THE MIDDLE GROUND – May 23 – Lunch Actually is the largest dating agency in Singapore, which celebrates its 13th year in business this year.
Q: How has the dating scene evolved these past 13 years?
A: The perception has changed. Rather than waiting for friends to introduce potential partners to them, many singles are now turning to professional dating agencies.
