Online dating is a popular way to find love and meet people you might never have come across otherwise but if you’re bored of scrolling, there’s an alternative way to meet your match.
Whether you’re outgoing or a little shy, this new way to search for love is simple and involves a ring.
Pear Ring has launched a ring that single people can wear along with their usual jewellery to highlight that they’re single.
Doing this can help a single person find another when they're spotted wearing the ring, giving them the opportunity to start a conversation and perhaps even find a connection.
TV presenter Alison Hammond was seen showing off her Pear Ring while sitting on the This Morning sofa.
Hammond showed viewers the green ring she was wearing and explained the meaning behind it.
Send this to all of your single friends. We’re gonna make fetch happen.

TV presenter Alison Hammond seen sporting Pear Ring on This Morning
Showing her ring, Hammond said: “More people are wanting to meet people out and about and having a green ring might be a good idea so that people know that you're single.
“As you can see, I've got my single ring on.”
Where can you buy a Pear Ring?
The rings are available to buy online via the Pear Ring website.
Since the first release of the rings sold out, another release has been launched.
The second release of the jewellery is “ending soon” so if you’re wanting to join the social experiment, now’s the time.
The ring is described by Pear as being the “small, subtle ring that makes a big statement”.
Available in sizes XXS to XXXL, the rings cost £19.99 each and shoppers who buy one will gain exclusive access to free events in their city and an invite to pear Fest.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
