Success Stories

It was a very chance exchange as neither of us felt we were really going to find the right person but I took the plunge to write when you offered a discount and it took off from swapping emails and phone numbers. We are in fact a perfect match. Absolute up front honesty was the key. Thank you.

I can't thank you enough for helping me find my true love again. I am so happy I've met a truly wonderful woman and fell in love. I thank you all for helping me.
Lee, 18 November 2023
We swapped numbers after a few days of general chatting, totally out of character for both of us, a 3 hour 15 min telephone conversation, we have chatted every day since, have met for a day out and we both feel we have been together forever. We are very happy together, learning about each other every day and at times, feel like we're 15yrs old again.....And our Match percentage was only 61% and there is 220 miles between us too We are so, so excited to hopefully grow older together.

I want to let you know that what you are doing is absolutely commendable. And given the number of romance scam, it is good to know that your team is doing due diligence. Well done. I feel safer. I have to tell you that I was very nervous signing up.
