’People didn’t have mobile phones and laptops, and the process was people would go home, log on slowly, see who had written to them and write back,’ she says. ’The courtship process was a lot slower, so it took quite a while to get from the first interaction to actually going on a date. Plus in those days, there was a stigma associated with online dating. You did not tell people you met your spouse, or partner, or even a date online.’

As we've changed, so has the online dating landscape. you’re more than just a photo. You have stories to tell, and passions to share, and things to talk about that are more interesting than the weather. Get noticed for who you are, not what you look like. Because you deserve what dating deserves: better.
