The best online dating sites for geeks, nerds, sci-fi buffs, and more

Who’s online: A lot of horny people — a lot as in a bigger user base than eharmony. With over 25 million monthly users (that’s more than eharmony) as well as live video options, chat rooms, groups for ultra specific kinks, and more, you can probably assume how wild this site can get. But there’s such a large and diverse group of potential matches, you’re very likely to find someone who’s on the same page as you. The part that you wouldn’t expect is the fact that they do offer tons of compatibility questions and matchmaking services, because they’re that intent on finding you a good lay.
How it works: AdultFriendFinder is our pick for the best hookup site, and that’s because it’s literally impossible to walk away unsatisfied. It’s like a Pornhub that you can actually interact with. 
Regardless of whether you’re looking for an in-person hookup or to blow off some steam via sexting or raunchy videos, AFF has everything that your dirty mind can think of and more. Almost nothing is blurred out (no, really, there are lots of unsolicited dick pics), but if you don’t mind that the entire thing looks like a sketchy “There are hot singles in your area” ad, you’ll be in heaven. (Read our full review of AdultFriendFinder here.)
Why it’s great for geeks: Getting laid can be a struggle for geeks, even if it’s only due to lack of confidence or fear of rejection. There are so many users into so many different things on AFF, it’s not likely that you won’t find someone who wants to meet up and bone. This isn’t the snooty dating site where someone wants you to wine and dine first, and you’ll feel like a total hottie when the likes and messages pour in almost instantly.
Another bonus is that AdultFriendFinder is like the dating site version of New York City (AKA it never sleeps). You’ll find people who work the regular 9-5, people who work the night shift, and people in other time zones, so it’s nearly impossible to log on and not have people to talk to. AdultFriendFinder is like the booty call that’s always awake when you text them.
