Real love stories
Jill and Carl
“My favorite part of dating through It’s Just Lunch was that they set up everything for you in advance. I didn’t have to do any of the work. If there wasn’t any chemistry, I knew I’d be meeting someone interesting, so I never felt like going on the dates was a waste!”
Karlene and Peter
“My favorite part was the interview process and the ongoing contact with my matchmaker. I never felt alone in the process. IJL did all of the hard work by setting up the dates. One of my favorite things was calling in after a date to go over feedback and talk about how the date went.”
Toni and Zach
“I ultimately decided to join It’s Just Lunch because my sister’s good friend met her husband using the service. I was so busy professionally and didn’t have time for online dating, so I thought I’d give it a shot. The process was so easy! I loved that the dates were planned for us and all we had to do was show up.”

Before IJL, I was new to a huge, scary city and I didn't know a single person. Dating with the help of IJL has helped me get out, meet new people and see new places. I love trying new things and now I'm more confident with my city's culture. I have a super demanding career with crazy work hours. Being in a new city, I was finding it very hard to get out and meet new people. Audra and the team at IJL helped push me to get out in ways I never could have done on my own. Trying to places with people I would have never met without the help of IJL were just a couple of the amazing perks! I am fairly confident meeting new people, but a first date with IJL always comes with a lot of nervous excitement. It's always very nice to know that even though you're going into a first date blind (for the most part), you have the support of your IJL Team cheering you on from behind the scenes! They truly want the best for you.
Online dating can be mindless and fun, but who really has time for that? Weeding out weird/fake/creepy profiles can be a full time job and you can never be truly sure of someone's intentions. With IJL, you can feel confident that your matches are going to be on the same page as you. They are investing in their future, just like you are, so you know that they are serious. It's a relief to have IJL helping you behind the scenes. Letting IJL do the "dirty" work while you get to enjoy the perks is priceless! Updating your IJL team after a date is just like calling a friend to fill them in. They're cheering for you because they want you to succeed.
