POF Success Stories?Page 1 of 3    (1, 2, 3)
People talk about all the jerks, bad dates that didn't go well and wondering if they will ever find someone on here?

I think myself and others would like to know of the success stories.

Please tell us how you met on here (read profile and said hey, met at an event ..), how long you dated before you knew they were the one, how long you have been together and any other happy details.

Thanks,
Sweet

Well i met my fish at a POF at a friends house, long weekend. So far he has been nothing but wonderful to me. I am fighting cancer right now, and am bald and everyday he tells me how sexy i am. To everyone who has given up, Dont! It took me a long time to find my fish but u know what, it was worth the wait!

Thanks so much for your story and wish you many happy days with your fishy.

Hugs from someone looking for her match and fellow leukemia survivor. I didn't give up on beating leukemia and won't give up on finding my match. You are lucky to have found a match to help you to beat leukemia.

I have an unusual success story.

I been testign the water getting nibble after nibble and then I would get a bite, hoping for something big and rather only getting a catfish or a sunfish and throwing them back.

Well one day in my searching it hit me, i had been overlooking someone for so long, neglecting someone even thought they have loved me and been there for me for so long, and then i decided that your right I am an ass I have to do something about this.

So now here I am happily ever after inlove with my right hand.

Its so grand.

Sorry to hear SNS, I'm still waiting too.

I'm glad to hear of another great match though from POF, I needed to hear some great stories to help me not give up.

Both couples are adorable.

Thanks,
Sweet

I don't think a success story can just be measured by finding a date/boyfriend/girlfriend. I think it should also be measured by the amount of friends you can make on this site. I have met some wonderful people, become friends with them, and hope to meet more. If I meet my life long love then great, if not then oh well ... I still think I am successful because I have met some great friends!!

Thats so very true.

While I have met one very worth while guy that I've been seeing for almost 7 months now, I've made tons of friends near and far, old and young. Its wonderful, and I also find that as being successful.

Hi, I thought id start replying to some of these! About time, ive probably been on here for just over a year now!
Ive met probably about 5 people of this site, some remaining friends, some not! But very interesting people!
There was one particular one that had sent me a msg early on in september, we were suppose to meet at the end, but the friday night before the sunday I was in a car accident, and wasnt feeling up to going out and playing soccer like we were suppose to, and plus me being the me , I started seeing the bouncer from the bar i always went to, my second home! he became one of my bestfriends..
But yea in the beginning of january we met for the first time, , and when we went out we got a long very well, needless to say though we talked many times on msn and asked a lot of questions so we were kinda stuck on that when we went out for coffee.. shyness...
I went on a trip to cuba in january, and we had hung out twice before i left!
We wrote emails back and forth while I was gone!
When i got back on the friday he called, and then we hung out on the saturday!
Soo the whole point to this is, is that the one I have met, has made me sooo happy each day that we have spent together! And I would like to thank him for that!
Im not saying its a success story, as we have much more to learn about one another, but the time we have been spending together, has been awesome!
And all i have left to say is that, i thank pof also, for giving me the opportunity to meet an amazing person! and all the other good people I have met as well..
And for right now! Im not letting this fishy go! I can see us together in the future, and I believe he would say the same thing!
Were making banana pancakes on sunday! mmmm im excited!

Thanks for reading!

I haven't found a keeper yet, but this site has been successful for me.

It has given me the opportunity to get out there and meet people that I may have not been able to meet in my regular life.

Doing this POF thing has also made me realize that I will never settle for second best.

It's also given me a lot of funny & scary dating stories to add to my collection.
