Online Dating Site for Ugly Finds Success Pretty Quickly
Oct 28, 2010 Dating Websites
Women and men doing online dating must like to read about ugly people. Maybe it’s for relationship searches. Maybe it’s for amusement purposes. Either way, since you’re here I’m assuming you are one of these people. I mean you are an online dating person, not an ugly man or woman.
The post I did recently, Online Dating Home of the Brave and Ugly was quite popular. So many people read it that I promised to follow the story. Here is an interesting update of this unique piece of online dating news.
“Ugly Website” Unveils Its First Engaged Couple!
Pretty luck, huh? After just two months of online matchmaking for people who don’t count mirrors as friends, British-based website, The Ugly Bug Ball has already gotten credit for a couple getting engaged.
You can decide for yourself if the pair of lovebirds in the photo is “aesthetically challenged.” However, I will tell you that upon first glance (and actually my second, too), I thought for sure they were lesbians.
Their Love at First Bite Story
Tom (on the left) is 36. He works as a carpet fitter and has been single since 1998. He describes himself as having “a face that makes children cry.” He found 31-year old Janine on the site in late August soon after it launched.
They say a shared love of junk food and TV dinners was enough for them to “know” after just four dates. ”I always thought I was too ugly to meet Mrs. Right,” says Tom. “But my life changed when I met Janine. She’s beautiful and I love her in every possible way. I still can’t believe this happening.”
Now having just gotten engaged this week, the couple is planning a wedding this winter, and has already started writing their vows to each other.
They have also received a free honeymoon to Borth in Wales, courtesy of The Ugly Bug Ball. It brings to mind the old saying, “There is no such thing as an ugly bride.” I’d say that adage might soon be expecting a challenge. But based on some of the weddings I’ve attended, I’ve already seen enough proof.
