“I have to admit I was doubtful about the match with Jim but decided to go ahead. He was interested in fishing and hunting while I am interested in opera and art galleries. The fact that he had been recently widowed also gave me pause for concern. I am so glad I accepted it. It was as if we had been old friends who had not seen each other in a few years. Unlike so many of the other first meeting where conversation was stilted and awkward we fell into and easy conversation and our first date lasted for several hours. We agreed to see each other again in a few days but by that evening as new friends on Facebook we both felt we didn’t want to wait that long. Instead we went for a drive out of town and continued to laugh and talk the entire time.

...I am only Jim’s second match while I have had many so I felt pretty sure I’d finally met the kind of guy I had been waiting for. He feels that since he lucked into the best on his second try why look any further.”

“Hi Patrice,

Three things I like about Heather are her commitment to her faith, she's very open to trying things she's never done before (adventurous), and she has a positive attitude. Her grandmother passed away the night before our second date but she didn't cancel and she was still cheerful and had a good time. She also hurt herself and didn't even complain.

Patrice did a good job of matching me with compatible people and they seemed to be genuinely interested in how everything was going.

“Megan,

Hello and thank you for the email. Jeff and I met recently. Our second date was his birthday and I took him out for it. I would like to place my membership on hold for now. I truly feel that Jeff is all that I have been seeking in a partner, best friend, and companion. He has a wonderful and fun personality, great sense of humor, treats my children as they were his own, has future goals and motivations in life, enjoys cooking, several activities that I enjoy as well, has a positive outlook on life, and seems to have the same goals that I do. I could go on, but you get the point. Thank you for all that you have done and bringing me and Jeff together.

Leslie”

“Hi Jessica,

Please place my membership on hold.
I'd like time to explore a relationship with Sandra. Sandra is beautiful. I connected to her feelings, compassion, intelligence and humor. I'm enjoying time with her, and I'm hopeful this will grow into something great.

You've been very helpful in listening to my needs and wants, and making sincere efforts to make a winning match. If Sandra is an example of your matchmaking skills, I think you're doing great.

Sincerely,
Paul”
