This is the second time I’ve used your excellent website and I’ve found my forever partner.
Peter, 16 May 2025
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 !
