And unlike other interracial dating sites, e Harmony won’t make you spend hours scrolling through hundreds of profiles.

Instead, we’ll send you a carefully selected batch of interracial singles every day, specially tailored to you; saving you time and only introducing you to people who you’ll really want to meet.

That’s why we take time to really get to know you and find out what you’re looking for in a partner.

We’ll help you to meet interracial singles who are open to dating someone from another race and also share your core values – that really important stuff that goes beyond skin colour, culture, heritage and language.

Our overarching mission is to see Black Women live their best life.

But you have to get on before you can find success, so if you’re just starting, you picked a good time.

Completely different situation," one of Ansari's dates says over some glasses of red wine.
