Signed up for a matchmaking service a couple months ago after getting tired of the apps. And while I’ve been underwhelmed with their process so far, I finally have my first match date this weekend. Haven’t been on a date since pre-pandemic. And never been on a true blind date like this. Wish me luck.

Good luck Op!🙌 Please let us know how it goes. Also have been considering using matchmaking service

Best of luck!

Good luck!!
I’d love to what you think about the matchmaking service. Has it been worth it?

Good luck

I’m thinking of starting my own matchmaking services 🤷‍♂️DM me if you’d think it would be a good business idea. Honestly, the ones out there are not good and charge a lot for something that shouldn’t be that expensive.

Good luck OP!

@OP - how did it go?

Date was kinda a dud. Nothing in common.

And like I originally said, I’ve been very underwhelmed by the service. I kept getting passed around to different people in the beginning. I think they’ve finally gotten my assigned to one person now. But I’ve never talked to them. I have three absolutely non-negotiable dealbreakers. First one, they don’t even ask the question. Second, they keep glossing over and aren’t acting like it’s that important. And third, they don’t even mention when telling me about a person. Then on top of that they just give out very generic descriptions. And I know I’m not everyone’s cup of tea (I’m confident in who I am and don’t need to please everyone) but they don’t seem interested in matching me with someone I would actually be compatible with.

IjL is it’s just lunch

Hi, OP! Any update? How was it? I never had any good experience with matchmaking services so I'm curious!

31M here. Met a girl last week, 31F, and we hit it off instantly. We have so much in common and everything feels right, tomorrow will be our 3rd date. She slept over last night, no sex, but we made out all night. I haven’t felt like this for anyone in a while and it feels amazing, but I’m scared to commit. I have this fear of getting hurt or putting in effort only for it not to last.

In my opinion one of the worse things you could hear from someone when you are dating is ‘I usually don’t talk to someone like you’. It makes it seem like you are just settling for that person.
