Women in the USA are so spoiled. They just get their pick or whatever guys they want and they're still not happy. I honestly don't think women would be able to handle it mentally if things were reversed. If men were the ones with all the dating opportunities and the women were the ones struggling.

Tired of never finding the high-quality Greek matches on dating sites that you'd really like to meet?
Whether you’re still single in Greece or will likely be traveling there in the near future, you’re probably looking for agape in all the wrong places.
Try one of these 8 best Greek dating sites and apps, and meet that someone special!
(And if you’re looking to meet local Greek singles outside of Greece, check out this article!)
Badoo
If you’re not on Badoo yet, you’re missing out on the chance to meet some very attractive Greek singles.
Badoo has more of a hook-up/casual vibe, so if you’re looking for something more serious, you’ll want to use it in conjunction with an app like Bumble or Coffee Meets Bagel.
The “Encounters” section is similar to Tinder – you can swipe right on profiles that catch your eye, left if you’re not feeling it. You’ll also find a section where Badoo lets you know if there are any users nearby who share similar interests, and if you’ve crossed paths with any during the day. If you “like” a profile and the interest is shared, you can exchange messages.
You’ll find all the functions you need to meet Greek singles on Badoo are free, like profile creation, viewing photos, and exchanging messages.
But Badoo offers a few bells and whistles with a Premium membership that might come in handy:
The Premium features, called “Super Powers”, start at $1.99 for one day or $7.99 for one week, up to 6 months for $95.99 and lifetime access for $159.99.

Travel Girls
If you’ve got a trip to Greece in the works and you’d like a personalized tour from an attractive local, you’re likely to find one on Travel Girls.
It’s not a traditional dating site. Instead, it links women and men from all over the world with people seeking travel companions.
And if you’ve got the funds, you may find someone who’s happy to accompany you anywhere you’d like to visit…
Browsing profiles and creating a trip suggestion is free, but sending and reading messages requires a premium membership. You can sign up for 1 month ($69), 3 months ($156) or months ($199).
Tinder
You’re likely on Tinder already, and if not, what are you waiting for?
It’s one of the most popular dating apps in the world, and if you’re in Athens or any other large city in Greece, it’s worth the download.
You probably already know how Tinder works: swipe right or left, mutual interest = match → message exchange.
It’s most popular with the 35-and-under crowd, but that doesn’t mean you won’t find Greek singles of all ages using Tinder.
A Tinder Plus subscription gives you access to the Passport feature, which lets you swipe through Greek singles anywhere in the country – or singles anywhere in the world, for that matter.
Here are the other features that come with Tinder Plus, and the additional perk you get for upgrading to Tinder Gold:
You can get Tinder Plus for $19.99/month (or $9.99/month if you’re under 31 years old). Tinder Gold costs $21.99/month, but committing to multiple months at a time will lower the price.

OkCupid
If you’re in a large(ish) city or near a University and in the market to meet Greek singles in their 20s to 30s, you’re going to kick yourself for not being on OkCupid yet.
OkCupid’s one of the most popular free dating sites precisely because you can send, read, and reply to messages without a paid subscription, and do most everything else as well.
But there is *slight* hitch – for someone to see your first message in their inbox, they must have “liked” your profile first.
If not, your profile will be featured in their Search, Discovery, and Double Take feeds. When they check out your profile, your message will show there.
Like most other popular dating sites, you have the option to upgrade to a Premium membership, and OkCupid offers two levels:
Upgrading to A-List Basic starts at $19.95, A-List Premium at $34.90. At both levels, committing to 3 or 6 months at once will bring that monthly price down.

Bumble
Want to meet beautiful women in Greece, but don’t want the hassle of having to send them the first message?
You need to get your Bumble on.
The basic premise is the same as Tinder – you can swipe right or left based on your preference, and exchange messages with anyone who “likes” your profile as well.
Here’s the “but” – when a match is formed, only women can send out the initial message.
And she only has 24 hours to do it. Once a day has passed, the match expires unless she reaches out. And if you do hear from her, you also only have a day to respond.
Once those two hurdles are cleared, the two of you can exchange messages for as long as you’d like.
If deadlines aren’t your thing, consider upgrading to Bumble Boost. The premium subscription gives you the ability to add an additional 24 hours to the countdown on a match that’s about to expire.
Plus you can immediately re-match with expired matches, without having to wait for them to come around again in your queue. And having a dedicated feed of users who have already “liked” your profile can be time saving, since any right swipe = instant match.
You can upgrade to Bumble Boost for 1 week ($8.99) up to 6 months ($79.99).

CoffeeMeetsBagel
If you’re in your 20s or 30s and don’t have time to swipe through a ton of profiles every day, consider CoffeeMeetsBagel’s “quality > quantity” approach to matching.
Guys receive up 21 “bagels” every day at noon, and can like or pass on them accordingly. Women also receive a handful of bagels at noon, but they are all profiles of guys who have “liked” them already.
Both men and women only have until noon the next day to like or pass on each one – after 24 hours the matches will expire and you’ll get new bagels. When both bagels “like” each other, messages can be swapped.
CoffeeMeetsBagel is designed for people who are serious about moving things off the app, which is why a message exchange can only last for 7 days with each match.
Similar to Badoo’s “Encounters”, CMB has a “Discover” area where you browse profiles. But to “Take” (AKA “like”) a bagel here, you’ll have to spend beans.
Beans are the app’s internal currency, which you can purchase outright or earn by doing various activities within the app, like completing your profile or inviting a friend to try it.
CMB also offers a Premium membership for $34.99 a month. When you subscribe, you’ll have access to an Activity Report on each bagel, which shows you how active on the app they are.
You can also like 5 people without spending beans in the Discover section, and see any mutual friends you have in common with a match.

Once
Like CoffeeMeetsBagel, Once doesn’t overwhelm you with choices. In fact, you’re only given one match each day.
You then only have 24 hours to like/pass, and you can exchange messages when there’s mutual interest. Unlike CoffeeMeetsBagel, there’s no time limit imposed on the message exchanges.
If you want more than one match every 24 hours, you can buy “Crowns” and spend them within the app:
This is a good app to try if you’re serious in your quest to find your soulmate in Greece. But since it doesn’t have the numbers that flock to dating apps like Tinder and Badoo, you may want to use it in addition to another dating site or app.
Download Once here:
Happn
Happn is for all those Greek singles who wish they had a second chance to walk up and say “hi” to someone attractive.
The app displays any Happn users who have come within a certain radius of you during the day, and gives you a chance to turn a missed connection into an opportunity. You can set the distance as close as you like, and expand it out to 90 kilometers.
You’ll also see how many times you’ve encountered a particular person, and where/when it was. And if another user is near you in real time, you’ll get an alert.
When you’re interested in a profile that pops up in your feed, simply “like” it. If the other user “likes” you back, congrats – you’ve made a “Crush”. You can exchange messages with all your Crushes for as long as you’d like.
Happn is a good app for spontaneous dates, thanks to a feature called “I’m Free To.” You just choose an activity like seeing a movie, getting a cocktail, going for a walk, etc… that you’d like to do that day.
Over the next 6 hours, any Happn users who come within range can spend a credit and respond to your date idea. Credits can be earned by doing things like referring a friend, or purchased from the in-app store.
Since Happn is solely based on how many other users cross your path in a given day, this dating app works best for people living or working in large metro areas like Athens.

What are you waiting for? Take the next step now…
1. We are born and forever will be, Greek American Princesses #GAP
So let’s face it, the sad truth of the matter is… we’re spoiled. We get what we want, when we want it. Maybe it’s the fact that our people have existed since the beginning of time, or simply because our parents have brought us up in such a manner, but we have a sense of entitlement that’s hard to surpass. Call it bad, call it sad, but at the end of the day, we find it to be so darn rad!
2. Our Daddy is our Real-Life Hercules.
Our Daddy is our knight in shining armor- our first love- our invincible, emotional and financial supporter. He is our number one. Sorry potential mates, but you’ll never compare.
3. We have HUGE families.
Huge is an understatement. We’re “obnoxious” and “loud,” which frequently gets misconstrued with the word, “fun.” We don’t understand the meaning of the word small; we do everything big and bigger. Greeks are competitive creatures; it’s all about one-upping your friends and your foes. Oh, my neighbor has two cars; well I need to have three. You can’t simply make one batch of cookies; you must make 10, so that you can give extras away to your family and other Greeks, of course. Big families are what we do, and what we know. We procreate because it is beautiful- it’s as plain and simple as that.
4. We have options when pursuing a man…
They are to be Greek, Greek or Greek. Interestingly enough, we don’t necessarily mind this requirement. While growing up as a Greek girl, you have many expectations to fulfill… One of which, is pursing a Greek man. Our parents don’t want for us to settle down with an outsider, and neither do we. We are to pursue a Greek man in order to get married and raise our future family within the Greek Orthodox Faith. Struggle, hardship and unnecessary challenge are associated with settling down with anyone who is not Greek. We pursue Greek men because we know they will treat us as our fathers have (Greek Princesses, remember?).
5. The church you attend… TELLS ALL
Upon meeting another Greek person for the first time, the following conversation takes place (there are no variations). It may sound interrogative to others that don’t understand how we function; yet for us, this is developing a new (potentially mutual) connection or relationship.
What’s your last name?
Do you know so and so?
What church do you attend?
Do you know so and so?
Where’s your family from in Greece?
Do you know so and so?
By asking #2, one is quickly informed of the following: suburb one is from (not only where they grew up, but how they grew up), socioeconomic background, who to ask that could provide you with more background on this person, and of course, how much competition they confronted you with back in the day, for Greek Olympics.
6. We are expected to return to the motherland EVERY summer. But, hey, we’re not complaining about it.
While most of society sits there, and dreams of visiting Greece one day, we have the opportunity to disconnect, transcend reality, and dream away while we are in Greece. As a child, we may sit there and mope about the fact that we are leaving our American friends for summer, yet years down the road, we look back on these moments as the most blessed, unique, authentic and meaningful experiences that we have ever had in our lives. We have learned how to appreciate the simple life, and when I say, “simple life,” I mean “village life.” We have been forced to live without Internet for weeks at a time, therefore forcing us to develop and thrive with our solely based on our ever-developing interpersonal capabilities.
7. Our parents are VERY protective over us.
I don’t think you understand the severity here…. No sleep overs, no talking to boys, no late nights, no hanky pankey, no lying… ahhhh, I’m exhausted, and trust me, the list goes on… Our parents have instilled fear within us; they have raised us to be obedient and respectful daughters. There is nothing more disgraceful than a daughter who is known for making poor choices. This represents bad news for not only the family as a whole unit, yet this is detrimental for the daughter and her chances of courting a quality Greek man. No Greek family ever wants for their child to be the center of the Greek gossip circle- that reflects poorly upon the parents.
8. We cook like it’s (oh, excuse me), we cook BECAUSE IT IS our job. And we learn to love it young.
It’s all about living a traditional and conservative lifestyle (at least in the public spotlight; what you do behind closed doors is your business and your business only). We go by the old book: men work, and women stay at home, where they tend to the home and children.
9. We are all Greek Goddesses.
So, we’re bombshells…. Each and every one of us… Ever heard of selective breeding, survival of the fittest, oh yeah- that’s us- the Greeks. How else do you think we’ve endured time?
10. We were eating Greek yogurt, with honey and walnuts, way before it was “the cool thing to do.”
Well… we were. Expect, we’d make it from scratch. Americans don’t have time to create yogurt from scratch- they’re busy working.
11. Gossiping is our guilty pleasure.
Greeks will talk smack about one another all day long- no problems here. Yet, the second a non-greek chooses to also take part in the banter, all hell will break loose. That, my friend, is unacceptable. Speaking poorly upon another Greek (when you, the speaker are not) is the equivalent of speaking poorly upon my family.
12. Our ideal beach duo. Carroten kai frappé.
Yup.. There’s no point in hiding the obvious. We love and adore the beach for it enables us to thrive. We apply our Carroten to our already bronzed bodies with hopes of displaying even darker shades. While we basque in the sun, absorbing as many rays as possible, we sit there and sip on our frappé. The need for water or food you may ask? Those simply are not necessity. There’s another time and place for water and food, our answer is simply not the beach (as I blow smoke out of my mouth.)
13. We’ve been to some of the most beautiful, exotic beaches on planet earth.
You know how there are certain things in life that are just too difficult to explain due to their unfathomable state of perfection- Greek beaches are one of those things. Those days spent swimming the crystal clear blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea, the relationships that were built, the memories that were formed are all things that we store within our little black book, titled, Unforgettable Life Experiences. We’ll revisit this little black book from year to year adding more memories with new faces and new stories. Those days spent at the beach are the moments in which you wish you could just freeze all time – stop the clock and never grow old; until one day, you do grow old, and see your children building the same beach memories that you too have, and yet there’s this internal emotion of melancholy meeting cheerful. It’s a place to live, to communicate, to play and to experience eternal youth.
14. We don’t play well with others… but seriously though.
We struggle to understand others. We try to be empathetic, yet our extreme ways of life often hinder our ability to fully comprehend the lifestyle of another individual. This is why we stick with our own. Our grandparents did it, our parents did it, and what the heck, so will we. We understand the importance of tradition, and we too will relay this on to our children one day.
16. We love to get our Greek dance on.
Kalamatiano: Hands down, the most pleasurable workout you will ever indulge in. The repetition of steps and circular movement suddenly become second nature as you’re immersed in the strumming bouzouki and echoes of the singer. This, my friends, is how the Greeks feast, and yet still manage to pull off their Adonis/Aphrodite bods and beauty. The food functions as fuel for the endless hours of dance that welcome in the morning sun.
17. We blast our Greek music on those warm, summer nights.
That moment when you pull up to a red light in the city of Chicago at 1am, and have Panos Kiamos roaring out of every open window… It’s just then when you realize 1) you’re unintentionally disrupting the peace, and 2) the neighbors next to you are staring, and are utterly confused by the fact that you’re jamming out by your lonesome. Regardless of how portray yourself to these onlookers, you just don’t care because it’s the equivalent of taking a mental vacation over to the homeland.
18. “Islander” or “Mainlander,” because you know there’s a difference.
I’m an islander and my boyfriend is a mainlander. Why would I ever do such a thing, you might ask? To put it simple, we balance each other out. While both brunette, he’s fair and I’m olive. He has brown eyes and I have green eyes. He prefers the village and I prefer the beach. He chooses SPF and I choose oil. He thrives on patience while I thrive on speed. We’re both free spirits with some deep-rooted contradictory. He’s afraid of deep waters and I’m afraid of the mountains.

There are not many islanders in the states, because they’re often too comfortable to leave. The mainlanders, disconnected from much of society due to geographical location, are often forced to flee in search of greater opportunity. Although I don’t like to rub in too often, because I obviously love my boyfriend and all, the islands are rightfully placed on pedestal.
19. We take pride in everything we do.
As mentioned, prior, were selective in our choosing. We don’t jump until were ready to fly. What we do, we don’t only do it good, yet we do it great. We believe in ourselves and even more importantly, we believe in our families – we work hard to create a legacy, a name, a sense of connection for those that come after us. Whether we own a small, local business, or a large, successful monopoly, we take time, pride and consideration in every small step of the way.
20. “Passion,” is what runs through our veins – both men and women alike. Always has been, always will be.
Dating Greek Women In The Usa List
Our country, our religion, our culture, our language, and our lifestyle, are all still in existence and thriving today because of our eternal drive and innate sense of passion. We’re non-stop lovers, looking and spreading warmth all around. We get loud, were emotional and we do it all, with good intent. We’re protective, concerned and cautious, yet fierce, aggressive and bold. Ask any Greek what has spurred their success, and I promise you, passion will be their response.
