Going on a date, and it's just the two of you? How ... quaint. OkCupid's setting up threesomes • The Register
Maybe they will add SquirrelSexual next year?
It can be tough to differentiate yourself in the increasingly crowded dating app market. Which means niches. And OkCupid believes it has found one.
Eschewing any pretense that the majority of dating apps are actually looking for the love of their life instead of a hook-up, the app has added a new status option: in an open relationship. And introduced a new feature that lets you pull multiple people into relationship groups.
The new setting will let you tell others whether you are "seeing someone," are "married" or "in an open relationship." And you can also – theoretically at least – pull people together into threesomes by linking profiles.

That trend is likely linked to OkCupid actively chasing people with non-traditional sexualities. In 2014, it expanded its list of possible sexualities from three (straight, gay or bisexual) to 12 and included "heteroflexible," "demisexual" [Huh? – Ed], "questioning" and "sapiosexual."
