I built a website to get a girlfriend. What could go wrong?!

This is a Paragraph Font

If you’ve seen me online and weren’t sure how to get my attention, this is the least subtle way to do it.

Why this page exists

Dating apps are grim.

Meeting someone IRL seems to be getting harder.

(I mean, I’m not just going to stop you in the street, because that feels like a lot of pressure for everyone involved.)

And Instagram is weird because you can see someone, follow them, watch their stories, maybe like the odd post… but then what?

- Are you supposed to DM them?

- Hope they DM you?

- Keep liking stories until one of you dies?

There doesn’t seem to be an obvious next step.

And I like obvious next steps.

So I made one.

This page is basically my attempt to make the jump from “I’ve seen you online” to “let's actually talk” a bit clearer.

(That's the idea, anyway!)

So if you’ve seen me online and thought, “he seems alright”, this is the simplest way to do something about it.

A bit about me

Hey, I'm Nick!

I’m single and I’m looking for the right woman for something real.

I run my own business, I’m fairly ambitious, and I’m trying to build a life that feels good rather than just looks good from the outside.

I like walks, intelligent conversations, travelling to cool places, taking the piss, and spending time with people who don’t make life feel like hard work.

I’m not flashy and I’m not trying to be some weird alpha male.

I just want a good life, with good people, and someone brilliant to share it with.

You might be my kind of woman if…

You’re kind, fun, and don’t take yourself too seriously.

You look after yourself and enjoy being active.

You like the idea of actually doing things together, not just defaulting to TV on repeat.

You’ve got your own life, your own opinions, and a bit of direction.

You like good conversations, daft humour, walks, and travelling to cool places.

You’re not looking to rush anything, but you’re open to something real if the right person comes along.

I’m probably not for you if…

You love drama, chaos, or making life harder than it needs to be.

You have kids. Nothing against anyone who does, but that’s just not the chapter I’m looking to step into.

Your ideal weekend involves getting absolutely ruined.

You take yourself painfully seriously.

You’re careless with money, honesty, or other people’s feelings.

You think a man building a dating page is too ridiculous to forgive.

What happens if you send me a nudge?

  • Nothing scary.

  • You get taken to my Instagram

  • You say hello - and maybe share something interesting about yourself

  • We chat

  • And if that goes well, maybe we meet up like normal people.

  • Wild concept, I know.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this for real?

Yes, it is. I know this might seem a bit strange because it's never been done before (to my knowledge) but I am actually single and I would like to meet the right woman.

And my mum and dad would like that for me too.

What happens after I click the big blue button/send you a nudge?

Honestly, I wish there was something more exciting to tell you.

I’ll have a look at your “application”, and if there seems to be a bit of mutual interest, we’ll exchange a few messages, have a proper chat, and take it from there.

Where are you based? Where would you travel to meet someone?

So I'm based in Sheffield, so ideally you'd obviously be based somewhere kinda nearby. But honestly, I'm not overthinking this one. If you're on the other side of the country to me then we might have an issue, but if you're kinda close and we connect well, then I'm sure we can make it work. Especially as I can work from anywhere...

For context, my ex lived ~3 hours from me when we started dating. Not ideal, but we made it work because we wanted to.

Where the hell did you get the idea to create a page like this?

I work in marketing, so creating landing pages to sell solutions is basically my day job.

And one day I was walking to work, wondering how the hell I’m supposed to meet a nice woman, and it hit me:

Do some marketing.

And this landing page was born.

Will this ridiculous idea work? Who knows.

But if you’re reading this, it’s already going better than expected.

What do you mean by "no drama"?

I mean, we all disagree sometimes. That's completely normal.

But what I'm looking for is someone who wants to solve problems rather than create them.

And if/when one of us upsets the other, let's talk about it, understand each other, apologise when needed, and come out stronger.

If your default response is shouting, silent treatment, constant arguments or trying to "win", we're probably not a good match.
