Stop Playing Games: The Top 5 Types of People Who Belong on Bustr

Let's be honest for a second. If you wanted to play guessing games, be fetishized in secret, or deal with "ghosting" after three days of talking, you would stay on a generic mainstrain dating platform clone.

But we know you are tired.

You are tired of the swipe fatigue. You are tired of men who love your body in private but ignore your mind in public. You are tired of having to apologize for taking up space.

At Bustr, we are leading a revolution in 2026. We dont't just match photos; we match values. We believe that curvy dating shouldnt't be a niche secret—it should be a celebration of compatibility, politics, and chemistry. We are implementing a strategy of Clear-Coding: radical honesty from the very first hello.

So, who makes the cut? We are picky, and you should be too. If you are looking to meet, date, and chat with purpose, here are the 5 Types of People we welcome with open arms and open hearts on the best BBW dating app of the decade.

  1. The Clear-Coder (No More Guesswork)
    In an era of vague "situationships," the Clear-Coder is a breath of fresh air. This is the person who puts their cards on the table immediately. They dont't make you guess if they are looking for a hiking buddy or a marriage partner. On Bustr, we welcome users who state their intentions loudly. Whether you are a curvy woman looking for a fun Friday night or a partner for life, the Clear-Coder respects your time enough to be honest. They treat emotional transparency as the ultimate form of currency.
  2. The Political Ally (Values Over Aesthetics)
    Here is a hard truth: How can someone claim to love a plus-size woman if they vote against her autonomy? We are seeing a massive shift in 2026. Dating is political. In the world of big people dating, we welcome the Ally. This is the admirer who understands that loving a non-standard body type in a critical society is, in itself, a stance. We welcome the user who aligns with you on human rights, body autonomy, and inclusivity. If you cant't agree on basic human values, no amount of physical attraction will make the relationship work. We want users who are proud to be seen with you, both in the bedroom and at the ballot box.
  3. The Whole-Package Admirer
    There is a fine line between appreciation and fetishization, and at Bustr, we draw that line with permanent marker. We welcome the admirer who sees the curvy woman not just as a fantasy, but as a human being with a career, dreams, and opinions. This user loves the curves, yes—but they stay for the conversation. They dont't just want to look at you; they want to meet you. They understand that a plus-size woman is a multifaceted individual, not a category to be checked off a bucket list. If you are here to worship the person, not just the body parts, you belong here.
  4. The Unapologetic Queen
    Confidence is the engine that runs this app. We welcome the plus-size woman who has done the work to love herself, even on the hard days. We welcome the big people who refuse to shrink themselves to fit into someone elset's narrow worldview. Bustr is a space for the bold. It is for the woman who uploads a full-body photo not as a warning, but as a flex. It is for the man who knows what he wants and doesnt't care what his judgmental friends think. If you own your narrative, you own this platform.
  5. The Growth Mindset Dater
    Finally, we welcome the person who is ready to evolve. The old BBW dating app model was stagnant; it was about quick fixes. We welcome the user who views a relationship as a place to grow. They are willing to learn about your lived experience. They are willing to check their own biases. They use the chat function not just for small talk, but to build a connection that has weight. They are looking for "High-Value" interactions that leave both parties feeling seen and respected.

The Verdict?

If you dont't fit into these five categories—if you are here to troll, to hide, or to shame—Bustr isnt't for you. And we are okay with that.

But if you are ready to experience curvy dating the way it was meant to be—dignified, exciting, and deeply aligned with your values—then you are exactly who we have been waiting for.
