We set up Veggie Romance in 2003 for vegans & vegetarians wishing to meet likeminded singles for friendship and dating. We recognised that there are lots of people out there who, for different reasons (work commitments, lack of time or opportunity), are finding it tricky to meet new people, and that this can be compounded by wanting to meet others who share the vegan & vegetarian lifestyle.

Why online dating?
You may be new to this, you may be in two minds whether to put a profile online and give online dating a go. Well don't worry, you're not alone.

There are now more singles than ever. You may not meet people through work (you may not want to date your colleagues!), you may not be the kind of person who meets people in bars or clubs... the growth of the Internet has given rise to a new vehicle for meeting people...

Online dating is fast becoming one of the main ways for people to meet partners and widen their circle of friends, offering as it does a wide pool of people members would otherwise not meet and the discretion to contact members in privacy. Where once it had a stigma, now it's becoming commonplace. Online dating is coming out!

Why VeggieRomance?
Online dating sites can be a little impersonal and you can be left with a feeling that you're using a remote service not run by real people. Veggie Romance was designed for and is run by real people. We want the site to work for everyone and are always on hand to offer advice and tips. If you want us to take a peek at your profile and give you feedback, give advice about writing your first message, or more general dating tips, or if you have any questions about the site, please just drop us a line or call on 020 7288 2233 and we'll help out.

Online Safety & Etiquette
By and large most of the people on sites like ours are normal people - not nutters, not scammers, not married people looking for a bit on the side. They're genuine singles looking to meet someone. However, as in all walks of life, online and offline, there will be people who are less than truthful - this may range from someone telling fibs about their height or uploading an old (more flattering!) photo to people purporting to be single when they're not. We always advise you to exercise caution and common sense, just as you would when meeting someone in a bar. Get to know a little bit about them by exchanging messages through the site, don't rush to pass on your contact details and be suspicious of anyone who asks for them immediately. Look out for things which don't ring true. We won't ever pass on your contact details and you should be careful about doing so. We've put together some advise and suggestions about online dating which you can read in our Dating Tips.
