Master Matchmakers Informative - Run Away From Them As Fast As You Can - Matchmaking Service
Matchmaking Service
I met JoAnn and one of her associates over 2 years ago. Initially, they were very professional. We met for over 2 hours and discussed the particulars of what I wanted and what I expected. They showed me lots of photos of men and JoAnn squealed "he'd be perfect" for me. Contracts were signed and we discussed distance and other details.
It took 3 months to hear from them. They matched me with someone who obviously was a couch potato (while I am very active).The associate was upset when I mentioned this. The second match was worse. He was much older, retired, and liked sedentary hobbies. While nothing is wrong with that, I am very active. He and I spoke on the phone. We agreed we had nothing in common, had different energy levels, and were probably match together only because we lived near each other. Not long after I received a call from JoAnn who told me that, basically, while she couldn't tell me to, a woman my age should seriously consider plastic surgery it because I looked at least 10 years older than I am and no one wants to date me. So, I quizzed my friends on how old they thought I looked. Mind you, my friends are professionals (doctors, lawyers, engineers, politicians, etc) and are in the public eye. Their response? "You are hot!" When I shared this fact with JoAnn she hit the roof- yelling, and telling me that how dare I question her judgment.
It took another 6 months to be matched with someone else. He was nice, but we didn't have a lot of chemistry- different politics, hobbies, etc.. The second date I went on was the same thing. I was contacted about another man and was told they would follow up, but I never heard from him, or MM again.
They still owe me a date- that was over a year ago. In the meantime, I've had countless dates from interesting, intelligent, educated and successful men who find me attractive- and ARE NOT from this awful service.
This service costs thousands and thousands of dollars. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! If you want to spend lots of money and be insulted- go to a dominatrix.

I hate the thought of people getting cosmetic surgery. One should be happy with who they are.

I would like to suggest, since you are so active, how about doing some volunteer work for an animal rescue organization, habitat for humanity or joining perhaps a some sort of sports activity, to meet people? I do volunteer work for the humane society, and it amazes me how many single men are there helping and looking to meet new people. You want to meet a guy with simliar interests like you, and who likes to be on the go.
Save your money, treat yourself to a spa day, and then look into the possiblities for meeting new people I suggested. Church also is another good place.
I know it's not easy meeting Mr. Right, but sometimes Mr. Right now may build into something lasting. Friends first, and then see what happens. You can't force love. And no matter how great someone looks from their photo, we all know a photo cannot show us what's inside that person.
Thanks for sharing your experience for others who may be considering looking into this match making service you tried and tested.
