Dating is time-consuming. There is no other way of putting it. Chatting someone up is time-consuming, making the phone call is time-consuming, and having a first date can be very very time-consuming.

And look at you, for Pete's sake. You're a busy, popular person. Between meeting up with your work friends, school friends, uni friends, ex-work friends, your friends from football/rugby/hockey/netball/uh,frisbee, the friends you kind of nicked from your ex, that person you find seriously funny that none of your other friends like, and occasionally going to the gym, you don't have a spare evening very often. And when you do, you need to do your washing and call the folks. In fact, you're so damn busy that frankly we're surprised you've read this far. (Though we do appreciate it.)

This is the true beauty of online dating in Leeds. You don't need to spend all your time having fun with your friends on the one hand and checking out the talent with the other. (Not literally with the other, obviously. In most places, that would get you a slap. And if you're frequenting the places where it wouldn't, then you'll need more than a dating site to find you a special someone.) It takes about nine seconds to read a profile and look at a photo. And about two seconds to send a wink. Boom. You've done in eleven seconds what it would have taken you two hours to work up the courage to do in a bar, by which time you'd be hammered anyway. (Though your friends love you hammered - or love laughing at you when you're hammered, anyway - no potential dates will love you hammered. Fact.)

And here's where Lovestruck Leeds really comes into its own - when, after you've winked, got a wink back, messaged, got a message back, had some banter, got a flirtation going and thought to yourself "hey, this person seems kind of ace. I could handle meeting up with them"‚ and you DO actually meet up, you can do it at lunch or straight after work. Our site is designed to help you find other gorgeous Lovestruckers who work near you. So you can just pop out of the office, meet them for half an hour, have a natter over a sandwich or a drink and then take it from there.

It's not like good-looking single people aren't out there. They're everywhere! On the train, the bus, in the street or the sandwich shop queue. You're surrounded by them all day long. You probably saw one of them this morning. All you have to do is meet them.

So what are you waiting for? Check out our Little Black Book, find a lovely Lovestrucker who works near you, and arrange to meet up...
