Are We Dating The Same Guy Groups After the Shutdown: Which Are Still Active, City by City

Are We Dating The Same Guy groups after the shutdown: a city at night and a phone face down on the windowsill

By the MGMT Reputation team · Updated 28 October 2026 · We update this page every month

Are We Dating The Same Guy groups did not all disappear after the September shutdown announcement. On 28 October 2026 we confirmed groups still open and running in 30 US states and Washington DC, plus Toronto and several UK cities. If you were posted, the post may well still be there. An AWDTSG search costs $299.99 for the first group, with your private report within 72 hours, and AWDTSG post removal is $2,999.99: most removals are done within 14 days, and if it’s not removed within 30 days you get a full refund.

This page lists, at city level, where Are We Dating The Same Guy groups are still active today. We never publish group names, links or anything about the people posted in them.

What the shutdown actually changed

On 10–11 September 2026 the founder of the network announced that every group in it would close. We covered that announcement in detail in what the AWDTSG shutdown means for the posts about you.

Seven weeks on, three things are clear:

  • Groups wound down unevenly. The network was run by volunteer moderators across hundreds of groups, and many of them never closed. Some kept the old name, some renamed themselves, and some moved members into new groups.
  • Independent and copycat groups were never part of the shutdown. Groups with different names that run the same way (women-only, posts about men, comment threads) carried on as normal, and some grew.
  • Closing a group doesn’t erase what was in it. Screenshots get shared on Reddit, TikTok and X, reposted into other groups, and saved by members. A post can outlive the group it started in.

So the honest answer to “is it over?” is no, not for the posts already out there.

Where Are We Dating The Same Guy groups are still active (checked 28 October 2026)

The table shows the places where we confirmed at least one Are We Dating The Same Guy group still open on 28 October 2026. It comes from our own searches, not from a public list. We show cities and regions only.

Two caveats. A place missing from the table doesn’t mean there’s no group there: some groups are private and hard to check, and others change their names often. And a group open today can close or rename next week, which is why we recheck and update this page every month.

What happened to the Are We Dating The Same Guy London group

London had one of the biggest groups in the network, reported at well over 100,000 members. After the shutdown, that group no longer appears in Facebook’s group search, although Google may still show an old listing for it.

London hasn’t gone quiet, though. The city is now covered by several smaller Are We Dating The Same Guy groups: the largest has around 24,000 members, and most of them post every day. There are also separate groups for North and East London and for West London, Reading and Berkshire. For anyone posted in London, that means a post can now sit in any one of several groups, not just one.

Our UK AWDTSG removal team searches all of them for you.

Why some groups are harder to see than others

Most Are We Dating The Same Guy groups are private. Admins vet who joins, and since the shutdown many have tightened their rules. Some now ask for proof of a real profile, others only approve members from their own area, and a few have stopped accepting new members altogether.

That matters for you because you can’t simply look yourself. Men are turned away from these groups by design, and friends who join to check for you can be removed the moment they’re spotted. It’s also why a search done once in September may already be out of date: a post can sit in a group that has since renamed, or be reposted into a new one.

What this means if you were posted

If a post about you went up before September, assume it may still exist somewhere, even if the group it started in has closed. The realistic options are the same as before the shutdown:

  1. Find out for sure. Our AWDTSG search checks the groups for your area for posts using your name and photos, and you get a private evidence report within 72 hours. It’s $299.99 for the first group and $149.99 for each additional group. If you’re also worried about the Tea app, adding the Tea search takes $50 off the pair. Our guide to free Tea app checkers explains what the free ones do and don’t show.
  2. Have it removed. If a post is found, we handle the removal through Facebook’s official reporting channels. We never contact the poster or the group admins. It’s $2,999.99 for the first post and $999.99 for each additional post. Most removals are done within 14 days; not removed within 30 days, full refund.
  3. Keep watch. Reposts are the main risk now that groups are splitting and renaming. AWDTSG and Tea monitoring scans every week for your name, photos and phone number, for $499.99 a month, billed in advance.

Every job is paid upfront, by card, bunq, ACH or Zelle. All current prices are on our pricing page.

What to expect next

The network said it intended to come back as a web-based platform. Nothing has launched publicly as of 28 October 2026. If it does, it could bring old posts back into circulation, so we’ll report it here when it happens.

In the meantime, the pattern we see is Are We Dating The Same Guy groups breaking into smaller, more local groups with new names. For anyone posted, that means more places a screenshot can resurface, and fewer people who know where to look.

Frequently asked questions

Are Are We Dating The Same Guy groups still active after the shutdown?

Yes. On 28 October 2026 we confirmed groups still running in 30 US states and Washington DC, plus Toronto and several UK cities. Some kept their names; others renamed or started again.

Is the Are We Dating The Same Guy London group still active?

The original London group no longer appears in Facebook’s group search. London is now covered by several smaller groups, the largest with around 24,000 members, and most of them post every day.

If the group I was posted in closed, is the post gone?

Not necessarily. Members save and share screenshots, and posts get reposted into other groups and onto Reddit, TikTok and X. A search is the only way to know.

Can I check the groups myself?

Usually not. Are We Dating The Same Guy groups are women-only and vetted, and men are turned away. Friends who check for you can be removed once admins notice. We run the search for you and send a private report.

Why don’t you publish the group names or links?

We show cities only. Publishing names or links would only send more people into the groups, which doesn’t help anyone who has been posted.

How often is this page updated?

Every month. Are We Dating The Same Guy groups close, rename and restart all the time, so we recheck before each update.
