Featured Story

"I never imagined finding love again at 63. After my divorce, I was certain that chapter was closed. Velvet One gave me courage. Robert messaged me first with the kindest note about my hiking photos. We talked every day for two weeks before meeting for coffee. That coffee lasted four hours."

Harold Patricia

"Losing my wife of 38 years left me hollow. My children encouraged me to try Velvet One. Patricia and I bonded over a shared love of jazz and terrible puns. She makes every morning worth getting up for."

Susan David

"I was skeptical of online dating but Velvet One felt different — mature, respectful, no games. David and I had so much in common it was almost scary. We married on the Oregon coast last autumn."
