Catholic-Owned
Commitment There are over a dozen Catholic online dating sites and the sad truth is that less than half were even started or are owned and run by Catholics or Catholic organizations. Many of them are off-shoots of other larger generic dating sites. Those sites try to brand them as a Catholic dating site but upon signup you see that the questions they ask their members are not even Catholic, but in some cases not Christian at all.
CatholicDaters.com prides itself in being a 100% Catholic Online Dating website. The site was started by Catholics and the management knows that if it is not run by Catholic principles then it will be doing a disservice to our members.
Many of our profile questions are specific to life as a Catholic - we ask about your Catholic status, your prayer life, how involved in the church you are. If you will marry in the Catholic church and what your attitudes on authentic Catholic church teachings are. We also have an essay question asking this, " Explain your outlook and relationship with Catholicism, the Church and God."
Catholics come from many backgrounds and beliefs and their attitudes can definitely vary. We help our members to discern what type of Catholic they are meeting on the site.
Many other Catholic dating sites also allow the marital status option of "Divorced" on their site. We do not do this because the Catholic church teaches us that you can get divorced but you cannot re-marry in the Catholic church. Therefore if you are a Catholic and have been divorced and are on a Catholic Dating site, your intentions for dating may not be allowed. In doing this we try to protect the integrity of our member base. This may not be popular but then again - the Catholic church teachings are not always popular. We take seriously our slogan of "Where True Single Catholics Click".
As an organization that works with and promotes other Catholic causes we are truly proud to donate a small portion of members fees to Catholic Charities.
