If This Isn't Romantic, Then I Don't Know What Is!

November 12, 2014/in Date Stories /by CMB

Sherri and Jon's profiles
Who says dating apps can’t inspire romance? We think that Sherri and Jon are the perfect anecdote to prove otherwise.
It’s not a surprise that Sherri and Jon ended up together via Coffee Meets Bagel. They’re an attractive, and successful couple who have a buoyant grins in the many photos of their travels. “I liked Jon’s profile because he looked handsome and had a graduate degree.” Sherri says.
“I liked Sherri because she was cute, [and] had a good job,” Jon similarly chimes in. Their mutual attractiveness and smarts lead to their first date on December 14th, 2013 at the Pump Room in Chicago. The bonus? She picked up that Jon was a great cook and an even better friend.
“Jon…brought smoked pork belly and mulled wine (for [his friend’s holiday] party).” Sherri explains. She later discovered his prowess in the kitchen and in cocktail creations. To the outsider, it sounds as if they both naturally fell into each other. On January 5th, 2013 during a blizzard, they called it official. “Despite the weather, we had an amazing day in the city,” Sherri says.
To Coffee Meets Bagel users, they have uncannily similar advice. “Use Coffee Meets Bagel!” Jon’s advice to users goes, “think about the specific characteristics of a significant other that are most important to you.” As for Sherri?
“Take the time to put key things about yourself in your profile. Be honest with yourself about what matters to you,” she says. And most importantly, “stay positive.” In the midst of winter, perhaps it was also her positivity that helped Jon and Sherri’s relationship to blossom.

This Couple Is Way Too Cute To Be On Tinder! (…And They're Not!)

October 19, 2014/in Date Stories /by CMB
 Alex And Opokua's Profiles
Alex and Opokua met via Coffee Meets Bagel. From the get-go, they both sound like ambitious travelers. From New York to Colombia, it sounds as if their romance has taken them from the app to just about everywhere. It might have been the aura that exudes from successful world adventurers that brought them together. “She liked what my photos represented: the photo of me in front of the Egyptian pyramids implied that I was adventurous…Also, my educational background indicated that I was ambitious,” Alex says of Opokua. “I thought she was completely beautiful.” They connected on Coffee Meets Bagel, and two weeks after they met at a Senegalese restaurant— Opokua’s choice based on Alex’s travels to Senegal—they called it official. He describes them as eager, though, it seems that he was taking his own advice to Coffee Meets Bagel members. “Don’t ‘play it cool’ and be upfront with what you’re feeling,” he recommends, “…if you like her, show her affection on the first date.”
