Make Friends Online

Despite their slightly out of date advertising banners, Make Friends Online is now (as of 2009) 4 years old and has more than 700,000 members in the United Kingdom and there are several of reports of marriages between individuals who met through their site and social events, and even 5 babies born to couples who met using this service!

The Make Friends Online service appears to have takien onboard the wise adage that most individuals meet future partners through social events, and that social events that are specifically NOT speed dating or singles type events provide the chance to have a social life and make friend, not to mention the chance to find yourself in coversation with that special someone.

Apart from the usual internet singles services, social meetings and parties are arranged by members every week, right up and down the country, and advertised through the site's Party Managements System. The site also has a strong communal chat system so you can join in the socialising and gossip with other members even when you can't physically get together.

If traditional singles services strike you as just a bit too 'desperate' for you, and you are as much interested in developing a social life as meeting one other person, then this may be the right service for you.
