Proposal Hiccups



Mark and Fiona
“For over two years I was single, losing all faith in whether I would ever fall in love again. I tried so many different dating sites to no avail. I’d been on eHarmony for a long time and it got to the stage where I was about to give up when I received an icebreaker from Fiona, just before the end of October 2010. She was the first person to contact me on your site and the last. Since then I have never looked back."

Simon and Hollie
"My first date with Hollie went really well as we already had plenty of common ground, and while the initial nerves were present, we sat there as if we'd know each other for ages. After the third and fourth date we realised that eHarmony had allowed us to step straight into our relationship, by helping us to get to know each other really well."

Kate and Alex
"In 2011 I had a list of ten things to do with my year which I’d never done before. Joining an online dating site was one of them so at the beginning of the year I signed up to eHarmony. We were matched on Valentine’s Day and I saw that as a sign that this was meant to be, even though Alex lived so far away in New Hampshire, USA."

  • Married: 26th January 2012



Gary and Holly
"Following the painful breakup of a long term relationship I had with my daughter’s biological father I was more than ready to be single. In fact I would say at that point I could not see myself ever wanting to enter into a relationship with anyone ever again."
  • From: Oxford, Oxfordshire

  • Engaged: 16th August 2011
