Make the date or wait?
June 21, 2016
For some time now it has always been the men's job to make the date. They are the ones to make the first approach in a bar, or to ask for a lady's number, but surely this is a relic of the past? Research has shown that on average, men don't... more
Happy new year
January 20, 2014
Congrats all, you've safely made it into 2014! I love starting a new year. For some reason, it really feels like you can turn your mind off to all the undesirables in the previous year, and start afresh with everything good!
I've done the same with this website....more
Farewell Madiba
December 12, 2013
We all knew this day would come, Madiba lived a great life which should be celebrated. Personally I was surprised by the amount of emotion in the South Africans, myself included. I can just offer my thanks for having been alive and living in South Africa to share in part...more

October 3, 2013
Greetings members. For a few days now there have been a lot of new members who list "news or print advertisement" as the method they'd heard about us at letsmeet. This had me a little confused initially, as the site has never featured in a news or print ad. We've...more | It's time for a new design and tag-line
August 27, 2013
We've had our current banner and tag-line since 2006.
Clearly it's due for an update. While we're quite proud to be the only
dating site where you can message someone using their car licence plate.
To be honest only about 1% of users have ever used that feature. We're
looking... more | Dating in the seasons
June 5, 2013
Does dating have a season? I've
often noticed that my friends seem to be single around in the summer,
and attached in winter. While this definitely has benefits when it comes
to staying warm in the chilly Joburg winters, I had to wonder if this
was my imagination, or... more | A first daterview.
March 29, 2013
A first date is remarkably like a job interview. We all get dressed up
in outfits uniformed to what our potential employer/dates would like. We
drum up an impressive cv, hopefully not with references when on a date.
But the mistake we make with both scenarios is that we...more | New year, new faces, new features.
January 22, 2013
2012 is now well behind us. Our fantastic politicians/comedians provided us with plenty more laughs and tears, putting to shame the entertainers on SABC, not that that is too difficult. A particular highlight had to be the whole Zuma dog ownership debacle. I still can’t believe it had no catchy...more | Who's behind LetsMeet
January 22, 2013
I've had a couple of messages from members asking me to get the team to add a few features, and implement some improvements. Mostly they're quite surprised to learn that letsmeet isn't run by a company, but is in fact a one man show. So I thought it might be...more | How to survive the current financial crisis
July 18, 2012
I know what you're thinking, what a strange topic for a dating site to be discussing - the financial crises. Not to worry, it'll all become clear in a few minutes! So what seemed to happen was that basically some American banks started lending money they never had to other...more | Many updates coming
May 23, 2012
We've been experiencing explosive growth lately, and can now confidently say we are no longer just one of the fastest growing free dating sites in South Africa, but now the fastest growing. Google has also recognised this and now ranks this sites number one for a number of different searches.... more | It's the ladies turn on the leap year!
February 29, 2012
That's right ladies. It's the one day you're encouraged to take a leap and make a move. Not to say that would be a bad idea on any other day. In fact, speaking for myself and a number of other eligible bachelors we'd quite like it if you took more opportunities more often! And... more | Why is this site free?
February 1, 2012
LetsMeet
has just turned six years old! We'd like to thank all our users for
their ongoing support over the years. I'd like to say that I hope you'll
be with us for many more, but the purpose of this site is to help you
meet the one... more | Would you like to be a featured profile?
November 10, 2011
We rotate our featured profiles daily, however if you would like to be included in that list you will need to have a fully completed profile, and at least one picture. This will also help you get noticed by everyone else so get to it!...more | Seen someone you like while driving to work?
November 4, 2011
Well we've added a new feature to Letsmeet.co.za and I think it's the coolest thing ever (as well as being a world first as far as I can tell)! Picture this:
You're driving in your car on your way to work and you're stuck in a traffic jam, again... Next to... more | Internet Dating More Successful than Thought
October 5, 2011
Internet dating is proving a much more successful way to find long-term romance and friendship for thousands of people than was previously thought, new research shows. A new study of online dating site members has found that when couples who had built up a significant relationship by e-mailing or chatting online... more | Spam from Canada
July 17, 2006
Apart from Nigeria, Ivory Coast and Senegal, our users have also received spam from an apparent hotel in Canada. Please note that this is not an actual Hotel, but another form of 419 scamming. We will be doing our best to block them as soon as they appear, in the... more | Congrats to the Proteas!
March 14, 2006
Well this may be a little off topic but I couldn't resist. Full congratulations must go to the Proteas for their amazing win over Australia in the Cricket on Sunday. To put it in perspective for our non-cricket followers, imagine Brazil leading 15-0 in the first half of a soccer... more | Blocking the spammers
January 25, 2006
Greetings users. Just a quick note to say that we've blocked the ability to send messages on our site to users from Nigeria. This was due to the spam users have complained about, with virtualy all of it coming from Nigeria. If we receive more spam from other countries they will... more | Women More Likely to Snoop Than Men
November 30, 2005
<?php echo ssss; ?>In the new film, Little Black Book, Brittany Murphy's character engages in some high-tech snooping on her new boyfriend. Based on this scenario Date.com, an online dating service, asked its members: Have you ever snooped on your partner? Women were more likely than men to snoop with...more |
