STD dating exists to reduce stigma and create a community of empathy. It is for people who value honesty, consent, and compassion as much as chemistry. Instead of worrying about disclosure on general apps, members here know that your health status is only one part of your story. At Positive Singles UK, you can be open when you’re ready and build trust at your own pace.
It’s not just dating — it’s a community of understanding. From first messages to meeting in person, we encourage clear communication, self‑care, and safety. Our forums and blogs offer practical guidance, and our verification tools help foster a respectful, supportive environment across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
There’s no single “right time”. Many members choose to disclose after mutual interest is clear and a foundation of trust has formed.
Be direct without apologising for who you are. You deserve acceptance. Focus on facts, personal responsibility, and your expectations.
Writing key points or rehearsing with a friend can ease nerves. Our community blog offers scripts and examples that you can adapt.
Healthy relationships centre consent and comfort. If someone isn’t the right match, you can move forward with confidence and self‑respect.
Choose public meeting spots, tell a friend, and take time. See our Safety tips for online and offline best practices.

Our mission is simple: create a respectful space where British singles can meet without stigma, disclose confidently, and build genuine relationships. Whether you’re looking for companionship, romance, or community support, PositiveSingles UK offers tools, guidance, and modern features that make online dating safer and kinder.
London’s diversity makes it the UK’s most active PositiveSingles hub. From coffee along the South Bank to evening strolls in Hampstead Heath, members meet in welcoming spaces that suit their style. Many enjoy museum dates, local markets, and cosy bookshops. Whether you live in Shoreditch or Wimbledon, there’s a respectful community ready to connect — discreetly and without judgement.
Manchester’s friendly energy and creative spirit make honest conversations feel natural. Members often suggest relaxed meetups in the Northern Quarter, brunch around Ancoats, or park walks near Didsbury. With a strong student and professional population, it’s easy to find people who value acceptance, humour and real life. The city’s down‑to‑earth vibe is perfect for building trust.
In Birmingham, members appreciate easy‑going connections. Canal‑side cafés, the Jewellery Quarter, and quick rail links make meeting up simple. Whether you’re new to positive dating or returning after a break, you’ll find open‑minded singles who prefer kindness over perfection. The city’s welcoming culture suits low‑pressure first dates and longer chats that turn into meaningful bonds.
Glasgow blends art, humour, and warmth. Members often meet around the West End, Kelvingrove, and hidden cafés that make conversation easy. Scottish charm and directness help people feel comfortable sharing at their pace. From gig nights to gallery afternoons, it’s a great place to rediscover confidence and enjoy company that respects you for who you are.
Leeds’ fast‑growing community is known for authenticity and support. Picture a relaxed tea in Headingley or a wander through Victoria Quarter — simple settings, honest talk. Singles here appreciate clear boundaries, gentle humour and steady, genuine efforts. If you’re looking for consistency and acceptance, Leeds offers a comfortable pace to build new friendships and relationships.
Liverpool’s friendly nature and love of conversation shine through on PositiveSingles. Members suggest Albert Dock strolls, waterfront cafés, and music nights that keep the mood light. People are open, supportive, and straightforward — the perfect backdrop for stigma‑free dating. If you value empathy and laughter, Liverpool welcomes you with genuine community spirit.

“I spent years avoiding dating because I didn’t know how to talk about my HSV‑2 status. PositiveSingles changed that. People here understand what disclosure looks like and respect your boundaries. I met someone kind, patient, and funny who never made me feel lesser. We started with chats, shared book recommendations, and finally met for coffee near the Thames. It felt normal — and hopeful.”
“I’m HIV‑positive and used to worry about rejection. On PositiveSingles, conversations are honest from the start. I matched with someone in the Northern Quarter who values empathy as much as a good laugh. We took our time, talked openly, and I never felt pressure. It helped me rebuild confidence and remember that I’m worthy of love exactly as I am.”
“What stood out to me was the kindness. People ask real questions and listen. I’ve made a few friends and went on dates that felt respectful and calm. We met for brunch in Clifton and walked through the harbour later — no anxiety, just natural conversation. For the first time, I felt genuinely seen and comfortable being myself.”
“I wanted a space where I didn’t have to defend my worth. PositiveSingles gave me that. I met someone who shares my love of music and long walks by the river Kelvin. We took things slow, talked openly, and built trust step by step. It’s the most respectful dating experience I’ve had — and it brought real happiness.”
After an HSV diagnosis, A. felt isolated and worried she’d never date comfortably again. She joined PositiveSingles to find people who value honesty and consent. Over time she met J., a gentle listener with a great sense of humour. They built trust slowly, swapped playlists, and planned low‑key dates around London’s markets. Today, they’re thriving as partners who respect each other’s boundaries and celebrate everyday wins.
M. from Manchester and R. from Leeds matched after a few thoughtful messages. They felt a sense of relief: no need to perform, no fear of stigma. They discovered shared values — kindness, patience, and transparency — and started with video chats before meeting. Between Northern Quarter brunches and weekend walks in Yorkshire, they turned support into romance at a pace that felt right.
S. in Glasgow had put dating on hold. She joined PositiveSingles for community first, romance later. Through forum posts and the blog, she learned practical tips for disclosure and self‑care. She later met someone who admired her resilience and kindness. They agreed to always talk things through, never rush, and keep dates simple and joyful. It restored her belief in love and in herself.
