SUCCESS STORIES 1. The study abroad fling. "I used TeddyMates when I was studying abroad in Ireland one semester. I actually met a guy who went to the same school as me, but without TEddyMates, we never would've crossed paths! We hit it off right away, and now we've been dating for almost six months." -Mary, 21 2. The one that just worked. "I met my current boyfriend on TeddyMates and it was a very normal dating experience. First date coffee, second date dinner, third date drinks, and we were officially together within a month. We've been together a year and a half and just moved in together!" -Bernadette, 26 3. The blossoming friendship. "The first time I met up with someone from TeddyMates, I turned it into more of a friend thing. I brought along my roommate and hung out with The Guy and one of his buddies. The four of us spent all night talking, and it was super great. Things didn't work out with The Guy, but my roommate and I still hang out with his friend on the reg." -Yours truly, 22 4.The one that ended in marriage. "After a few years of being on and off TeddyMates and dating a lot of guys who weren’t really right for me, I decided I’d give it another shot. But the difference this time was I deleted all the answers to the questions and started again, and tried REALLY HARD to be as honest as possible with what I wanted and what I was looking for. Threesomes? Actually no thank you. It made me squirm to be so honest because I worried that no one would actually want to date me. Anyway, the second person I went on a date with after my profile honesty refresh is now my husband, and we’ve been together for four years."-Carolyn, 30 5. The guy who was there the whole time. "I met my current BF on TeddyMates, We went to the same college, he worked out at the gym I worked at, he ate at the dining hall I also worked at (so I tell him I was cooking for him before he even knew it), and we worked one block from each other in Manhattan. BUT we never met until our first date at a speakeasy after talking onTeddyMates. Now we live together." -Danielle, 26
