Group Toast Celebration
Curated group dating event in London hosted by Mean It Club.

Dating events for decent human beings matched by real people.

A NO-NONSENSE  DATING CLUB  FOR GROWN ADULTS IN LONDON

For people aged 35–49 who have their life together, bring attractive energy, and are done with dating apps, pen pals, and people claiming they’re “emotionally available.”

*If you’re avoidant, inconsistent, or “seeing where things go,” maybe… don’t. Membership by invitation only.

WHAT IS THIS?

We’re not a dating app.
We’re
not a sleazy singles mixer.
We’re a
curated, small-group dating club for fairly attractive adults who can hold a decent conversation, take care of themselves, and know the difference between busy and inconsistent.

If you’re looking for normal, grounded, emotionally mature people who try - welcome.

If not, London has many other options...and apps.

AGE GROUPS

34-44

Still pretending to enjoy plans after 8pm.

40-50

More realistic about everything.

*If you’re in the middle choose your favourite decade. We are not that strict.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?

Small manually curated meet-ups (5 men, 5 women)

Balanced groups (numbers, ages, things in common, values)

People who, on paper, belong in the same room

Photo verification (no filters from 2011)

Real conversations, not speed-dating nonsense

London-based professionals who have their life together

Events in central London (Zone 1/2, nothing too painful or in Mayfair)

Zero chaos, zero creeps, zero time-wasters

Tasteful nudges when two members clearly make sense

Introductory video call

No sleazy mixer vibes 

ARE YOU ELIGIBLE?

WHO WE ACCEPT

  • People who take care of themselves

  • People who are single (truly separated, and divorced people are welcome)

  • People who can communicate like adults in fluent English

  • People with stable lives, stable moods, stable jobs and emotional intelligence

  • People who understand sarcasm

  • People who want a relationship, not just attention or validation

​​

If this sounds like you, good.
If not...genuinely, all the best.

WHO IS NOT WELCOME

Men and women who:

  • lie about age, height, or photos

  • are married, “almost separated”, or “it’s complicated”

  • are looking for a situationship

  • are not in the "right" headspace for this

  • hate the opposite gender

  • can’t hold a conversation

  • have zero humour

  • behave like walking red flags

​​

Also ghosters, avoidants, misogynists, misandrists, and anyone whose personality is “banter”.

HOW IT WORKS?

STEP 1 - APPLY
Fill out the form. Be honest. Be yourself. We will know if you aren’t.

STEP 2 - VETTING
We review your photos, answers, vibe, and general sense of being a

functioning adult.

STEP 3 - GET APPROVED
If accepted, you join the member list for your age bracket.

STEP 4 - EVENTS
You’ll be invited to curated small - group dinners/drinks with people of

opposite sex who match your energy.

STEP 5 - MEET PEOPLE WHO MEAN IT
Revolutionary, we know.

RULES OF THE CLUB

Things we didn't think we'd have to say. 

BE SINGLE

Divorced and truly separated welcome.

"It's complicated" is not a relationship status.

MAKE AN EFFORT

You don't need to be a super model. Just look like you tried.

SHOW UP

If you RSVP, you attend. Don't treat us as an option. Showing up is sexy.

COMMUNICATE

No ghosting. No vanishing. No melodramatic exits.

BE KIND

Kindness yes. Monotone boring

monologues no.

RESPECT PRIVACY

No sharing nudes. No stalking.

No weirdness. You will be banned.

HAVE HUMOUR

If dry sense of humour offends you, you'll struggle. Humour is sexy.

TRY

That's really the whole point. Being a decent human being is not that difficult.

TESTIMONIALS

To manage expectations: these might be fictional.

Calm evening, genuine conversations. I left feeling hopeful, which isn’t something I say often about dating.”

- Matt, 36 from Chelsea

“Everyone seemed genuinely interested in meeting someone. Refreshing.”

- Chris, 45 from Tooting
