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.” Read more

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.”

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.” Read more

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!”

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.”

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.” Read more

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.”

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.”

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.” Read more

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.”

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.” Read more New York Times

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.” Read more

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!” Read more

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.” Read more

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.” Read more

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.” Read more

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.” Read more
