Single and Sober is a niche dating service that is only available to people who have made the decision to abstain from alcohol and drugs or who are in recovery from substance use disorders.
Since traditional social settings frequently center around drinking or other drugs, the dating platform was created to address the particular difficulties of dating when sober.
Its main objective is to create a safe and trigger-free environment so users can avoid explaining their sobriety to prospective partners.
The dating website places a strong emphasis on intentional dating, advising users who might not be ready for a relationship to prioritize their own development before looking for a partner on the site.
