Questions

GayBFF in Asheville

Is GayBFF a dating app?

No. GayBFF is only for making friends. There is no dating mode, and profiles are built around the kind of friend you're looking for rather than who you want to date.

How do I meet people in Asheville?

Create a profile, verify your identity, and you'll see other verified members in Asheville ranked by how well your interests and the kind of friendship you're after line up.

Does it cost anything?

No. Making a profile, browsing and messaging are free. GayBFF Pro is optional.

Do I have to verify my identity?

Yes. Every member passes an ID and selfie check before they appear to others or can send messages. It's the reason the community stays real.
