What were your first impressions of the site? Which aspects gave you the most confidence?

My first impression was my goodness, there are a lot of people of my generation and single, out there. what gave me confidence was the friendly and intelligent responses to my profile.

Her smile and sense of humour, along with an inquisitive mind as well as being multi-lingual.
