You are probably wondering how we came up with the idea of Milojee (Milojee means to 'meet'). It was actually quite simple. Our view was that in today's world, it was almost impossible to juggle our daily lives, in particular work and find time to meet new people. To test this, we conducted our own research amongst the UK population. We found that majority of individuals had four reasons for meeting new people. Let's look at each one.
Dating: This was interesting. The general consensus was the amount of introductions you can receive from friends is limited. Once the list is exhausted you are pretty much at a loose end. There is also a stigma attached that dating should lead to marriage. We found that majority of people wanted to go on a more casual date, a less formal setting. It was almost like friends getting to know each other more which may possibly develop into a relationship (no strings attached).
Friendship: There are only so many interesting people you can meet at parties, clubs, bars and family networks. Ok let's be honest, you can be a real social butterfly and get on with lots of people, but how many are really true friends. We found that almost everyone wanted to make new friends but often had time constraints or did know how to go about it the right way.
Networking: People's definition for networking was different. For some it meant hanging out with a group of friends, for others it meant attending networking events such as charity balls or professional parties. There were others who classified it as meeting other people in the same line of work to seek career advice. It's a broad concept but most people found they did not know how to network. The key question raised was 'how do we find out about such events'?
Marriage: Now this was the real challenge. Our research showed the problems people found in meeting the perfect person. It became apparent (rather quickly) that finding the right partner was as likely as winning the national lottery. The issues varied from personality clashes to appearance differences. Phrases such as 'there is no attraction', 'too short', 'too tall', 'not the right background', 'not ambitious' were all too common. I am sure you have heard them all before.
Milojee Response
Knowing all this (it was a lot to take in at the time) we decided to develop a site to include all 4 themes, dating, friendship, networking, and marriage. We wanted to give people choices and develop an on-line community making it extremely easy for people to make contact with one another. Why not upload your profile and search our database for other people whom you would like to meet? Alternatively, you can just view our events page and decide which event to attend. It's that easy and its all for FREE. Our aim is to give you as many choices as possible for you to meet someone (whatever your intention).
After all, this is Milojee...
