Best 420-friendly dating sites for pot lovers and cannabis enthusiasts

The gist: It might not have the cultural cachet of apps like Bumble or Tinder, but Plenty of Fish(Opens in a new tab) is one of the most popular dating sites among singles, with over 100,000,000 members from all around the world. And it’s not just for dating — if you’re looking for a new smoking buddy, this is a great way to meet less-than-romantic connections too. Just about anyone looking for any companionship, friendship, or relationship can find it on Plenty of Fish — and yes, it’s cannabis friendly, too.

Just know that you’ll want to get comfortable when you sign up for a profile: A long personality assessment will take about 20 minutes to do with the rest of your account setup. However, the initial investment is worth it: Plenty of Fish rewards users with features that most apps make you pay more for, like messaging, matching, testimonials, favorites, and more (that’s not to say you can’t upgrade for more, though). 

Why it works: Plenty of Fish(Opens in a new tab)  is a good alternative to OkCupid and Zoosk — in terms of dating apps, they’re all kind of in the same “tier.” 

While you can search by location, age, and gender, you can also search by interests like “420-friendly” and “cannabis.” You’d be surprised how many people who use the dating site are weed enthusiasts or use marijuana regularly. Although Plenty of Fish wasn’t created with cannabis in mind, it was built in a broad way so that singles have developed a category for it based on their interests. Given how friendly Plenty of Fish is toward weed users and how big its member pool is, it makes for a better experience for some than the marijuana-specific sites and apps, which tend to have a much smaller user pool. 

The cost: Plenty of Fish is free to use and download. However, you could upgrade to a premium account with more perks like Super Yes-es, tokens, and zero ads.
