Success Stories

He lives ten miles away and my absolute perfect match. He ticks all my boxes AND many more and even our dogs are finding romance ('puppy love' lol!) I feel I've "come home" in his arms. Thank you very much all! Sending love! xxx

I met a lovely man who lives round the corner from me. This was the first person I messaged and the first date I went on. He is the same age as me, attractive and kind, very suitable for me and it turns out we have friends in common. We’ve been in 14 dates together and are now getting close. It’s got all the signs of blossoming into a lovely relationship. I feel very lucky to have met someone. Thank you !
