Abstract

The present invention relates to a system comprising: mobile stations (MS1-MS4), and means for locating the mobile stations. To allow the users of the mobile stations to find a partner, the system further comprises: a database (2) in which information is stored about parameters determined by persons seeking a partner, and monitoring means (3) that monitor the locations of the mobile stations (MS1-MS4) used by the persons seeking a partner and transmit information indicating that a partner corresponding to the parameters has been found, provided that the mobile stations of two persons seeking a partner are located close to each other and that the parameters stored in the database (2) indicate that the persons in question are compatible.
