Success Stories
We just launched this feature so not all of our stories are available
yet, but they're coming soon.
If OkCupid has led you to a success
of your own, let us know!
After dinner he told me that he knew I had a terrible day and he asked me all about it but he had one last question. With all the crankiness I had in me, I sweetly said, "NOW WHAT?!?!" I looked up to see him on one knee in front of me!!! Read more »
I remember my first impression of him was "Wow, he looks like a dork!" I was right! Read more »
He told me when he was signing up, they had suggested my profile, and after he had fully signed up, he searched through all the nearby profiles just to find mine again. We hit it off really quickly, and after less than a week, he suggested a date. Read more »
When we first started talking on OK Cupid, we lived a couple hundred miles apart and chatted just for the fun of it - neither of us had any immediate thought of actually dating. Then a few months later we were bored and decided to meet each other the next day at an amusement park. It was all downhill from there! Read more »
One night, I was browsing who was online and saw Josh's profile, I immediately thought he was very cute so IM'd him, got an adorable message back and we started talking. I was living in Beaverton at the time and him in Eugene but had been planning to go back down to Eugene so it was great. Read more »
Chelsea was going out of town for several months, and on a whim decided to meet this guy she had met online before she set sail. Unfortunately, they fell for each other, and idiotically started out their relationship long-distance. Read more »
We're so much alike; best friends, lovers, and companions. We each have previously been married, so we feel that we've discovered what it really takes to make us happy. When we found it, we didn't waste any time, and grabbed it! Life is too short! Read more »
I had posted an afterthought to a journal entry and he read it and thought my profile sounded interesting. He wasn't sure about the distance (we lived about 300 miles apart) but decided to give it a chance. Read more »
Second date--the Freedom Trail in Boston. It was the most amazing, romantic, interesting date I've been on to this day. He took me to a really great Mexican place for lunch, and then we did the entire freedom trail. He was my guide, and held my hand throughout the walk. Read more »
We went to the Detroit Science Center on our very first date, and hit it off so well that we made a second date for that evening. Since then, we've pretty much been inseparable. I never thought I'd meet someone so intelligent, thoughtful and funny let alone have that person feel the same way about me. Read more »
I am writing you guys this success story because had we been on any other site, we would never have been a match, what with Steve being an Atheist (screw you, eHarmony) and me being a Christian. Thanks to OkCupid for allowing people who aren't a great match in some computer somewhere to find one another. :) Read more »
OkCupid was suggested to me by a friend who met her husband on the site, she insisted that it could be and did turn out to be a favourite online community. Since joining, I've met people who have turned into wonderful friends, and now, I am in the kind of relationship that I was looking to be in with my partner. Read more »
After about 12 hours of chatting online, and one long phone call, we met and confirmed what we both believed was happening. We were engaged within a month and married 8 months later. At our ages, we know who we are and what we need, and we also know that it's important to gather information and make decisions, because opportunities don't last forever. Read more »
Our first date was at a place called Datsa Pizza. I forget exactly what we ordered at that pizza place, but I remember his warm hands on my face, and his warm smile against my lips. Read more »
We've been dating for about 9 months now. I am more comfortable with him than I am with any human on this earth. Our relationship has been such a positive influence on my life. Read more »
