Success Stories

I was about to give up when I saw a single photo of a lady who seems to be my soul mate and who had just joined this site. We met for three dates but knew on the first one that we had never enjoyed so much ease in anyone's company ever before. We have never laughed so much or had so may sleepless nights as we communicate daily, several times a day and night. This is definitely it. At our age, we should know. (-;
