United Kingdom's Local Dating Service

Hi there

I'm Heather. I am 37 years old and live in Covent Garden.l

I like to walk in the countryside, go to the theatre and cinema, and I love nice food, whether cooking it or going out. I have a delightful dog, Chloe, who is very well behaved and cute.

I'm musical, love to dance, and exercise, and to enjoy the open air, and to get out and do all sorts of things. I'm full of energy and organise parties and things. I have an enquiring mind and like discussing interesting things.

I don't much like football, but I like rugby, and I like comedy, arts, books, theatre, cinema, art, food, wine, countryside, camping, walking, chatting.... etc

Warning: I'm on this website for a reason, that reason being to meet people and perhaps begin dating said person, I don't know why some people are shocked at the prospect of meeting someone else, it's how I met my first girlfriend, that is what this website was designed for.

I am an Unabashed Geek; heavily into Photography, comic books, video games, and board games. I'm not afraid to geek out but I can hide it as well if needed. I am actually here to meet a nice smart girl with possible geeky tendencies, I have done it before so I know it's possible. I also have a very odd sense of humor that I can blame my parents for.

I'm a fan of adventures and I like to go on them when I can, my idea of an adventure is participating in some fun one time event or exploring some cool new area/going to see a movie/trying something new I've never thought I would do (Like doing Tai Chi with Elderly Chinese Folks in track suits on Columbia campus). There is a lot to do out there in the world and I want to take part in some of it.

I'm not a big fan of drinking (I have tried alcohol thrice now and its gross) or drugs but I won't stop you or anything if you are.

PS: Don't worry if you don't have much geeky experience, I enjoy being a guide to the geek world, my favorite thing to do with many friends is to really try to think of something that they could connect with I don't just hand everyone the same thing.

I've never wanted to be a horse. Or a unicorn. I'm perfectly happy being me.

I like my life. I have a job that I love. I have friends who make me happy. I have dreams that make Martin Luther King look like an underachiever.

And I usually have some nice cheese in the fridge for a late night snack.

My name is Chris, I'm 28 and I live in the outer suburbs of London at the end of the Metropoltan line, so I have the dual benefits of quick access to one of the world's most vibrant and exciting cities plus the opportunity to walk on this wonderful green stuff called 'grass'.

I am a purveyor of intelligent conversation with hearty laughs, an interested listener who is affectionate with a quick wit, a fervent supporter of the cardigan.

Hi am outgoing kind of guy, i like to read a lot and do a lot of things that make me happy, i also believe in God,so am not a bad person. but am strong minded at times. i see myself as brave,upfront,ready for anything.
i dislike people who take the piss. i love my house and garage music but most times soul and rap is a most. and i love to watch movies to much.

New to the site so this section is to be continued.....stay tuned!

I am 48, half brazilian/french, living in London since October,looking
for friends, maybe some more.

Like to laugh, generally in the company of others as laughing alone can make you seem pretty mad after a while...I like to learn, to experience new people and places. Some of my happiest moments have when on a far away adventure. I spent a year in China which was a pretty different experience. I like to make art, usually painting and drawing but I also studied fine art printmaking. Like to read books, listen to music, watch films, enjoy the company of friends, go for long walks, attempt to salsa... Its a shame I have to work really.....

Not sure where to start.. American, Californian to be exact- leaving the San Francisco Bay Area for some adventure in England..

Lover of:
music (indie, 80s newwave, and electro/remixes mostly but i love everything)
microbrew
Miss Lily Allen :)
travel
european autocraft
Macs (computers)
Macs (Scots, and other Brits as well)
cooking, especially for good company.
smart wit (see:british humor)
sport (a very long list, but lets start with soccer, surfing, cricket, etc)...
respect/etiquette/tact
bbc

Not such a fan of:
stuckup bitches
people who dont use turning signals
hard drugs
republicans- sorry!
biggots
country music
lifetime channel
when bands do covers of GREAT songs, and kids think the newer band did the original- which usually is a botched cover.

First, sorry about the picture, its the only one I can find! Apparently it makes me look like an 8-bit game sprite.

When not pretending to be a lost Nintendo character, I'm a pharmacist that works in the NHS somewhere in deep dark south London. I'm currently working on a second degree with the OU in Computer Science and Mathematics. I view this as an attemt to play computer games for a living rather than my pathetic excuse for a job. In reality, it just means I'll get a better paid job telling pharmacists how to use computers properly (No, your birthday is not a good password, neither is your name)

I'm very shy, which is a problem when you are polyamourous. Kinda makes meeting new people very tricky, and I like new people. Its complicated, but I'm a kind and generous person, so its never an issue.

Other than that, I have a deep love for games of all varieties. I also love my food and drink, as well as cooking, I shall attempt to eat any food at least once. I have a passion for music, most types of music I can listen to, but I'm mainly a rock girl (but I also have large love of Weird Al Yankovic and other comedy music). I have a passion for movies, I'll watch anything once but my main love is SciFi and Far East movies. I also love Anime and Manga.

A particular favorite topic of mine is zombies. I have been reliably informed by various friends that I shall be rescued should zombies attack as I'm the only person in my group of friends with any medical knowledge. Its strangely comforting to know such things.

I'm also a bit of a geek I don't view this as an altogether bad thing, some men might, if you do you may want to stop reading now as I'm really not going to be your type at all.

I'm here to have fun..
Life is to short to think about what... 'if or should I'.
I love my job...and work hard...but I play even harder.
I love interesting people....people that have an open mind...
People that know what they want and get it...
I'm tall, dark and pretty fit... I enjoy my time down the gym, spending time out doors and photography.

Don't let today's disappointments cast a shadow on tomorrow's dreams.

I hate to write long winded boring descriptions. I guess sometimes we'll just have to leave it to fate. What's yours will be yours; and what's not won't.

Hello, My name is Benson from London, I am a cool and honest black guy, i am down to earth with sense of humour
I live and work in a town called Colchester, which is not too far from London city, The history says that Colchester is the British oldest recorded town and that Colchester was the capital of England during the Roman empire . which is hundredâ??s of years ago, I really like the town because is nice, cool and historic, will tell you more about myself if i hear from you.

I'm practical and organised and my day job's all about that too. I love to laugh and have fun with family and friends, but I also love having my quiet times too. At my age now I think I'm the happiest I've been in my life. I feel comfortable with myself, my family, friends and life in general. It's not easy at times but 'what the hey' whose is.

I am a 27 year old theatre technician living in London. I enjoy going out for meals and drinks, socialising with friends, theatre, cinema and museums.

I am a little shy at first but very outgoing once you get to know me.

Im a fairly serious person with a wicked, sarcastic and droll sense of humour, who is totally lateral with life~!! I choose my friends very carefully, and give out my trust only occassionally. Im very loyal to my friends , as i learnt the hard way that loyalty is a two way street. Very well read and educated.Like to learn about new things, and take pride in the fact i keep up on things I can be just as happy on my own for a week as i can be spending that week with someone and not seeing a single other person.I have spent far too long spending time on a business, and put that ahead of myself: its now time for me to put my happiness before my business. Want to travel a lot more, and would really like to meet someone who would be happy sailing round the world , or driving across america.

Have done lots of sports, rowing, martial arts, boxing but struggling to find the motivation to go to the gym lately. Really want to learn to fly so think thats the next thing on the list; also tempted to do a degree in clinical hypnosis purely out of interest.

Never been good at putting on paper what i really think so not entirely sure what ill find on here in response to my fairly serious answers!!!

hi there, thought i'd try this internet dating things as everyone seems to be talking about it. i think i'm a pretty great guy but maybe just really picky or have impossibly high standards, i don't know, but still single. o well, actually i can't complain, have my own place and wouldn't have it any other way.

I am Michele, I have moved to London from Rome for work. I have been focused on my career in the last few years and I feel like you would like to balance my life a little more. That's why I am on this website.
I have been lucky to travel to about 90 countries around the world and I have learned to appreciate different cultures. I enjoy classical music, salsa dancing, playing squash, reading, hiking and outdoors.

real estate agent in tenerife, the tropical vacation island where the sun always shines and the sea is warm

I'm very intelligent and have a weird sense of humour, although people seem to like it. I love music (indie, rock, bits of jazz / classical / folk / dance), books (scifi, fantasy and modern fiction) and comedy (British TV and standup).

I've always been badly behaved and, although the pace is decreasing, I still drink too much, swear too much, get spannered, stay up too late, enjoy a spot of deviant sex and generally run round having a fine old time. I have a fairly girly side to counterbalance the party animal: I like fluffy animals, clothes shopping, flowers, chocolate and champagne.

I've travelled quite widely in SE Asia, a fair bit in Europe, I've lived briefly in the US and for a few years in Australia, which was fab. I'm pretty settled in London for now but I'm not sure what the future holds.

Anyway, ultimately I'm looking for my true love (erm, I think). But in the meantime I'm always happy to meet new people to play with and have some fun times. But I'm not going to settle for second best. I have a lovely life, loads of amazing friends and a job I love. Which is more than enough to be going on with. Of course, if I do meet the right person then we're going to make Romeo and Juliet look like a couple of adolescent twats. Which, to be fair, they were...

I am yet to get around to working out what I should say about myself here................................................................................................................

Hmm,noting much to say about myself. I am an easy going young man that love surprises and experiencing new things in this world. I love meeting friend, traveling..Lol i guess traveling is part of my work. I appreciate my own space from time to time but also appreciate someone being there for me. I am looking for a self confident, independent woman with her own views on life. Spontaneous. I want to learn and experience new things in life and want someone to share these with. she needs to be caring loving and honest.

Hi, I'm Sharon, a 30 year old Australian who's been living and working in London for 3 years. Before the UK I lived in Canada for a year and was in Japan teaching English the year before that. I love travelling and seeing new places but am glad to have a base to come home to after being out and about.

I enjoy going to the gym, playing netball and touch rugby. I also like playing sports in the park while drinking some wine so I'm hoping for a good summer this year :).

Hi

I'm Dannie, 18 from London. I'm half Portugese and English and fluent in both Languages.

I'm looking for a sweet guy who mom will like. Haha, that's probably got you running already! Dating sites are new to me so be nice :)

Well. I'm 22, have just moved to London and LOVE it. Fantastic music, lots of my friends and a job that i love - can't argue with that. How about you?

Hiya peeps... Well tbh I only joined this site because my gf <<cyberdyke>> is on here so I thought I'd pop over and see what it's about...

I live in London with my gf (fiance now) and I'm currently working as an escort, AKA school run attendant.

I am also a bit of an adrenaline junkie and will try that's bound to give me a bit of a buzz ;P I've done rock climbing, kayaking, caving, gorge walking, and recently me and my fiance have taken to zorbing, we've already done this a few times and have decided that we want a zorbing wedding lol.

Me and my fiance recently got a dog, we got a staffordshire bull terrier from Battersea dogs and cats home so a lot of my time at the moment is spent, walking, feeding, cleaning up after and training the dog.

Hi! i love meeting new people when i have the time,working hard and playing harder im easy to get on with and very down to earth,my interests include,playing pool,golf,photography,music and horror films,i'm a bit new to all this so go easy on me lol.

A small cute package of geekyness and intelligence :). Currently happily in a relationship, am looking for another cute girl for friendship and possibly more.....

When not being small, cute and geeky ( :) ), I enjoy spending my time trying to force my bf to do really socially cutting-edge things like going to the cinema and generally not doing a good impression of a couch potato. While I definitely enjoy going out (cinema, dancing, hitting a spa etc), I often feel a little vulnerable in large crowds for some reason. I very much prefer to keep things in a small circle if possible.

When not out and about enjoying the delights that London has to offer, I enjoy staying at home, either singing (SingStar on the PS3 is my favourite for that at the moment) or reading, either something geeky to do with programming, potentially useful for my future about the world of finance, or a little anime if I fancy a bit of relaxation.

Otherwise, I'm currently learning how to program iPhone apps, since I figure that's as good a way to make money as anything while at uni. That said, I'm also in the process of doing my placement year as part of my uni course - I'm working as a quantitative analyst / IT developer at a bank in the City, which is very interesting. It's certainly an improvement on sitting in lectures and seminars...not entirely sure I want to go back to that next year (not that I've got much of a choice though :( ).

Oh, and I'm not English - any guesses as to where I'm from :)?

I like bikes. I work as a cycle courier, but have had proper jobs!
I've just taught myself how to make bike frames.
I'm easy-going, have a dry sense of humour and a thirst for knowledge.
Living in East London, I like to get into the countryside when possible. I also like food, history, music and nature, but I don't watch TV.
I'm 6'4".

I guess that does sum it up. Like all things creative. I am unconventional, and often do the unexpected. You can't put me in a box.

Was it Kierkegaard or perhaps Dick van Patton that said, "If you label me you negate me"?

I'm on twitter, which is almost certainly deeply unfashionable. Try and find me! It's not very hard.

I live in SW17, South London with three friends. I enjoy the same things as everyone else - reading, films, music, rimming. I am excellent though.

Hey ladies.. I am Nick. I am new to this kinda stuf and have no idea what to write in this tiny box!! ermm i ll give it a shot tho.. I am 6ft 2 .. athletic body black hair brown eyes. living in London.. Born and Bred in Manchester tho but havent got the accent lol!. I work as a trainee doctor!.

Nick! xx

hahahah..waaaaaaatttttttt...oooooh pleaaase!

Not really sure about life and what it means but I'm guessing we are here for a good time and not a long time.

I love meeting people with new ideas and powerful souls. A poet once asked me what excited me. I answered 'busting mythologies' and I guess that's still true, but now I'm far more into spiritual and emotional values too. I like to laugh, and I don't take myself too seriously. This is the happiest I've ever been and I want to share that and exchange provocative thoughts with new friends. I like Alfred Jarry, Fortean Times, illusions, Anais Nin, Annie Sprinkle, earth mysteries, Weimar Berlin, Eric Kroll, essential oils, stone circles, Macintosh computers, Mae West, magic, CSI, The Sopranos, Remote Viewing, screen vamps, spiritual healing, Surrealism, the Tarot, Theda Bara, writing novels, wearing Yves Saint Laurent.

Hey everyone my name is Alex and I live in London. I am a bubbly, confident character but this can often be seen as arrogance but I promise you im only a little :P . Friends mean alot to me but so does finding the right girl too. Im planning to go around the world one day and Ideally with the girl of my dreams :D I would consider myself intelligent but I can often be lacking in the common sense department lol. People like my bluntness but sometimes people think I am rude, honesty is the best policy in my book though lol.

Im on here now because Ive just had a major breakup with a someone I was in a long term relationship with (4+ years) and looking to get some confidence back in my life. My friend <<tomthebaz>> suggested I get myself on here as here but Im still a little sceptical about it all. Oh well anything is worth a try and if it means I meet nice people im up for it.

Ummm im not quite sure what else to say apart from describe myself a bit more, im 6ft 3 and have a slim build. I have blue eyes and brown hair but you can probably tell from my pictures lol Anyway I welcome any messages even if you just wanna chat ^_^ hope to get a reply soon!

I see the world as a large and rather amusing soap opera, with occasionally dark undertones.

I am a deep thinking and caring person. Someone who values other peoples space and opinions, and am a listener.

I somewhat wander through life, neither open or closed to any possibilities.

I go with the flow, am generally relaxed and indulge heavily in my musings.

I'm based in central London, work across Europe and South Africa. Enjoy opera and theatre, museums and galleries, very good restaurants and wine, reading, and London history.

Im the type of guy who loves life, wants to see whats out there, and have fun , i love being spontaneous Im really just a out going person. I really just want to be cool with everybody and meet new people.

I live in Islington, London, I'm interested in computers, I like hard rock/metal (even cheesy 80's stuff), I like to go to the movies whenever there's something worth watching, I'm quite into digital photography and love travelling (over the past 5 years I've been to New York twice, Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Tokyo, Kyoto, Barcelona, Rome, Berlin & Reykjavik and plan to go to all other major US cities at some point in the future). I'm not a sports fan as I never really had much interest in watching footie and other sports (don't mind playing them though).

Am currently in uni and as a student am perfecting my skills of procrastination. In fact I made an account here purely because I was continually doing quizzes instead of school assignments during the witching hours of the morning, and okcupid kept pestering me in an attempt to catalogue my ridiculous number of quiz results.

I like teacups, half-finished knitting, biohazard tape, watching people dance, red shoes, the smell of candle smoke, basking in the sun, and being barefoot on grass.

I dont like fake pockets, velour tracksuits, mushy peas, people who are rude for no reason, broken washing machines and waking up to dark mornings.

I am a professional guy living in London - I am told I am intelligent, articulate, laid back and chilled with a social conscience - although maybe I shouldn't believe everything I am told.

I am a social animal - in that I enjoy talking to and meeting new people. The buzz and excitement of new people and new ideas is amazing - although I do also like to chill with a few close mates.

I have lots of passions in life - and enjoy deep discussions about life, the universe, the state of the world and am active in social justice movements.

My other great passions are travel - I love exploring new places and love being near the sea. You can usually find me coming back from somewhere or planning to go off on another trip.

I also love music and canty imagine a world without it - its one of my passions and i have eclectic tastes. I enjoy everything from chilled out tunes to raving to house and drum n bass.

I've always thought I'd end up a writer. As it is, I'm a technology middle manager with a humanist angle and a penchant for wordplay. I'm very well-read, and wish I were better versed in film and art, like the proper stuff that people in berets mumble over. Mind you that doesn't stop me having an opinion on either, or mocking said people when they're being absurd. I'm also a bit mental about music, in a very broad and inconsistent way. I know enough to hold down a very very long and interesting conversation over a bottle of wine (red). Just don't ask me anything about X-Factor, or Big Brother or Jordan... I'll press eject and parachute to safety.

I consider myself an athlete. For shame. I swim and cycle regularly, climbing curtailed by tendonitis, and do things like yoga and pilates classes. Playing football on Sundays fills out the repertoire and is one of the things I've learned to love about London.

I am from Puerto Rico. I dislike the cold, and cold people. The right person might persuade me to try snowboarding or skiing for the first time, ever. To further stereotypes of Latin people, I like coffee and rum, rice and beans, a cool drink on a hot beach, a racy dance in a dark nightclub. I have a foul mouth rarely censored, and a terribly dirty mind.

I like street art, architecture, the absurd, mexican wrestlers, Tom Waits. I like a good suit and nice shoes, and a ragged t-shirt and Chuck Taylors in equal measure. I'm just vain enough to make both look good.

I might be a better cook than you, and would like to prove it.

To the casual eye, I appear a hipster.

Finally, I'm a hopeless romantic. And even though you think you've seen it all before, it's fair to say you've probably never met someone quite like me.
