Historical Personals: Because Love's Not Time's Fool.

Still looking for that special someone? The problem may be that you're not searching broadly enough. You've probably limited your search thus far to people alive in your time period. But have you ever considered dating someone from outside your immediate temporal neighborhood?

Edgar (originally from the 18th century) and Maya (orig. 21st century) met on HistoricalPersonals.com, and now live happily in Edwardian England.

Using our company's proprietary TTOIP technology (Time Travel over IP), we've helped users find love in centuries ranging from the 10th century BC to the 1970s.

Did you know that Charlemagne likes mimosas and jazz ballads? It's true! You'll get a whole new sense of human history at HistoricalPersonals.com.

So, start browsing! Flirt with Joan of Arc, or Warren G. Harding! Write a love song for Ella Fitzgerald! Ask Cotton Mather what he likes to do on a Friday night! (Watch out for Casanova, though. Don't say we didn't warn you.)
