“Online dating is the best thing that’s happened since McDelivery! Instantly gratifying. In fact, I met my boyfriend on Tinder last May. Before meeting him, my best date was a guy who brought me to an incredible bar, was interested in everything I had to say, laughed at all my jokes, and told me he had never met anybody quite like me in his life. Then, the classiness ended; we stayed out until 3am downing Bacardi Breezers and making out. It was so much fun!” – Annabelle Lim, 24, political and credit risks broker

“Once, I travelled an hour and a half – from Queens in New York to Long Island – for a Tinder date. It sounds crazy that I made all that effort, but I had a good feeling about this divorced dad who loved his kids. We visited castles and he even packed a bottle of wine for a picnic at the park after. I was very impressed that he had studied my photos beforehand and noticed that I loved seeing castles.” – Gwen*, 44, sales and marketing director
