles, connect with open-minded singles and couples near you, and be clear about what you're looking for. Casual, open relationships, polyamory, ethical non-monogamy (ENM), or something lasting. Your call, stated up front.
DECIDE WHO LEADS
Some like to take the lead. Some prefer to follow. Some switch depending on the day. FET is where open-minded people are honest about the dynamic they want, and where clear consent comes first, always.
EVENTS AND MEETUPS NEAR YOU
Find local events, community gatherings and workshops. Meet new people in person, at your pace, with people who already get it.
SAFETY AND DISCRETION
Verified profiles, discreet settings and a dedicated moderation team. Control who sees you and how much.
