Spectacular First Dates
Lisa and Lee
“I had been single since July 2008 after my divorce and found it difficult to juggle a social life whilst also caring for my two-year-old son, Thomas. In 2010, I decided that I was ready to move on from my past marriage and very much wanted to find that special someone to start a new relationship with."

Mark and Emily
"When we met, I immediately realised why it took me two hours to sign up to eHarmony. Asking so many questions ensured that the girl sitting opposite me was so perfectly matched; I was quite taken aback and how easy and fun her company was."

Stella and Peter
“We ended up meeting on the coldest day of the year in 2010. My friend had recommended we meet at a nice, rural pub but she obviously wasn’t aware that the pub was closed for renovations. After trying the door handle of the deserted tavern, we stood in the frozen car park in a snowy, country lane and burst out laughing…what a good start!"

Claire and James
"After our second date I was going on a skiing holiday in France for a week with a friend and told James that I’d contact him on my return. Whilst away I broke my wrist which was rather inconvenient as James lived 30 miles away. James was just wonderful."

"My theory was that if nothing else, eHarmony would put me in touch with other single people of a similar age and would reassure me that I wasn’t the only single thirty-something out there."
