Dating Agencies

Dating agencies (or more properly, introduction agencies), are considered to be the most successful option out of all dating possibilities in terms of maximising your chances of meeting your future partner. They tend to be for the more 'mature' client (30+) who is committed to finding a relationship. They offer a way of introducing you to like-minded people and eliminate at least some of the games that people play to establish what the other person wants from a relationship.

The more expensive types of agency will analyse your profile and handpick your potential dates for you. They will also vet all their clients, making it a far safer option than using personal ads or Internet dating.

If you decide to use a dating agency, it's up to you to provide the most important elements to make it a success. You have to be honest with yourself, be relaxed about the whole thing, and try to look upon the entire experience as a fun way to meet people.

In this section, you'll find a guide to the three different types of agency commonly used today, their pros and cons, and what you'll need to consider when choosing the most suitable one for you.
