23 Years of Experience in STI Dating
Founded in 2001, PositiveSingles emerged at a time when both online dating and open discussions about sexual health were far less common than today. Individuals diagnosed with HSV or other STIs often faced intense social stigma, limited educational resources, and very few safe spaces to meet understanding partners.
Over 23 years, the platform has adapted to changes in:
- Digital technology
- Online privacy standards
- Medical advancements in antiviral therapy
- Global attitudes toward sexual health
Longevity in such a sensitive niche demonstrates sustained trust and operational stability. Experience matters in health-related dating environments, and PositiveSingles’ continued presence reflects consistency and reliability.
The Journey of PositiveSingles: A Legacy of Support 
Launched in 2001, PositiveSingles was created to provide a safe, stigma-free space for individuals with STIs. Unlike conventional dating sites, it catered to a community that often faced social and emotional relationship challenges. The mission was clear: to create an inclusive environment where people with STIs could find love, friendship, and understanding without fear of rejection or discrimination.
Growing Into the Leading STI Dating Platform
Over the years, PositiveSingles has evolved from a niche platform to the largest and most trusted STI dating and support community. With more than 2 million registered users worldwide, it has helped members find love, friendships, and self-acceptance. As the platform grew, so did its influence, with more individuals realizing the power of a space specifically dedicated to them, offering the opportunity for authentic connections.
Achievements Over 23 Years
In its 23 years of operation, PositiveSingles has facilitated over 60,000 success stories, helping people build meaningful, lasting relationships. More than just a dating platform, it has started millions of conversations, fostering a supportive and understanding community for those with STIs.
PositiveSingles has also expanded its features to include virtual support groups, informative blogs, and crucial medical resources, making it more than just a dating site but a community offering comprehensive support.
60,000+ Success Stories: Beyond a Number

- Long-term relationships
