Kevin and Linda

Kevin had numerous failed relationships and began to feel depressed at finding a compatible partner. One day while surfing the net he came across www.worlddatingclub.com . He thought he'd "try it for laugh" and not really take it seriously. After spending a few minutes searching the site he spotted a profile of someone called Linda and was 'intrigued' as he says.

After a few minutes thinking about it, he emailed Linda with some brief details about himself. To his surprise he got a reply with a few hours. Over the next week or so the swapped many emails about things they liked and what they didn't like as well . Kevin was surprised at how like-minded they both were. After more emails they exchanged phone numbers.

The first time they spoke was 'amazing' as Kevin calls it. The excitement and thrill was overwhelming he says. They talked for hours and hours.

Their first date soon followed and was in the capital city of England, London. Interestingly, they hadn't swapped pictures because neither had a scanner or digital camera or access to one so they had to rely on their own personal descriptions, which added to the excitement.

When they finally met they were very nervous. As Kevin says, "we were so shocked at seeing each other, we just didn't know what to say" . But the initial shock wore off and they were soon talking and joking with each other. They spent the whole day wondering around London. At the end of the date they both kissed and hugged, and Kevin for the first time in many years felt that he had found not just a partner but a soul mate as well.

Within six months Kevin had proposed to Linda and she willingly accepted. And as Kevin says, "the rest is history"!

As Kevin points out, if wasn't for the dating web site, the likelihood of them meeting would of been very, very small!
