This is a selection of our members' success stories that they've chosen to share with us. If ExpatMatch has brought you together with someone special, we'd love to hear about it. If we publish your story, you'll receive a complimentary ExpatMatch subscription which you can give to a friend, since you probably don't need it yourself anymore! That way, someone you care about stands a chance of finding an ideal match the same way you did.
It has been an interesting and exciting experience. By just having a profile and being able to interact with others halved the loneliness. I am so grateful and thank God that within a month I have been able to find a partner. I pray and hope that all will go well with the new love I have found. I extend my appreciation and thanks to this site. I encourage others to try it. I was skeptical and did not believe anything fruitful will come out of this. Read More

I was very reluctant to try internet dating and when I did, this site was my first and last. After only three dates, one was the perfect guy for me (I was quite specific in terms of whom I went out with)... I have, thanks to this site, found a stunning partner with whom I will have a long and joyful relationship. Nothing to improve your site needed. Thanks a mil. Read More

Rory, 2013-04-30
On joining this site I wasn't at all sure what would be in store for me as I have never done anything like this in the past. It was as if I was going on some new adventure and it was just that. I have, thanks to this site, found a partner with whom I think I will have a long and joyful relationship.
Thank you. Read More
I was on this site for only a week and I believe this is God's work that I found a loving ,humble and a man who loves God as much as I do. It was not going to happen without this site, we both decided to delete our profiles to concentrate on our new relationship,thank you and good luck to other site users. Read More
I met my match near the end of January 2013. We met one evening and hit it off immediately. I felt so honoured that after looking for a year he hadn't quite found what he was looking for and somehow I filled all the requirements, goodness knows I can be a different little person, we had some ups and downs, but he never gave up on me and that can only be love!
To those out there looking don't give up, your match might just be the next profile you click on, sometimes it is hard to believe that you can find love again, but you can! Thanks to this site! Read More
Val, 2013-04-07

Johan, 2013-03-29
Found my wife.
Thank you very much. ;-) Read More
...I was very reluctant to try internet dating and when I did, this site was my first (and last) port of call. When going through the search criteria it helped me to gain a better idea of what I truly wanted i.e. what was a non-negotiable, what wasn't actually that important etc.
The exercise helped me better understand myself and what was good for me...
Any way after only two dates I met the perfect girl (I was quite specific in terms of who I asked out). We are now getting married...
A heartfelt thank you for your help. Read More
Elane, 2013-03-23

After being alone for 9 years and being on this site for quite some time, I met my "Angel" sent directly from heaven. Never did I think this could be possible, but after a few short days and now a few weeks, we are so deeply in love. He is the kindest, sweetest most gentle person you could ever meet. Thank you. To anyone looking for their match, this is the site to be. If you have patience, you will receive the reward.
I love you my baby - You are my heaven. Read More

...We started our e-mail correspondence and met for coffee. had a lovely time and eventally figured out that we were neighbours, 12 years ago, when he was still married and I went to work in London.
He is really the most considerate man I've ever laid my eyes upon and quite romantic as well. We have the same values regarding family life, raising children and our religion . I truly believe that this match wouldn't have been possible without this sites helping hand in creating a joyous couple.
Thank you so much, for giving me another chance at love after going through the upset of a divorce in the past. Read More

After a 15 year marriage and a rather messy divorce, I eventually ventured into the world of Internet dating. After kissing a couple of frogs, dating a few toads, I eventually found my Shrek on this site. He is kind, considerate, warm and loving...I can see a positive future in all the other boxes I wanted ticked. Just keep at, persevere, be cautious but also have fun, be positive and optimistic and go on this great adventure. Good luck. Read More

Thank you again and again... Read More
Thank you, this was truly a great experience especially knowing there was an efficient 'support team". I will certainly refer all my single friends to this dating site!
Thank you again! Read More
I first got onto to this site 5 years ago and met some interesting people but never anything that had a future. I never gave up since I knew that timing was the key factor using this medium. I have met someone I truly feel is the one and although there has been some bumps along the way...the chemistry is undeniable and the future is promising. Thanks to this site...I doubt our paths would have ever crossed outside cyberspace. Read More
After numerous failed attempts on this site, I was about to give up.
However, a couple of months ago, I met an amazing woman on this site. After about a month and a half we met, and since then... We haven't looked back. I can with all honesty say, I've never felt this way about any previous woman in my life.
EVER!
She feels the same about me. All advice I can give is: Don't give up!
I didn't and ended up with one amazing woman! :D Read More
Chris, 2012-09-18

Thanx a lot for this site. I found a wonderful man. We have decided to take our relationship a step further, getting married. He adores me, he's God fearing, loves my girls and his girls are amazing. It took long but finally, I'm happy. There are a lot of chancers but there are true and real people on this site. Be careful out there, follow your gut and ladies "please don't be desperate". Above all, Pray for your partner and God will guide you to the right one. I found my Blessing, yours will come, be patient, be still yet don't compromise your values.

I was very hesitant to register on a dating website, but I decided to take the leap of faith and did it! Today I am grateful, because I have met the most wonderful man and we have been together for almost 3 months now. I can recommend this dating site to anybody who is looking for love. You might not find it, but you sure have to try :-) Take the leap of faith, you never know who is waiting on the other side! Read More
I joined your site for just over a month and never had much joy. I briefly chatted with a woman that I didn't think was really interested in me, it turned out that we have fallen so deeply in love with one another. Who would have imagined finding your soul mate on a date site, lol.... Thank you for your service :) Read More
Lidia, 2012-06-12
It sometimes seems like there is no decent way to meet a member of the opposite sex any more. Clubs and bars are just dicey and there are only so many people that you can meet through your friends. So, out of curiosity and a bit of frustration, I decided that it was time to try online dating. I started chatting to Vincent on this site... and after a year and a half we are happily engaged. This opportunity presented itself through an online platform that is often perceived with great scepticism. I have to disagree and say that just like any other channel that opens you up to meeting new people, this one works just as well... there are plenty of other people just like us who have taken the plunge and found themselves in a story with a happy ending.

Thanks to your site I found my match. We have been together for over a year and very much in love. Thanks again. Read More
I joined the site when I was at a stage in my life when I was wondering if I would ever meet anybody that I could be happy with and it would last longer than 3 months.

I had never thought this could work but I have found the most awesome person with whom I can share a wonderful future with! Thank you!! Read More

I joined the site after getting very frustrated by spending weekends alone. I had been alone for 15 months after my husband died and was ready to move on. After about a month I met a fantastic man - he fulfilled all my wishes. He had been on the site on and off for 5 years and was giving it one last try... He is absolutely the nicest man and we have been engaged for a few months and are planning on getting married soon... Read More

I was on the site for approx 18 months, met some wonderful people and some not so wonderful. I communicated with a gentleman for a month and we met on a Wednesday and have never been apart since. That was 5 weeks ago and in 5 more weeks we will be married. Yes, love at first sight does happen and when you meet your match you simply know he is the right one. Thank you so much. Read More
