My first appointment today is a “be back”, a lady I interviewed three months ago. She is mid 30’s, ABS (always been single), educated, her long term goal is marriage and children. She was engaged, and in a three year relationship that ended a year ago.

My first appointment today is a man, late 50’s, divorced, educated, grown kids, self employed, and his long term goal is a serious relationship, probably not marriage. He said “Marriage at this stage in life is just too complicated. Never say never, but I have found that most of the women I have met and dated don’t seem to have a problem with that. Do you think it will be a problem?”

My first appointment today is a man, mid 40’s, divorced, and his long term goal is definitely to be married. He married young and his two children are already on their own and in college. He is an empty nester for the first time and feels now it is his turn to make himself a priority.

The holidays are finally over, the kids go back to school tomorrow. It’s not really over until the kids go back to school, and most of them had three week vacations. I think two weeks of Christmas is plenty.

My first appointment this week is a man, late 50’s, highly educated, divorced, grown children, and his long term goal is “absolutely” to be married. He was married for over 30 years, he is a strong believer, and marriage is the only long term option with the right person.

Five days before Christmas and things are becoming quiet at Perfectly Matched. This is my 22nd holiday season so the pattern is very predictable. By December 19th most of my clients will wait until after the first of the year to meet someone new. The holidays can be all consuming from this point until New Years. January is usually my busiest month in business because people make New Year’s resolutions to do something about their personal life.

Last week was a very busy week at Perfectly Matched. Here are the profiles of a couple of my new clients: A lady, late 40’s, divorced, educated and just beginning to date after a long term marriage has ended. She has tried a couple of the online services but she became frustrated with the men who responded to her profile.
