Erica & David

“We clicked instantly and had so much to talk about on our first date. Including the idea that became our first collaboration -- a documentary we co-produced a few months later.”

Lia & Goldwyn

“In March of 2021, my friend Mike gave me a deadline by which I had to start dating again after a nasty breakup. I reluctantly downloaded a new app and half-heartedly perused options. I matched with exactly one man, put my phone down, and told Mike I’d met his deadline.”

Image

Megan & Rusty

“We were both each other's first date on The League. Some time later on a trip to Bermuda, she looked at me with a big beautiful smile and said 'I think I’m falling in love with you.' I did not mean to disregard it at the time but I already felt I had met the one.”

Image

Sean & Lindsey

“Our first date, we ran into more mutual friends than we thought possible and were astonished how we had never met. It just worked. It flowed. We danced. We kissed. We got lost. We never left each other’s side again. We’ve been all around the world together, started businesses, been to the Super Bowl, introduced new loves, and journeyed together in ways external and internal that are beyond imagination. Life is truly beautiful.”

Image

Alisha & Vivek

“In our late 20s, Vivek and I had reached a point where we were both moderately established in our respective career paths, but were ready to settle down and start a family. We both had tried several different dating apps with little success. We joined The League in hopes to find an educated professional in the D.C. Metro area who shared similar values. Finding each on the app felt like fate. We were polar opposites with equally opposite backgrounds, yet similar in many ways. He was also the only one who never lied about his height!”

Image

Sarah & Will

“We were both busy professionals in a big city, and exhausted a multitude of dating apps before we found the League. I almost did not match on my future husband because I thought he was too good to be true! We had only been on a few dates before we went to a street fair together and my future husband got food poisoning. I spent the next day taking care of him and carting him to and from urgent care, in all of his gross glory. I knew in that moment that I loved him and he was the one for me, in sickness and in health.”

Image

Jenna & Max

“Two distant pieces in a 200 million-count puzzle, we had both tried to connect permanently with others, to no avail. We agree though, no past relationship was ever a failure, per se. Each brought us steps closer to understanding our true selves. Once we met, both of us complete halves by that point, the connection was sublime.”

Image

Sonya & Nick

“Nick and I have so much in common that he was suspicious at first! Our commonalities were uncanny, but our differences compliment each other so well- it’s truly a match made in heaven. I’ve always been skeptical of the notion of soul mates but it is like he was custom made for me.”

Image

Ashley & Ari

“Not long after arriving in Houston Ari matched with Ashley on The League. The two shared their love for travel and soon began traveling with each other, making trips to London, Tulum and Maui together. After dating for about 2 years Ari proposed on a vacation in Santorini, Greece.”

Stepanie & Ashwin

“While The League verified each other's identity via LinkedIn, Stephanie still harbored doubts that she was being cat-fished, as Ashwin declared in his very first in-app message that he was in Jaipur when the app's location had him in Jersey City. After some persuasion, Stephanie agreed to a first date. What Stephanie expected to be a quick 30-minute meet-up turned into a 5-hour marathon.”

Image

Katie & Mark

“Mark was my first date on The League and my very first date in Chicago! I was instantly intrigued by Mark’s “golden retriever in human form” profile description and his loyalty, kindness, openness, and enthusiasm for life has truly exceeded description.”

Image

Karina & John

“On our first date a couple sitting next to us asked me to take a picture of them and after I went to the bathroom, the couple asked my date if we’ve been together for years because we just seemed like such a fun and compatible couple and he said, 'This is actually our first date!' They we’re shocked, to say the least.”

Image

Lloyd & Erik

“Erik knew Lloyd was the one when he realized he was his complete, authentic self throughout the whole dating process. It felt so freeing to discover that there was a perfect match out there where neither of us had to edit ourselves.” New York Times

Tory & Anthony

“I knew that he was my person when we got back from a date and he made me bacon for a late-night snack. Then we slow-danced in his living room.”

Emilie & Rylan

“Like proper millennials, we met on the League- it was the first date either of us had been on via The League.”

Image

Heidi & Jack

“During our very first date I realized Heidi was perfect for me. I texted my brother-in-law while we were on our first date and said the words 'I think I could marry this girl.”

Brooke & Alexander

“When we were asked to describe our relationship in one word, we both independently said "partnership.” New York Times

Megan & Caleb

“When I saw his profile, I audibly gasped because, on paper, he was perfect for me. We quickly learned that our values, interests, sense of humor, and love for one another aligned so well.”

Juan Thomas & Matt
San Francisco, California

“Having an equal partner in all respects--and someone to have an endless conversation with--are pretty unique characteristics of our relationship. Our friends jokingly say that being around us is like being on the 'Matt & JT' show.”

Image

Lindsay & Dustin
San Francisco, California

“We both make one another better. We cheer each other on and want to be our best selves for one another. While this may seem small, it is truly different than any relationship either of us has ever had.” New York Times

Image

Jonalisa & Harvey

“We are both in our 30s and we spent most of the last decade single. It is amazing to me how well we fit with each other. We just get each other without much effort. He fits in so well with my family and we share similar backgrounds, beliefs, and values. Our premarital therapist told us we are the most compatible couple she has ever met.”

Ben & Kylie
New York City, New York

"I’m not going to have you elude me, I would really like to take you out!" I eventually managed to get her out to The Penrose and the rest is history. Moral of the story chaps, fortune favors the bold!”

Image

Jason & Micharra
Los Angeles, California

“Jason was my second date on The League and I was his first. After we'd been dating, it just hit me one day like 'Boom! This is it!.' I just knew he was the one.”

Image

Kelly & Bryan
New York City, New York

“We both have demanding jobs but when we are together we focus on each other and listen to one another, making sure we are both feeling supported and loved.”

Image

Travis & Lisa
San Francisco, California

“We scheduled our first date, but Lisa got cold feet and told me she "needed to get her brakes changed." After some additional prodding, we met at Presidio Picnic on a Sunday afternoon. Nine hours later, we both knew that this is where our love story began!”

Julie & Jim

“We met on The League, which we had both joined within the last year, and had our first date just before the world shut down. We continued to see each other. We both knew it was the right fit right away and got engaged after five weeks. It felt so natural to do so.”

Keith & Michelle
Los Angeles, California

“Where one of us is lacking, the other is strong. We keep each other accountable and are one another’s biggest fans. We have come to realize that both of us have lived very different lives, but with the same values.”

Image

Leanna & Phil

“She is extremely driven (occasionally to a fault), very supportive of me and my career (she put up with me working full-time and working through a part-time MBA program for 2.5 years of our relationship), and challenges me to be the best version of me possible - even when I would rather be an "okay" version of me.”

Katherine & Hal

“A unique aspect of our relationship is that we can be ourselves around each other and that we have the same values despite having different faiths. ”

Image

Sara & Nathan
Los Angeles, California

“I knew she was the one after a couple dates. I had never felt the way I do about anyone else ever. The connection was very deep and soulful from the start and she laughed at my jokes!”

Image

Rebecca & Matt
San Francisco, California

“While dating I shared with him that I wanted to start my own company & become a successful entrepreneur. Now, not only have we started a life & family, but are also starting a company together.”

Image

Toniann & Mark
New York City, New York

“He immediately asked for a second date and the rest is history.”

Image

Ross & Victoria
San Francisco, California

“It was very clear that we were on the same page from the very beginning. The conversation was normal and easy and we had so much in common.”

Image

Tricia & Greg
New York City, New York

“We work essentially across the street from each other and would never have met had it not been for the League.”

Image

Michelle & Mark
New York City, New York

“I heard about the League when I was living in SF working at KKR. With a demanding profession & little extra time, I was excited to meet similarly driven guys in other industries. In 2016 I made the Forbes 30 under 30 list for finance & subsequently found my future husband who is incredibly kind but just as career-focused as me.”

Image

Roxy & Hal
New York City, New York

“After being career minded singles living in NYC for years, six months into dating we moved in together. Our lives continue to get more exciting as we welcomed our daughter, Delaney, into the world last November!”

George & Ashley

“One month after dating I knew he was the one. I remember sitting in my apartment with my roommate at the time saying “I think I love this guy”.
