Another success story for Sara Eden…..

Hi Mary Thank you for your email. I’m actually in a relationship with someone I met through Sara Eden at the end of last year and so I am no longer interested in meeting anyone. Shaun was planning on emailing his contact there so that you can add the number to your successful introduction numbers!!…

Valentine's day…

  Valentine’s Day was first associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished. In 18th-century England, it evolved into an occasion in which lovers expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards to each other. Happy Valentine’s day. Karen 

The happy and the sad.

Thank you David for recently sending us the lovely letter below. Dear Karen I write to thank you for the very warm reception which I received from Debbie when I visited your office on Saturday. Debbie was very helpful and encouraging to me as we discussed my current personal situation following the death of Anna…

Playing Hard-To-Get can really work!

When looking for love, playing hard-to-get may really work. Pretending not to be interested in a potential partner to increase your desirability is gaining some scientific support:  A new study suggests that if you want a serious relationship, it pays for men and women to be hard-to-get.According to the research, one potential benefit of playing…

The Splitting Sixties

By the time we hit our 60’s we are ready to be free. Free from mortages, work pressures and the responsibility of children. But sixtysomethings are also breaking free of their marriages as well. In fact, silver separations, as they are known have risen dramatically in the past few years. More than 11,500 over 60’s…

Sara Eden is 24 years old today!

  The 19th September 1988 is a day I will never forget, sitting at my computer waiting for the phone to ring, having placed adverts in all the local papers and glossy magazines. Eventually it did ring and I took our very first enquiry, an estate agent living in Camberley in his 40’s!   Friends,…

When couples first get together it’s understandably easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of romance and planning for the future, so it’s not unusual for us to find out months, sometimes years later that our efforts to introduce people have been successful. Imagine our delight therefore, when we received a lovely card and pile…

Well what a few weeks it’s been in London.  We’re only just getting over the excitement of the Jubilee celebrations, closely followed by the wonderful Olympic torch tour which went right past our window here in Windsor and then the unbelievable 2 weeks of the games themselves. It’s been inspiring, emotional, historic and exhausting – memories and emotions…

Strange concidence……

Last week I put an advert in a national newspaper for one of my Founder members looking for a lady based in Hampshire. As the replies started to come in I had a message to call a chap named Alan in response to the advert. I thought this a little strange as the advert was aimed at…

Friends and lovers

Just reading the results of some research completed recently in the US (where else!) which says that men’s friendships with the opposite sex are driven by sexual attraction, regardless of whether they are single. It found that women, however, are more likely to consider their friendships with men as platonic – and only hoped for…
