Frequently Asked Questions
What is The Purple Pact?
The Purple Pact is a platform for people seeking intentional, platonic life partnerships — including lavender marriages, co-parenting arrangements, shared housing, and lifelong best friends. We are not a dating app.
What is a lavender marriage?
A lavender marriage is a marriage between two people — often LGBTQ+ individuals — who are not romantically involved but wish to enjoy the legal, social, and practical benefits of legal partnership. Historically, these arrangements protected LGBTQ+ people from discrimination. Today, they represent a chosen family structure.
Is this a romantic relationship platform?
No. The Purple Pact is specifically for platonic partnerships. Romance and sexuality are not part of the relationships formed here. Members are seeking committed, intentional partnerships without the romantic component.
Who is this platform for?
The Purple Pact welcomes adults of all backgrounds who are seeking intentional platonic partnerships. This includes asexual individuals, aromantic people, LGBTQ+ individuals, single parents seeking co-parenting partners, people seeking shared housing companions, and anyone who values deep platonic commitment.
How does matching work?
We use a detailed compatibility questionnaire covering values, lifestyle, family goals, and partnership vision. Your answers are compared with potential partners to generate a compatibility score. You can also browse profiles and filter by location, partnership type, and other preferences.
Is my information kept private?
Yes. Your profile is only visible to other registered members. You control what information you share publicly. We take privacy and safety seriously and have a robust reporting system.
How do I get verified?
Verification is available to members who submit a government-issued ID for review. Verified members receive a badge on their profile, increasing trust and visibility.
