What Stockport members say

“Honestly Stockport is not a hard place to date, it is a hard place to write a good opener. Once I asked real questions about Stockport, it changed.”

“The thing nobody says about dating in Stockport is that the second message matters more than the first one you send a Stockport match.”

— Chloe, RuneDate member

“Keeping it local in Stockport sounds obvious, but half the people I matched with elsewhere were never going to cross Stockport to meet me.”
