Celebrating OkCupid Success Stories
Millions of matches are made on OkCupid every week — today, we’re highlighting 6 awesome OkCupid couples
What’s better to celebrate than love? Now that springtime has officially arrived, love is in the air — and we’re feeling particularly nostalgic over all of the amazing couples who have found their love on OkCupid. Here are some of their stories.
Colin & Carlene
Both of us lived in the Bay Area for years but had no idea each other existed until OkCupid brought us together in the sunny summer of ’16. We knew after the first date when we both had butterflies and barely touched our lunches that we were each other’s someone special. Love can spring from anywhere given the chance and we will always be grateful to OkCupid for helping give us our chance and being the start to our strong and beautiful relationship.
Candace & Michelle
We met on OkCupid way back in 2013. Online dating can be intimidating but connecting on OKC was simple. We got to see and read a little about each other, message back and forth, and eventually meet in person! That one message was life changing. It led us to start dating, move in together, get married, and we just welcomed our first child in 2021! I’m so thankful that OKC (and Michelle’s bravery) led me to my adventure partner for life.
Kyle & Ashley
The wildest part is that, when we met, it was her first night on the app! We had a lot in common, from a love of burgers to Todd Rundgren, and both of us rearranged our schedules to meet up as soon as we possibly could. That was in 2016. Almost 6 years later, we are married, we have two cats, a niece and a nephew. We are each other’s family, and we gained new, amazing extended families as well. We love everything about one another, aside from the times we have to be apart. We’ve built this amazing life together and it all started on OkCupid.
Sarah & Tyler
We have been through so much and grew so much together. He has said he loves my selflessness and humor. I love how he takes care of his family and shows so much love. We truly have a great connection! I was so unsure when getting onto OkCupid, but once we connected, it was hard for me to believe. Yet, over 5 years later we are still together and so happy. We are living the dream now in Alaska — fly fishing, hiking and ATV rides. Me, him, our daughter and his family are so close — its amazing and I am very thankful!
Bailey & Sam
Bailey: I love Sam’s sense of humor and his ability to stay calm in any situation, it keeps me grounded and so at ease. He is truly my safe place…on a good day, on a bad day, I immediately knew that was something I never wanted to live without.
Sam: I love Bailey’s bubbly personality and how she can make anyone feel like her friend. Not to mention that she is absolutely beautiful and ridiculously talented 😉
Matt & Jillian
I was excited and nervous to meet him. We were talking for a long time on OkCupid and then texting a lot. I could tell he was shy because it took him a while to ask me out on a date. I was patiently waiting for him to ask me. I usually don’t swipe right first but I felt something special. I was nervous because I’ve had bad dates before but I knew I had to keep trying. When I met him it’s like I knew he was my person. We had so much in common. We watched movies and we wound up having dinner together and talked all night. When he left we texted all night. I knew it was going to be a success! I love his empathy and his love for pets because we have that in common. I love how he will do anything for me to make me happy. I love how he is my best friend and we have the same sense of humor. I love how we say the same things at the same time and finish each others sentences. We are like one person.
