Online dating for friendship

Is this a thing? I've been single for 4 years, separated when I had 2 very young DC. I get night without them once on a blue moon. I'm not there yet with starting dating, but recently, I have been feeling lonely. Not often if I'm honest, I'm pretty good on my own with my DC. But sometimes, after they're in bed, it's just me.

Wrt dating, I just can't see how I could,if I wanted to. I get so little time without the DC.

So, are there "dating " sites/apps for friendship?

Bumble has a setting for friendship. There's also Frolo and Meetup.

I'd also recommend joining some Facebook groups that you are interested in. Wild Women Wanderers and Adventure Singles Dating are brilliant groups that regularly organise meet ups around camping and hiking if that's your thing. Quite a few are suitable for bringing kids. Good luck with it, I'm in the same position and it's hard Flowers

Thank you the groups sound great but yes, they'd have to be child friendly. Currently I don't any full childfree weekends but hoping for that in the future

I've seen a few members bringing their children along. Wild Women Wanderers is currently organising a women only music festival that is child friendly.
