About Us
Welcome to Willow!
This is the dating site for the Willow Community on Facebook. At Willow we believe in real connections which can only happen if you are interacting with real people. We verify that every single member of our community and dating site is a real person. We only allow folks who have been verified by our team onto our dating site.
Willow was created for lesbian identified people, women who love women (WLW), and gender expansive queer folks to form meaningful connections and find loving relationships in the New England states (CT, MA, ME, NH, RI, VT) as well as New York in the USA.
Started by married lesbian couple Kate and Julie, our private community has flourished due to its supportive and caring members. Our practice mostly focuses on single women (cis & trans), but also welcomes non binary folks, trans men, intersex people, asexual people, and practitioners of solo poly/ENM. We do not allow unicorn hunting.
Unicorn hunting has historically been harmful to the lesbian community. It also has the potential to create a power imbalance between an established couple and a single person. What adults do on their own time is not our concern, but on our site, we would like people to be approaching our members 1:1.
We do not currently accept applications from outside New England and New York.
Our values: We believe diversity is beautiful and that representation is important. The LGBTQIA+ community does best when it celebrates diversity and cooperates among the letters with coalition building.
We believe in kindness, support, accountability and growth.
Membership: All clients will be verified by meeting in person or on video chat. Verification typically involves talking to you over video chat and looking at your social media profiles. We do not currently do full background checks.
It’s important to us that everyone is safe and feels comfortable; in addition to being well matched on things like lifestyle when you go out with prospective dates.
