Success Stories

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 met my partner on this site which seemed to have people I could relate to. I met a few. Now I'm very happy to have met someone genuine who was keen to meet someone too and we clicked on first meeting! We are going forward working out being together and training our own lives and having such fun when we meet. Thank you!
