FAQ
Questions, answered plainly.
If something isn't covered here, ask us directly. We answer our own email.
- Who is RL for?
- Accomplished women who date women and are looking for a relationship rather than an audience. Most of our members are established in their careers, clear about what they want, and quietly tired of apps.
- Do I need to live in a specific city?
- No. Applicants do not need to live in a specific city, and RL is not anchored to one location. Tell us where your life actually happens and we will be honest about the network there.
- Do you accept applicants from around the world?
- Yes. RL welcomes applicants from around the world. Many women are open to long distance relationships, travel, relocation, or meeting someone whose life is not limited to one city.
- Do you support long distance relationships?
- Yes, when it makes sense for both women. Plenty of our members travel constantly or already live between cities, and we treat distance as a detail to plan around rather than a disqualifier.
- How are members vetted?
- Every applicant is reviewed individually. We look at intentionality, lifestyle compatibility, emotional maturity, values, authenticity and relationship readiness. Acceptance is not guaranteed, and that is the point.
- How does matchmaking work?
- The process is thoughtful and personalized. Once you are accepted, we learn your life in detail, then introduce you to women who align with your values, lifestyle and relationship goals. You receive context before you meet and a real conversation afterward.
- How much does membership cost?
- Membership details are shared after the application process. Pricing depends on the level of access and how personalized the search is, and we talk it through properly once your application is accepted.
- Does applying require a payment?
- No. Applying does not require an immediate purchase. The application is free, and any decision about membership comes later, in conversation.
- Do you guarantee a match?
- No. Anyone who guarantees you love is selling something else. We offer selectivity, discretion and introductions we can defend.
- How private is my information?
- Privacy is central to the RL experience. Your application is read by our team and never published. Nothing is shared with another member without your agreement, and there is no public profile to be discovered.
- Are you exclusively for lesbians?
- RL is for women seeking relationships with women. Members define their own identity. What we care about is that you are serious about a woman.
- What happens after I'm accepted?
- We schedule your intake conversation, agree on the right level of membership, and begin the search. Introductions follow once we have something worth bringing you.
