One of this most common complaints I hear from clients before working with a matchmaker is how awful their experiences are on dating apps. I've had amazing people tell me they spend hours a week swiping back and forth. They feel overwhelmed by them. The number of swipes directly impacts the confidence of many making them question themselves. I ask often how many conversations people are getting into before even scheduling a date. It averages 30 conversations. Unless you're responding immediately, people disappear or scheduling to meet in person gets pushed off. If the date even happens, they find they don't have as much chemistry as they expected to or they simply aren't compatible. In other cases, clients have mentioned spending weeks that turn into months playing pen pal to an internet stranger just trying to "feel them out." These are the best case scenarios. In worst case scenarios, clients have mentioned ill intentioned people after everything but their heart. Scammers. Married. Falsely representing themselves. Not only do apps become a huge time suck, they also have a very low success rate of getting people into the relationships they're looking for. If any of this resonates with your experience, a matchmaker is for you. Spend less time swiping on the apps, more time going out with likeminded singles and let your heart lead the way.
