Dating in Pokhara
Pokhara is a city many visitors pass through, which can make it surprisingly hard for the people who actually live here to meet someone who is staying. Wrati helps you find people who call Pokhara home, and lets you say what you are looking for from the start.
Free to join for men and women
What dating in Pokhara is actually like
Lakeside is busy with travellers for much of the year, while most residents' lives happen elsewhere in the city. Knowing whether someone lives here, or is just passing through, is the first useful filter.
Many Pokhara families have members working abroad — in the Gulf, Malaysia, the UK and beyond — and many young people are weighing whether to follow. Being able to talk about that early saves both people time.
Nepali is shared, while Gurung, Magar and other languages are spoken at home by many families. In-chat translation helps when two people do not share a first language.
Dating, relationships and marriage in Pokhara
Marriage is often part of the conversation sooner here than in Kathmandu, and families are frequently involved. Wrati lets you state your intention and keep the early conversation private.
Whatever you are looking for, you say it up front. Your intention — Marriage, Long term, Short term and others — is shown to the people you match with, so someone looking for a life partner and someone looking to date can each find people who want the same thing.
Love in your language
Languages commonly spoken in Pokhara include Nepali, Gurung, Magar and English. On Wrati you can list the languages you speak, and in-chat translation helps when you and your match do not share a first language.

Is Wrati free for both men and women?
Yes. Creating a profile, photo verification, discovering people, matching and starting conversations are free for everyone. Premium is optional and adds extras such as unlimited chats and calling.
Can I use Wrati if I am looking for marriage rather than dating?
Yes. When you set up your profile you choose what you are looking for — Marriage, Long term, Short term and other intentions — and that is shown to the people you match with, so marriage-minded members can find each other without guessing.
Will other members see my phone number?
