Success Stories

I've got engaged to a lovely lady and we have just celebrated a year together despite being 180 miles apart.
Jon, 16 January 2026
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. (-;

I created an account on a whim and within a few days started messaging a guy whom I have spent the last 4 months getting to know. He seems to be all I've ever wanted in a relationship and I'm very happy.
