Success Stories

We arranged to meet and as they say, the rest is history ❤️

The profile process is great, and very thorough, and being specific about what you're looking for makes it easy to see who's a match for you. We had a 90% match rate, and once we started talking it was clear that we were destined to be together, and this platform gave us the nudge we both needed. I can't thank you enough, I can honestly say that I have never been happier.

Over two years together now. When you’re with the right person you absolutely know. After 15 years on my own following bereavement it had to be the right person. There’s never a dull monent. We spend most of our time together with the blessing of our 3 adult children. I cannot believe this has happened. It’s more than I could have wished for. It just takes one click!! Who would have thought..
