"My matchmaker is kind and a great listener. I feel she has worked
hard to hone in on what I'm looking for in a partner and find that
person that matches up to those values and is truly compatible
with me. Our feedback sessions are very interactive and she often
helps me reflect on and talk out what's on my heart. So far, she's
made this dating process fun and more stress-free!" -Sally in San Francisco, CA |
"She has chosen wonderful matches, and requires very little input
from me. She has removed a great deal of the stress of dating;
even during the pandemic!" -Richard in Altlanta, GA |
"They work very hard to help define needs & wants. They are
patient and respond well to changing schedules. Interviews are
thorough and I appreciate their hard work!" -Joseph in Austin, TX |
"I haven't even had my 2nd date yet, but it's clear that my
matchmaker has taken the effort to get to know me and my
preferences in partner, which has allowed her to pair me with
women that I have a high probability of vibing with. I was on the
fence on whether to hire a matchmaker, but the quality of my first
date has made me feel confident in my decision to take a leap of
faith!" -Jennifer in NYC |
