Introduction:

Welcome to OxfordRomance.org.uk, a free chat and romance site set up specifically for members of Oxford University. It's philanthropic: we do this purely for the satisfaction of making people happy, and we are delighted when we succeed. Of course, there is no charge, no 'data-mining', no advertising, no 'premium features', and we respect your privacy. To see what we have to offer, please take a look at some of the profiles, browse the menu on the left-hand side, and sign up below. Enjoy!

We're serious about doing the right and ethical thing, to act in the best interests of our members. For full details, please read the help text. Your questions and suggestions are always welcome.

We do not consider our membership to be an advertising demographic!

Join us, for free:

Not a member yet? Registration is simple and free:

Nickname:  
This will be your username on OxfordRomance.
Your nickname is the name that other members of the site will see and use to identify you: once chosen your nickname cannot be changed.

We recommend that you choose a pseudonym (or your firstname), but not your full real name.

Please avoid names which other members might find offensive.
Email:  
Please give your university email address.
Please give a full email address at which you can be contacted. This e-mail address will not be disclosed to other members.

You must be a member of Oxford University to join, so we ask you to use your email address that ends in '.ox.ac.uk'.
 
Obligatory Legal bit:
Please do actually read these; they're quite short and friendly!
I am:
Everyone is welcome here. If the heteronormative default is inappropriate for you, please choose the nearest match, then elaborate within your profile.

[This is too complex for a tooltip: please see the FAQ on 'signing up'.]

If you need help, please contact us.


Successes:

bacardiandlime writes: "I have already (in 2 days!!) met 2 or 3 nice seeming people who I will keep emailing."

Mark met Jessica on RUO: "She had a nice profile picture with a big smile and she liked the same sports as me. We decided to meet up. She was lovely, smart and great fun to be around. She has really been great for me."

This is one of the many happy outcomes to which we have contributed.  :-)

8th October 2014: The Freshers' Fair is this week (Wed-Fri). Do come to say hello. Volunteers who can help out would be extremely welcome!
7th October 2014: Welcome to a new term! And, to our new members, a particularly warm welcome: we hope we help you find love :-) If you would like to get involved with the society, and with running events, please contact OxfordRomance President, Abbas.
As it's the start of a new year, it may take a short time to get going: in particular, if you are a new member, please do take a moment to write a little about yourself... otherwise everyone waits for everyone else to make the first move!
12th May 2014: We have just received a (significant) amount of sponsorship. So, we'd like to recruit a membership, publicity and marketing cherub to the Oxrom committee. The funding is sufficient to cover design and distribution of posters/flyers etc and any more imaginative ideas that occur to you. There is also some funding to cover your time. If you're interested, please contact Cupid.
16th November 2012: A big thank you to all who came speed dating - you raised £98 for Students Supporting Street Kids! Keep a look out for more exciting events coming up in Hilary term... and if you'd like to get more involved or just have some great ideas feel free to drop us a line :)
10th October 2012: Welcome to all our new members from the Freshers' Fair. Have fun!
Also, we've changed the default style to the "claret" theme... please send feedback to Cupid if you spot any problems. (If you prefer the old one, you can change it back on your settings page).
