Editor's Verdict:

Love and Friends is specifically aimed at single professionals looking for anything between a long term relationship and friendship, as the name would suggest. It puts emphasis on social networking more than online dating, so if you're new to the online dating scene, Love And Friends would be a good place to start!

Basic membership is a lot more limited than similar sites which means you don't get a good enough 'feel' of it before you subscribe. The subscription charges of Love And Friends seem to be a little higher than those of similar sites. Whist there are occasional discounts, they're only advertised when you sign up. This may however have something to do with the people they're targeting. According to Love and Friends, they differ from many other dating sites because a large proprortion of their members are well-educated professional who perform 'Interesting' or 'Challenging' jobs. They say that their membership base includes: Directors, Doctors, Lawyers, Managers, Writers, Media, Marketing, TV&Film, Firefighting instructors, Personal Trainers, Life Coaches, Therapists, Teachers, Nurses, Computing people, Students, the unemployed and the retired.

Although Love And Friends may be more expensive than its rivals, there are some enhanced features that make up for the higher prices. Like other sites, you can send and receive messages, but with LoveAndFriends.com you also receive a Read Receipt. This is basically an email telling you when the member you've mailed has read your correspondence. This is incredibly helpful as you'll know that you're not being ignored if the user is simply not checking their mail because they're on vacation. On the other hand, if they read your message and they don't reply, then you'll know not to pursue them.

There's also a conversation screen, which tracks all the correspondence you've had with a user so you can remind yourself what you've been chatting about. This is especially useful if you've had correspondence with several people and you can't remember who was going away on holiday, who's cat just died and who just got a promotion at work! This feature could help you avoid some embarrassing mix-ups!

Another high end feature is the compatibility questionnaire containing over 100 questions and individual sections dealing with attributes, activities, relationships, sense of humour, etc. This could greatly improve your chances of finding someone that is compatible as a friend and/or a lover.

The Yes-No-Maybe feature is a fairly standard feature that allows other users to see who's interested in them! When you perform a search, you are invited to click yes, no, or maybe, dependent on whether you would date them or not. As you can view people who have clicked yes or maybe this could act as an ice-breaker, or a nice excuse to contact someone you've got your eye on!

Love and Friends awards its users badges for their profiles, called Member Credentials. We love this idea as basically it's a series of ID checks which stop scammers in their tracks. It makes contacting people and the site itself a lot safer, so if you're concerned about online security this will be a great selling point.

We loved the Matchboost feature! This is a button which you press in order to appear higher up on the search results. If a member has pressed the Matchboost button then you know that they are actively looking for contacts. It also works the other way: if you're getting too many messages then don't press it. It therefore acts as a signal indicating whether or not you would like interaction from other members. It's a neat feature that could help you get in touch with many more people, therefore increasing your changes of finding friendship and love!

Love and Friends is more expensive than other websites and has a smaller membership base (in the hundreds of thousands rather than in the millions). However, it provides its members with many great features which should increase contact and help members find love. So if you like these enhanced features (and you're not broke) then you should definitely check out this site.
