Partner Search in Munich – Online Dating in Munich at Consonance (Gleichklang)
Many might think that finding a partner in Munich or online dating in Munich is easy because Munich is a large city with many singles and many opportunities to meet people. But especially in big cities, it becomes clear that many available people do not necessarily mean a suitable partnership. The high number of singles indicates, on the contrary, that many in Munich are not succeeding in their partner search. After all, most singles want a relationship, and a large proportion of them are active on dating sites.
Dating apps and dating platforms have reinforced the idea that more choice leads to greater relationship happiness. In reality, fleeting contacts often arise instead of committed relationships, while the number of singles remains high.
Consonance (Gleichklang) takes a different approach here:
- What matters is not the sheer number of contacts, but whether people truly align in their values, relationship ideals, life goals, and lifestyles. This is how Consonance supports singles in Munich in finding a committed partnership.
However, Consonance is not only aimed at singles, but at everyone looking for genuine friendships, travel companions, projects, and communities:

Why Munich Is Particularly Well-Represented at Consonance (Gleichklang)
At Consonance, there are more members in Munich than would be expected based solely on the city’s population. This is due to several reasons.
Munich is large, expensive, socially divided, and heavily shaped by performance pressure, status, and Bavarian-conservative notions of normality. At the same time, many people live here who do not align with that at all:
- Those who live left-wing, solidaristic, queer-friendly, vegan, socio-ecological, or critical of society often find conventional dating apps to be a poor fit.
Consonance picks up on this search for alignment. It is not about quick selection, pictures, status, or availability, but about shared values, relationship ideals, life goals, and solidaristic connection.
Consonance (Gleichklang) as a Matchmaking Service for Left-Wing and Progressive People
Consonance is a dating platform and matchmaking service for left-wing, socio-ecological, and socially progressive people in the German-speaking region.
More than 90% of members hold politically left-leaning societal positions. When finding a relationship, they place importance on ensuring that human dignity, social responsibility, anti-racism, queer-friendliness, inclusion, vegan-friendliness, climate responsibility, and solidarity are not excluded from their relationships.
Munich is not only a wealthy, expensive, and conservatively influenced city. Munich also has a history and present of resistance:
- Its history includes the Munich Soviet Republic of 1919, the workers’ movement, trade union history, anti-fascist memory, and resistance against National Socialism. This history points to social struggles, attempts at self-organization from below, and violently suppressed alternatives to the prevailing order.
- Even today, Munich has concrete left-wing, anti-fascist, anti-racist, and solidaristic structures. These include Kafe Marat as a self-managed center with vegan and vegetarian food, lectures, information events, concerts, and political groups, the EineWeltHaus as a venue for international solidarity and socio-political debates, and Bellevue di Monaco as a housing, counseling, educational, and cultural project for refugees.
Such structures show that Munich is not only about career, consumption, and conservative normality. There are also sites of resistance, migrant solidarity, anti-fascist organizing, social struggles, left-wing culture, and practical support for people who are marginalized.
Consonance enables people who locate themselves there to engage in effective partner search, friendship seeking, and networking, so that they can live out progressive, left-oriented, and solidaristic fundamental attitudes together in their relationships.
Queer Life in Munich at Consonance (Gleichklang)
Munich has a long history of queer self-assertion against state persecution, Bavarian-conservative moral politics, police control, and societal discrimination:
- This includes the fight against Paragraph 175 as well as the fight against “Rosa Lists” — meaning police files and data collections on actual or alleged homosexual people. Queer life in Munich has long meant resistance against control, shaming, police violence, discrimination, and conservative sexual morality.
Today’s queer infrastructure also stands in this tradition of self-organization and resistance:
- These include Sub as a queer community center, LeZ as a lesbian-queer venue, the Forum Queeres Archiv München as a repository of queer history, and the Rosa Liste as a municipal political structure that has made queer concerns visible in Munich since 1989.
Since our founding, we at Consonance have stood firmly alongside gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, queer, trans, intersex, and non-binary people:
- Consonance enables them to form genuine relationships with each other that go beyond the quick connections of dating apps and mere sexual contact logic.
At Consonance, sustainable and solidaristic relationships can develop. In addition to monogamous couple relationships, people can also seek open relationships, polyamorous relationships, or swinging relationships.
The search for friendships, projects, and communities is also supported at Consonance. This can be especially important for queer people, because solidarity and mutual support are not limited to romantic partnerships.
Vegan Community and Vegan Life in Munich at Consonance (Gleichklang)
In Munich, there is a visible vegan and animal rights scene:
- This includes vegan meetups, vegan offerings, vegan information work, animal rights actions, protests against animal exploitation, and places where vegan living is connected with political culture and solidaristic practice.
The vegan community in Munich shows that veganism for many people is not just a private consumer choice. It is about animals, nutrition, consumption, responsibility, and social action. That is precisely why veganism is also significant for many people in their search for a partner, friendships, projects, and communities.
Since its founding, Consonance has supported people with a vegan lifestyle in connecting with one another. At Consonance, vegans can find others who understand or share animal ethics, consumer criticism, a plant-based lifestyle, and responsibility.
With our information portal vegan.eu, we further increase the visibility of veganism. There we highlight vegan living, vegan values, societal debates, and the results of large-scale surveys on vegan attitudes, lifestyles, and experiences.
Consonance (Gleichklang) Throughout the Entire DACH Region
Consonance has been active as a matchmaking service and dating platform throughout the entire DACH region (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) for around 20 years. Many believe that geographical proximity determines whether relationships become happy and sustainable. In reality, however, it is primarily values, life goals, and relationship ideals that decide whether relationships succeed.
It is possible to restrict the search regionally. However, based on our 20 years of experience and the evaluation of the trajectories of Consonance partnerships and Consonance friendships, we recommend a search that encompasses the entire DACH region.
Consonance stands for genuine connection between people, for love relationships, and for solidaristic networking. What matters is not the initial distance, but whether people truly fit together and can develop a shared perspective:
