NoticeboardWelcome! On this page we offer you a chance to take a peek inside the world of a professional introduction/dating agency – where we share tips and helpful hints about the world of dating. Why not spend a few minutes reading this page – you will certainly learn something you didn’t know before! See also: a true story » The best job in the world
I have worked for professional dating or introduction agencies for over thirty years and I can’t imagine ever wanting to do anything else. All the happy clients, the fun we have in the office, even the problems, I wouldn’t miss them for the world. So – what is so fantastic about working for a dating agency? I think all my team would agree that it’s mainly the laughs we have in the office and the fact that the clients are so interesting and diverse. From the moment someone makes their first approach to our agency to ask about our service, a relationship begins between the client and us. Of course not everyone who calls us is suitable to join. Sometimes we just know that we would not be able to match them with any of our clients but most people are great – good fun, intelligent and interesting. So – what is a typical day in the office? After a few minutes chat about our personal lives and a cup of coffee for everyone, we start work at 9.15am – and some of us are still working 12 hours later, seven days a week. The phones are ringing, voicemail messages have to be listened to and e-mails are flying in. Three people are visiting the offices, two to be interviewed and one to bring in her identification and to have her photograph taken. It is going to be another busy day! Richard has called to let us know that he and Sarah have been seeing each other for two months and he wants to freeze his membership to see how things go. Anne wants us to know that John is better looking in the flesh than on his photo. Grace says that Robert is charming but not the man for her – she would like another introduction. Sally calls to say she and Philip are no longer an item. She doesn’t want to meet anyone else for a while until she gets over her disappointment and Anita wants to know why we haven’t sent her a match this month. Ben and Anna have just had a baby. Felicity calls us from London. Her friend who lives near Manchester met her partner through us so can we do the same for her? Peter, 64, a widower from Cambridge says he wants to meet a widow if possible, someone feminine and attractive. Mia, a gorgeous girl from Surrey wants to get married and start a family with a lovely man. If these potential clients do become members we can’t guarantee that they will meet their perfect partner but we know we will do everything we can to try to make it happen for them. My job revolves around explaining to people the process how we would go about finding them someone compatible. The most difficult part is explaining to everyone that joining an agency is not like going to a shop. Sadly, gorgeous men don’t grow on trees and beautiful women don’t hang around in bars but most of our clients are intelligent, professional people and they understand that. I always say “If you are looking for lots of introductions, don’t join us”. We are an agency for people who are selective about the people they meet – we believe in quality over quantity and for that reason most people do like the people we introduce them to …………… of course they don’t all slope off into the sunset – but they often stay friends at the very least. Carol, one of my team is laughing – one of our clients has had her in stitches, not an uncommon occurrence. So, if you want to know what is the best job in the world, I would say it would be working for a successful, professional introduction agency – it is a job like no other!  Dating Tip – Smile a Lot
Smile make eye contact,Invite a smile from your date Listen more than you speak Enjoy the moment Admire – we all like compliments Look your best Oggle others – DON’T! Touch – your bare arm, your wrist, your ear …. try it ….it works. The subject of comb-overs You don’t have to be drop dead gorgeous to join Attractive Partners BUT – MEN – don’t even think of joining if you comb your hair over a bald patch and ‘fix’ it with spray…………..ugh! Someone to stay young with
Don’t appear to be too eager! When you first meet someone who may turn out to be your ideal partner, keep the conversation light. Whatever you do don’t talk about future plans – “Hello Sandra – before I order the drinks do you mind if I ask you – do you want children?” is NOT a good idea! Looking for a New Partner – Try a Little Humour? This wonderful letter from Nigel Fortnum appeared in the Daily Mail. With his permission we have added it to our noticeboard ………… read, smile and learn – everything he says is perfectly true. ‘My late wife ran a successful introduction agency for several years and I know that men and women can be equally problematic. Women invariably stated ‘my friends all tell me I look far younger than I am’ and fibbed about their age. Many would ask to meet men younger than themselves, though few men would want to meet an older woman. They specify ‘must be tall, high income, professional type, vegetarian’ etc. We explained that the more restrictions you applied, the less likely you were to meet someone, too often to no avail. It amazed us that many handed out their landline phone numbers, met in the evenings when lunchtimes were safer, did not inform a friend where they were going and forgot their mobile phone. Some even invited men back home after a first date. Men were as bad, but in different ways. Their predominant conditions were: they must be younger, slim, I must see a photo (absurd, because a professional photo can make a plain person look great and a bad photo make a lovely person look terrible). Many would not want to meet a lady if children still lived at home. On the first date, men usually left a lot to be desired. Most had forgotten old-fashioned manners and talked about themselves too much, often about their troubles. There was one who tactfully explained to a lady he’d just met that his previous wife was Miss Brighton and that any woman he met would have to live up to that. That date lasted about two nano-seconds. Our advice to both genders was: lessen your restrictions. Leave emotional baggage at home. Do not try to find a clone of your last spouse. Listen more, talk less and – very important – make each other laugh! Oh, and men, smarten up, remember manners and be a little romantic. One problem we always had was that there were far more women in the 50-plus age group than men. But to Esther Rantzen and Sue Bamford (Letters), I’d just say’ there are many decent men ‘out there’, but do not be intimidating, lower your expectations a little and be open-minded. I once heard a lady say ‘All the good ones are either gay or married’. Oh no they’re not! …………..’ Nothing ruins romance like a dirty house… Life is looking good! You’ve joined Attractive Partners, met someone you really like and been on a few dates. Everything is going swimmingly! Now, you want to invite your date back to your home? Do you look around your home, smile contentedly and think: “Hmm ……. it sure looks welcoming. The sofa’s been vacuumed and the cushions plumped up. The table’s freshly polished. The bathroom and kitchen sparkling clean. The sitting room smells of freshly cut flowers and everything is perfect.” First impressions really count and you want your date to be impressed with the way you care for your home….. because you know it says a lot about you! No? Admit it – you’re a really busy person and the housework has taken a backseat lately. There’s a thick layer of dust everywhere, the windows need cleaning and everything seems to have dissolved into disorganised clutter! You can find nothing easily and have to spend ages hunting for your keys, purse, wallet………. You realise grimly that before you can invite your date back you’ll need to roll up you sleeves and get cleaning. Deep joy! You sink back wearily and wonder how and when you’re going to find the time to blitz the place. “Hmm”… you’re thinking…. “some hope or no hope!” But there is hope! Let us make your home sparkle and make it a place you can be proud of! Let us take the hassle out of your housework and leave you a home that will impress your date. ‘Myhome Residential Cleaning’ provides a premier professional home cleaning service tailored to your individual requirements. One of our customers recently began a new relationship with a man she was really keen on. She wanted to ask him over for a romantic meal but the only problem was that his place was immaculate and she quickly realised that he would not be impressed with her home! Luckily, she spotted a Myhome van buzzing down the street and called us in for an in-depth assessment and quotation. In just one day our team transformed her home with top to bottom Spring Clean. When we left, it shone! It sparkled! It looked fantastic! She now had a home she could really be proud of and couldn’t wait to ask her new man around and concentrate on enjoying their time together! If you live in the Solihull or South Warwickshire areas there is hope for you, too. We can make your home sparkle with a Spring Cleans and Regular Cleans, so you can stop worrying about cleaning your home and start enjoying it with your new date. Call us today on 01789 413975 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 01789 413975 end_of_the_skype_highlighting for a chat about how we can make your home impressive! Or visit our website www.myhome.com/cleaning Life is too short to wake up with regrets, So love the people who treat you right and Forget about the ones who don’t. Believe in ‘everything’ happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. It may be the best decision you ever make. If it changes your life – let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worthwhile Something for animal lovers
I have had a great affinity for animals as long ago as I can remember. My passion has stayed with me throughout my life. In 2004 my fascination led me to attend a Telepathic Animal Communication course where I discovered that I had a natural ability to be able to communicate telepathically with animals. How it works I am clairaudient ( I physically hear the voice of the animal talking to me) and clairvoyant ( I physically see pictures, scenes, visions and objects that the animal shows me). I work with a photograph of the animal which needs to show their eyes clearly as this helps me connect more easily. This is your chance to talk to your pet. Have you ever wondered? • Why your pet does certain things • What makes them happy • What makes them sad • What do they enjoy doing Typically I ask you, the Pet’s guardian, to give me 3 or 4 questions you want me to ask your pet. Call me on 08701 682442 or email me on gail@talktoyourpet.co.uk I connect with the animal and write down what they say and give this to you. It’s fun, it’s inexpensive and it could make you and your pet happier. My desire is to enable you and your pet to have the most loving and enjoyable life together. Best Wishes Gail Why are Men Happier than Women? This was sent to us by a client – we hope you laugh as much as we did Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another petrol station toilet because this one is just too icky. You don’t have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress £2000. Tux rental-£100. People never stare at your chest when you’re talking to them. The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected. New shoes don’t cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day holiday requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend. Your underwear is £4.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You almost never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. Everything on your face stays its original colour. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck. You can play with toys all your life. One wallet and one pair of shoes one colour for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. You can ‘do’ your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a moustache.. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes…………… No wonder men are happier! A few anusing differences between Men and Women NICKNAMES If Laura, Kate and Sarah go out for lunch, they will call each other Laura, Kate and Sarah. If Mike, Dave and John go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla and Four-eyes. EATING OUT When the bill arrives, Mike, Dave and John will each throw in £20, even though it’s only for £32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back. When the girls get their bill, out come the pocket calculators. MONEY A man will pay £2 for a £1 item he needs. A woman will pay £1 for a £2 item that she doesn’t need but it’s on sale. BATHROOMS A man has six items in his bathroom: toothbrush and toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel from M&S. The average number of items in the typical woman’s bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify more than 20 of these items. ARGUMENTS A woman has the last word in any argument. Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument. CATS Women love cats. Men say they love cats, but when women aren’t looking, men kick cats. FUTURE A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.. A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife. SUCCESS A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man. MARRIAGE A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t. A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change, but she does. DRESSING UP A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the bins, answer the phone, read a book, and get the post. A man will dress up for weddings and funerals. NATURAL Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed. Women somehow deteriorate during the night. OFFSPRING Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favourite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams. A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY A married man should forget his mistakes. There’s no use in two people remembering the same thing.

Our members are either single, widowed or divorced and some have been separated for some time. We are proud of the clients we attract and of the successes our introduction agency has achieved. . If you are looking for a discreet professional service you can trust then there are various avenues you can take but you are much safer joining a personal introduction agency or dating agency like Attractive Partners.

However we are pleased to say that many of our overseas clients are extremely happy with our service saying it is particularly difficult for them to find a partner living where they do. It is true to say that almost all our members are solvent and many of them are very affluent indeed. All our members are attractive to the opposite sex.

Please don’t go on about past relationships your new date will not want to hear about it. In fact, don’t go on about anything!No one likes a moaner. Are you a single parent? Are you frustrated with the lack of holidays for single parent families offered by travel agents? Do you find it daunting to travel on your own with the kids? Feel isolated in a hotel full of couples and ‘perfect’ families? Well, if you feel too old to go on holiday with your parents or don’t want to tag along with married friends, this does not leave you with too many options…until now! The frustration of one single mum over the lack of holidays on offer for one parent families led to the launch of Single Parents on Holiday in 2005. The company offers holidays exclusively for single parents and their children, and accompanies groups of single parent families to beautiful locations in Austria, Greece and other European destinations. Single Parents on Holiday know what parents and their children want: travelling in a group means the kids are immediately amongst new friends of a similar age, and it is easy to keep an eye on them and help each other out if you are travelling together. The adults get to enjoy great company throughout the day and evening, while we offer a varied programme of activities, babysitting facilities and much more. Single Parents on Holiday take great care and effort to select the right hotels and destinations. We use the most family-friendly hotels with a wide range of facilities and activities to suit younger children, teenagers and parents, ensuring that all involved have a fantastic time. Wouldn’t a 4-star hotel surrounded by stunning subtropical gardens with its own sandy beach be the perfect place to unwind and be spoilt? If you want to enjoy an autumn break in the Greek sun, take advantage of our special offer: 10% off all bookings for the October half-term break (21-28.10.2006).

The results showed that men seem to be attracted equally to blondes and brunettes. Red headed girls got slightly less votes – but that is probably because there are fewer of them. Kids comments on love The following amusing observations were sent to us – we hope you enjoy reading what children think about love and romance. more » HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHOM YOU WANT TO MARRY? Alfie, age 10 You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the Kirsty, age 10 No person really decides before they grow up whom they’re going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you’re stuck with. WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED? Tilly, age 10 Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then. Freddie, age 6 (very wise for his age) No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married. HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED? Oliver, age 8 You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids. WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MUM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON? Molly age 8 Both don’t want any more kids. WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE? Sarah, age 8 (isn’t she a treasure) Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough. Timothy, age 10 On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date. WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR? Craig, age 9 I’d run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns. WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE? Jessica, age 7 when they’re rich. David, age 7 The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn’t want to mess with that. Harley, age 8 the rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It’s the right thing to do. IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED? Annie age 9 (bless) It’s better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them. HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN’T GET MARRIED? Christopher, age 8 There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn’t there? And the #1 Favourite is…….. HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK? Ross, age 10 Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a truck. Smile Smile when you are talking on the phone – you will sound a whole lot happier, more interesting and more attractive to the person on the other end of the phone and who knows it could be your next potential partner and change your life for ever. Don’t be too picky Most introduction and dating agencies agree. …some people are just too inflexible. What a shame – they might be missing their perfect match because he or she is just a year older or an inch shorter than they have asked for. The staff are there to help you – listen to their professional advice and consider taking it…………you would be surprised how often it pays off! What are you looking for in a partner? Before you answer – think carefully. It is worth remembering that in life we are often attracted and suited to people who do not meet all our preconceived ideas. How often have you fallen in love at first sight? With your past relationships did you even like each other immediately? Was your relationship based on attraction alone and if it failed, was that the reason? Have you ever grown to love someone and then noticed how attractive you find them? We are not suggesting that you will grow to love every one you meet but we think you should give each introduction a chance. Try not to make an immediate decision based solely on your first impression. Of course there are people with whom you know there could never be a rapport – but in our experience the more open minded a person is, the more likely they are to find a satisfying and lasting relationship. Don’t appear desperate
more » One or two is quite enough. busy people may be away on business or on holiday – don’t expect them to call you back immediately and whatever you do don’t give them a hard time when they do call… …yes, it’s hard to believe, but some people do exactly that – hardly a promising start to a relationship… Moaning Minnies are not attractive One of the worst turn offs for anyone is to listen to someone else’s gripes. No matter what it is you are dissatisfied with, remember to keep it to yourself – no one likes a moaner and although the listener may appear to agree with everything you say, they will rarely ask you for a second date……………….Be upbeat and positive this will help you give a good impression and make you more interesting..

I was particularly unhappy with the dark circles under my eyes and loose skin on my neck. Put on your favourite music …..when you are phoning someone for the first time why not put on your favourite CD and have it playing in the background.

If you are looking for someone really special who meets all (or most of all) requirements, then joining a specialist Introduction Agency such as Attractive Partners is an excellent way to proceed. They will listen carefully to your requirements and introduce you only to other members whose requirements match your own. If you are genuinely looking for a long term relationship then joining a quality Introduction Agency will be a better option than a dating agency which is mainly for people looking for short term relationships. Introduction Agencies really are the best option for people of quality and the Introduction Agency of choice for those who are unattached but not unattractive is Attractive Partners. Dating agencies have their place too. If you want to meet lots of people and are prepared to kiss a lot of frogs then perhaps a dating agency is the best option for you. Professional introduction agencies like attractive Partners aim to take the hard work out of dating and do everything possible to ensure that each introduction has a good chance of turning into a very special relationship. Whether you choose to join a professional, up-market introduction agency such as Attractive Partners or an ordinary dating agency, you can be sure that you are doing something positive about changing your life and that has to be better than sitting on your bottom and waiting for a better life to come to you. Sceptical about joining a dating agency? …………… so was Jill from Leicestershire. ‘I had always been very sceptical about dating agencies and would never have considered joining one until Karen recommended your agency to me. She assured me that your agency was professional and your staff very helpful and friendly. After only three introductions through your service she met a partner with whom she is now settled and very happy with. I am hopeful that I will be as successful as she has been.’ Although hoping for a good result following the success of Karen, Jill was still sceptical about agencies and was thrilled with the service we provided her with. After being a member for 6 months Jill, from Oadby, met Phil, a local businessman from Hinckley. They arranged to meet for dinner in Leicester and had ‘a wonderful evening’. They discovered that they actually had mutual friends and much in common. Very soon they had introduced one another to their friends and family and are still together 8 months later. Another sceptic was Janet from Aberdeen. ‘I was sceptical about joining yet another agency but you seemed to offer exactly what I had been looking for. It turned out to be a great decision when you found me the man that I had been looking for. Thank you so much for such a great service.’ Is lack of time stopping you meeting people? ……..many of our members join for this reason. If you have a busy job and lack time to socialize you may find it hard to meet partners. We can help. We offer quality introductions to attractive, educated and professional partners. Many of our members with busy schedules have been successful in finding a partner with us. Still not convinced? You may like to read some success stories for yourself…… Sandra owns a busy shop in Newquay. During the summer months she has little time for socializing, so thought she would try a dating agency. She trawled through and called many different agencies and decided to join Attractive Partners ‘because of your approachable and friendly manner’. We have recently introduced her to Paul who also runs his own successful business in Helston. As far as we are aware they are still seeing each other. We introduced Sally, a self employed magazine illustrator, who lives in Weymouth to Simon, a property developer from a village very close to Sally, a few months ago. Both had only joined an agency because they were too busy to ‘go out and socialize’. Simon called to say ‘please put both our files on hold, as we are enjoying a very happy relationship, thanks to your agency.’ We obviously had to have permission personally from Sally. So we called her to ask how things were going with Simon. She said ‘thank you so much, he is just great, we have lots in common and he adores Smiffy (Smiffy is Sally’s cocker spaniel!). Paul and Carol both joined our introduction agency as they were too busy with their careers to meet people through socializing. Their busy schedules also meant that they were unable to travel far to meet a partner so were delighted when they received details of a match in Essex. After just one telephone conversation Carol told us that ‘we immediately hit it off and it felt as though we had known each other for years! I cannot wait until our date tomorrow evening, I will let you know how it goes.’ After two weeks both Paul and Carol got in touch with us requesting not to be sent any more introductions as they were getting on so well. It is now 5 months later and we have not heard from them requesting any further introductions so we assume they are still happy together. Joined dating agencies in the past with no success? …………..Don’t give up! We may be able to help you even if other dating agencies haven’t. We have had many members who had been unsuccessful with other agencies who found success with us. Our clients are selective about the people they meet so we work on a quality rather than quantity basis. Some introduction agencies may give you more introductions than we will but we try to ensure that every match has the potential to be successful which is why our feedback is so good. We believe it is better to introduce you to fewer very well suited partners. Here are a few success stories. Felicity found our approach was the one that worked! ‘After being a member of numerous dating / introduction agencies, all of which sent me completely unsuitable matches, it was a breath of fresh air to receive details of a man who sounded to be just what I was looking for. Brian met all of my requirements that I discussed with your staff and we also shared many interests. When we met sparks immediately flew! We have now had 3 dates and things are going wonderfully well. I had lost faith in this approach to meeting a partner but you have restored this faith, thank you.’ 5 months later Felicity and Brian, from a town near Clydebank, are still seeing each other. Sandra told us ‘when I enquired, your agency seemed to offer something which I had not experienced from other introduction agencies, a professional and upmarket service providing only high quality introductions and no false guarantees. This is exactly what I got and after just two introductions from you met Greg! What can I say, you were spot on! We could not be better suited if I had picked him out of a catalogue!’ Sandra and Greg are getting married this summer! Louise, a sales executive from Swansea joined Attractive Partners after a friend had success with us. Louise had been a member of 3 dating agencies previously and not only was she still single but had not had a single quality introduction from any of the agencies. So when a friend told her of the quality introductions she has received from our bespoke service Louise joined us and was introduced to Michael, a businessman from a village just outside Neath. ‘Michael is perfect for me, you could not have introduced me to anyone who was better suited. At last an agency who can get it right! Well done!’ Need a professional introduction agency? that will introduce you to attractive, educated and professional partners? …………..Look no further!! Steven, a lawyer from Carlisle, wanted to join an upmarket dating agency to meet a professional and educated lady similar to himself and said that ‘attractive partners offered a quality service that could provide just this.’ After being a member for just 5 weeks he was introduced to Linda, a financial advisor also from Carlisle. It has now been 7 months since they were introduced and ‘its going really well, neither of us imagined we would find such happiness through a dating agency, we have recommended attractive partners to our single friends!’ Adam, a lawyer from Wrexham, was fed up being alone and after a series of bad blind dates arranged by friends he decided that a new approach was needed. ‘I wanted a professional agency that could offer me high quality introductions to ladies similar to myself, from a similar background, well educated and of course single! When I received details of Elaine, I thought that on paper she seemed to be a good match for me but when we met it was better! We immediately felt comfortable with each other and hit it off within minutes. Since then things have just got better. We are spending every possible minute together.’ When Katherine decided to join an introduction / dating agency she was looking for a service suitable for a professional single lady. ‘I wanted to ensure that the type of men I would be meeting would be on my wavelength and have a similar background and lifestyle to myself. Attractive partners offered me just this and joining you proved to be a very good decision.’ We introduced Katherine, from Preston, to Jeremy who lives in a village nearby and they immediately hit it off. They seemed an ideal match. They were both from very similar educational backgrounds, well travelled and interested in the arts. Soon after we sent out the introduction we heard from Katherine and Jeremy to say how well they were already getting on and they did not require any further introductions at the moment. 6 months later we received a letter from Katherine ‘We have just returned from a wonderful 3 week holiday in Sri Lanka. We are getting on extremely well and have so much in common, thank you very much for introducing us.’ Here’s the views of fifty successful, professional men on why they chose to join Attractive Partners as opposed to other professional introduction / dating agencies Here are some of the answers we received :- ‘I had tried other introduction agencies, but was looking for something more upmarket and safe, so I came to Attractive Partners.’ ‘I am well educated, independent and financially sound, and was looking for a lady with similar attributes. Thank you for introducing me to Helen.’ ‘I was very sceptical about dating /introduction agencies, but everyone at your agency came across as very professional and discerning when I first made enquiries. You have all proved to be just that and I have met some gorgeous women. Thank you.’ ‘Some of my friends have joined introduction agencies in the past. It may sound shallow but I liked your name and I wanted to meet somebody attractive!’ ‘A friend of mine roped me into it because she is a member and said that she had met some very entertaining, well-educated, affluent and sophisticated men. It was a combination of her enthusiasm and the very helpful staff that convinced me to join. I don’t think I would have done it without both of those but am now really looking forward to my first meeting with Felicity, the gorgeous, classy sounding lady who I spoke to on the telephone for the first time yesterday.’ ‘For me there is still a stigma attached to the idea of having to use introduction agencies. But having just been involved in a serious accident, it was like lifes wake up call and I didn’t want to leave finding a partner to chance anymore. I choose Attractive Partners because I felt that you were an up-market introduction agency and that you would be selective about the women you introduce me to.’ ‘I was looking for a classy, stylish, sophisticated country lady and your agency seemed to understand exactly what I was asking for. Claire is a wonderful woman – thank you so much for introducing us’ ‘Having tried introduction agencies in London at vast expense I wanted an agency that I felt was value for money, but at the same time dealing with high calibre people.’ ‘My son who runs a large accountancy practice in the city told me about you. He said that joining introduction agencies is the way many of his friends have found their partners. ‘The name did it for me – I love attractive women’ Here’s the views of fifty attractive, intelligent women on why they chose to join Attractive Partners as opposed to other professional introduction / dating agencies On-line dating agencies didn’t work for me so I looked around for a successful professional introduction agency as I had heard that ‘proper’ introduction agencies would cater for people of my calibre’. I joined Attractive Partners because you are a dating agency for professionals and as a Lawyer I need to meet someone professional like myself. Your advert ‘Gorgeous men don’t grow on trees’ really struck a chord with me – it said everything all good-looking women think when they go out – “where do unattached desirable men hang out?” ‘I am 41, tall, slim and considered to be very attractive. Meeting men on a par with me both financially and intellectually was not easy before I joined you. Your honesty impressed me when you said you could not guarantee to find me the man of my dreams, but I am happy to say that you have done just that. Max and I are planning to marry in June ’08 – thank you so much for introducing us – we are perfectly suited’. ‘I spoke to four other dating/introduction agencies before deciding to join you. Everyone is so friendly even if I don’t meet a lover through you I feel I have had my money’s worth in meeting two fabulous men already, one of whom has already become a very dear friend.’ ’ The word ‘attractive’ almost put me off joining. I am an ex model and without being big headed I can honestly say that lots of men find me very attractive. What I seek in a man is far more important than good looks – a kind, cuddly, sexy man with a good sense of humour who loves me for more than my looks would be marvellous.’ ‘ …..because my friend Anne x x x x found her husband Peter through you.’ ‘I had always imagined that dating or introduction agencies were for desperate people – you reassured me by saying that you would rather introduce me to nobody at all than send me someone for the sake of a date. I am pleased to say that the two men I have met are almost exactly perfect for me – although I am still waiting for someone who ‘lights my fire’ – maybe it will be my next introduction!’ ’ Your brochure did it for me – you all seem to be honest, caring people who are genuinely interested in finding partners for your clients’. ‘I have joined two very ‘up-market and expensive introduction agencies in the past without success – your fees are so reasonable and the one man I have met so far was almost perfect’. ‘My friend Rachel met Simon through you – they are both so happy and sing your praises – I thought I would see what you could do for me – I am looking forward to meeting Harry next week’. Flirting Tip Everyone knows that eye contact is a sure-fire way to let someone know you are interested in them. Looking directly into the eyes of a stranger can make even the most confident person feel awkward. Here is a small tip – next time you are talking to someone you fancy – check to see the colour of their eyes. Try it today – bet it works!
