Donna's Daily Diary ~ A peek into what happens on a daily basis at Perfectly Matched

May 14, 2013

May 15th, 2013, 6:41 pm by

My first appointment today is a lady, early 50’s, divorced, self employed, and her long term goal is marriage.

She said “I loved being married!”

I said “It surprises me how often people who are divorced say they loved being married. I always have to ask, then why are you divorced?”

She said “We were junior high sweethearts, and together all that time until we divorced a few years ago. Things changed as we had kids, and went through all the ups and downs. Most of my marriage was good for many years, but it got to the point that I knew it wasn’t right for me anymore, and he agreed he felt the same way.”

 

She has had a couple of relationships since being divorced. A friend of hers who met a lady through Perfectly Matched has been encouraging her to call me.

She said “I finally decided to give you a call because I see how happy he has been with the lady you matched him with three years ago.”

 

When I asked her about her interests and activities she said “This is 100% important, he must like to ride motorcycles.”

I said “I can certainly focus on that, but are you going to eliminate every man who does not have a motorcycle?”

She said “Riding is my passion, and what I do whenever I can. If someone doesn’t ride, we won’t be spending much time together. He has to be at least willing to consider getting a motorcycle if he doesn’t have one.”

She also loves concerts and has a desire to travel to new places.

 

She said “I should also tell you I am attracted to bad boys.”

I said “Be careful what you ask for.”

She said “I like the rugged look and I like a man who won’t let me walk all over him.”

I said “Should I assume a “bad boy” would treat you badly?”

She said “No, I don’t want that. How about a “naughty boy?”

I said “I get it, no wimps.”

She said “I also like a man who is stocky, but not fat. Someone who is kind of beefy, and I LOVE bald.”

I immediately thought of a client who has a Harley.

 

 

He may not qualify as a bad boy, but he is certainly not a wimp.

 

 

My second appointment is a man, late 60’s, divorced, educated, and he is not sure about his long term goal. He knows he wants a serious committed relationship, but he is unsure about getting married.

He was reluctant to take the profile test and said he wanted to talk with me first.

I said “We can certainly do that, but I usually start all my interviews by telling you what your scores from this test tell me about you.”

He agreed to take the test and he was very surprised by how much I knew about him based on a 46 question test.

 

He has only been divorced once and he prefers to meet ladies who have only been divorced once.

I said “I would encourage you not to limit yourself to meeting ladies who have only one divorce. It only takes one person to want a divorce, they may have had no choice, and in this age range it is not uncommon for someone to be divorced twice.”

 

I was explaining the matching process in that I suggest my clients meet for one hour, not lunch or dinner, and at the end of the meeting they both call with their feedback.

He said “I would rather do lunch or dinner and I don’t understand why the two of us cannot just decide whether or not we want to get together again.”

I said “The feedback from you and on you is what makes this process become more focused and fine tuned, and allows me to get to know you better so I can better match you. Also, some people find it uncomfortable to commit to getting together again on the spot, especially if they are not interested.”

He said “Do all of your clients follow your rules?’

I said “No, only the ones who understand they are paying a professional for a better way to meet the right person.”

He laughed and said “You’re pretty sure of yourself.”

I said “I am sure this works better if you do it the way it is set up to work.”

 

He said he wanted to think about whether or not this is something he wants to do.

 

After he left my office he called and asked me if I would test someone for him.

He said “I can see how it would be helpful to know how someone’s scores would compare with mine.”

I said “I am always happy to test someone my clients meet on their own.”

He said “Do I have to be a client for you to do it?”

I said “No, but do you think you might be a client?”

He said “Maybe, I like your test.”

 

Baby steps.

May 7, 2013

May 7th, 2013, 10:10 pm by

My first appointment today is a lady who prefers I not mention her age.

She said “No one knows my age but you said you were going to verify my driver’s license when I came in for the interview.”

Let’s just say most people would guess her to be at least 15 years younger than her age.

She said “I don’t want to date men in my own age range because they can’t do the things I like to do.”

I said “Like what?”

She said “Sex.”

To say this was an interesting interview would be an understatement.

 

I said “You are at an age where most people would have retired a dozen years ago but you are working fulltime. When do you plan to retire?”

She said “When I drop dead. I love my work, and it keeps me alive and engaged. I have friends who retired and their minds seem to go to mush.”

 

She is very financially secure but she is not looking for a man with as much money as her.

She said “If he can pick up the check for a couple of meals here and there and pay for his part on a trip, that’s enough for me. I have all the money I need. I don’t need or want his money but I don’t want to be supporting him.”

 

She has a pilot’s license, she horseback rides, loves to dance, just started swimming lessons, works out regularly, enjoys theaters, concerts and wants to join a car club.

She would also enjoy traveling with a special someone and she likes to go to Vegas once a year.

 

Her last relationship lasted over 20 years and when it ended she decided there were three things she was going to do; buy a sports car, which she already has done, take swimming lessons, which she has started, and get a Lifestyle facelift, which she has scheduled.

 

I asked her what was physically important to her as far as a man is concerned.

She said “I don’t like beards, no missing teeth, 5’5 is tall enough, and he has to be able to fit into my sports car.”

 

Of all the people I have interviewed in 25 years, I would have to put her in the top three as far as being unique and special.

I now have the interesting challenge of matching her.

 

 

My second appointment is a man, early 50’s, divorced, educated, his long term goal is a serious relationship, and he would consider marriage. His relationship history includes just two women and he married both of them. He had one brief relationship when his second marriage ended. A friend of his who interviewed with me over ten years ago, but did not become a client, referred him to me.

 

He said “She told me you talked to her about men who sounded like great matches for her after just knowing her for fifteen minutes after she took your test.”

I said “Why didn’t she become a client?”

He said “The timing wasn’t right but she highly recommended you to me.”

 

He enjoys hiking, biking, movies, downhill skiing, music, loves the outdoors, and he is a volunteer firefighter.

He said “I used to hunt but I don’t do it much anymore. I did it more for the camaraderie with my friends than anything else. I never enjoyed sleeping on the hard ground in a sleeping blanket. I really wasn’t into killing an animal and most the time I would get them in my sights and go “shoo, run away.”

 

He said  “ If someone wants to know something about me they just have to ask and I will tell them the truth. It’s like wearing an open kimono. I just open up and say here it is.” That gave a visual that hung in my head for a few minutes.

 

He is a very nice guy, a great dad, loves his job, and will make a great partner for a lady who appreciates a man who is ready, willing and able to make her a priority in his life.

 

 

My third appointment is a client coming in to reconnect. She is early 60’s, highly educated, divorced, her long term goal is a serious, committed relationship, probably not marriage.

She said “I am in a really good place to meet the right man. When I first met with you I had a new job that was very stressful for a couple of years. That is all under control now and I find myself longing for a companion to share my life. I recently dated someone I thought had potential and, although it did not work out, it reminded me how much fun it is to get dressed up, go out and enjoy a man’s company and conversation.”

When we talked about her age preference she said “I like your recommendation of five years either way of my own age, that puts us in the same decade.”

I said “Men in this age range very often prefer to meet younger women.”

She said “I know, but they are missing the boat and they still have to go through menopause with them. They will be sleeping with someone who is sweaty, pulls the covers off and on, is irritable and has mood swings. I sleep quietly and comfortably.”

 

She has a point.

My first appointment today is a man, mid 30’s, ABS, (always been single), educated, his long term goal is marriage and children. Although he has always been single, he had a relationship for two years. They disconnected, then reconnected and the relationship lasted five more years. It has been over for a few years, and he has dated quite a few ladies, but no one who had marriage potential.

 

He said “Nothing else I have done so far has led me to the type of woman I want to marry. I thought I should give you a call and see what you have to offer.”

 

He works out five times a week, hikes, bikes, and does the Incline. He enjoys basketball, football, baseball, likes musicals, concerts, and music is a very important part of his life. He also enjoys the local events like Spring Spree, the Art Walks, and loves road trips. He would like to travel internationally with someone special.

 

He is a strong believer and would want to meet someone who shares his faith and would enjoy going to church.

 

He needs couple of weeks to get adjusted to a new job, and plans to give me a call and get started with Perfectly Matched.

 

He said “I am tired of spinning my wheels and I am very impressed with the ladies you spoke to me about today. I WILL be back.”

 

 

My second appointment is a man, mid 40’s, educated, widowed, his long term goal is a serious, monogamous relationship, he can go either way as far as getting married.

 

He said “I don’t personally feel the need to be married but If I was in love with someone who needed that in order to feel our relationship was complete, I would be fine with getting married.”

 

He is about to be an empty nester when his second child goes off to college this fall.

He said “I have been through a lot in the last few years and now it feels like everything is falling in place. My kids are doing great and I am ready to meet someone special, but I am not ready to jump into anything too quickly. I want to take my time and get to know someone.

I said “You waited a few years and have had only one relationship since you have been widowed. You should date, have fun, make friends, and explore your options.”

He said “That’s exactly what I want to do.”

 

He has a great job, is very bright, charming, quick to smile (and he has a beautiful smile), light hearted and down to earth.

He enjoys golf…a lot! He plays volleyball, goes to Vegas one a year, mountain bikes, hikes, and likes live music and concerts.

 

He is very open on his preferences and will meet ladies from 38 to 51. His height preference is 5’ to 6’2.

I said “So you don’t mind if a lady is a little taller than you.”

He said “Heck no, if they don’t mind I am a little shorter than them.”

 

Although he is about to be an empty nester, he does not mind a lady who still has kids at home.

He said “I love kids, but I would hope to meet someone who does not have a lot of tension with her ex-husband.”

 

He invested in my largest program.

He said “I am looking so forward to doing this with your help. I know it’s going to be fun?”

 

Yes, it will. I have some great matches for him.

 

 

My third appointment is a lady, mid 50’s, divorced, highly educated, and her long term goal is marriage.

She was a client from 2007 to 2012 but she was traveling all over the world with her job. She is back in Colorado Springs to stay and will not be traveling anymore except for fun and pleasure. She definitely wants to continue to travel internationally and would love to do it with someone special.

 

She said “I feel so free to do what I want, and I am in a financial position to relax and only do what I want to do. I will still do some consulting, but it will be at my discretion, and on my terms.”

 

She has a strong desire to give back by volunteering, and getting involved with humanitarian pursuits.

 

She said “I have been traveling so much I really want to reconnect with the community and develop a network of friends. I would love to meet a man who has family and a network of friends.”

 

She is in a very different place than she was when I previously worked with her and I am excited that she has decided to become a client again.

 

Summer is just around the corner and love is in the air. I can feel the energy from the people who come in to meet with me. It is a great time to share with someone special all that Colorado has to offer outdoors during the summer and, of course, I think it’s always a great time to fall in love. You should call for your no obligation interview and see who might be waiting for you at Perfectly Matched!

This is how Perfectly Matched works:

 

All my matches start with six scores (which are on a scale of “0” to “10”) from the profile test; your level of Temperament, how easy going, or not easy going you are, Sociability, Conformity, Affection, Religion and Finance. I look to match you with someone who has scores as close to yours as possible, except for the temperament score. Two people low in temperament will butt heads and fight, and two people too easy going don’t address the issues. Opposites in temperament can balance each other out.

 

Similar long term goals, that the couple wants the same thing out of a relationship; marriage, children, living together, or maintaining separate residences.

 

Shared interests and activities, most people feel it is important to share some or many of their interests and activities.

 

I pay attention to the issues like smoking, drinking, kids, pets, education, income, intellectual compatibility, and of course, physical attraction.

What I do at Perfectly Matched is opposite of what you do on your own. I start with the things that matter, and then add the mutual physical attraction. When my clients meet and there is a mutual physical attraction, there is so much more potential for success in a relationship.

 

This is the information I share when I make a match:

 

As far as physical aspects; age, height, weight, color of hair and eyes, clean shaven, or facial hair.

 

Background information includes:

 

Where the person was born and raised.

How many siblings they have, and where they fall in the birth order. Where their siblings and parents live and whether or not they have a close relationship with them.

If anyone else lives with them.

What kind of pets they have and whether or not they will meet someone who has pets.

How many children they have and what kind of schedule the children have with themselves and the other parent.

Where they work, how long they have worked there, what hours they work, whether or not they travel with their job.

If they own their home, or rent.

I do not share income but I know what their income is and I look to match them with someone on a compatible income level.

Their level of education.

Their religion, if they go to church, where they go to church, how often they go to church, and what faiths they are open to meeting.

My clients complete an activity survey but I also share the interests and activities they mention to me in the interview that are especially important to them.

I ask my clients to take home complete an Ideal Relationship and Special Moments form. In their own words they write about what an Ideal Relationship would be for them, and the Special Moments of their life that have been important. I share that information with everyone I match them with.

I take a picture which is mostly for my reference, but I am not opposed to showing pictures under certain circumstances.

If a client perfers I not share some information I normally share, I do not share it.

 

A match is made when both clients agree through the information I share with them that they would like to meet.

The man calls the woman to set up a time and place to meet. I suggest they keep the first phone call brief, it is just to set up the meeting and those conversations can go very differently when a couple meets and knows what kind of chemistry and attraction they have for each other.

They meet on neutral territory and agree to spend an hour together. I do not recommend lunch or dinner, they usually meet for a cup of coffee.

At the end of the meeting they agree to call me with their feedback.

I share the feedback with each of them and it is decided if there is enough interest to get together a second time.

The feedback is what makes the process work. I truly get to know my clients, and when you are thinking about it, talking about it, and hearing what the other person has to say, it almost forces you to become more focused and fine tuned.

 

I continue to match a client until they meet someone they have an interest to pursue one on one. At their request, I put them “On Hold” and we see what happens.

If it works out, great, I have done my job. If not, when they are emotionally available I start matching them again.

 

There is no time frame on my service. You purchase a certain number of matches and however long it takes you to meet that number of matches is how long we would work together.

 

The advantages of Perfectly Matched are:

 

I do all the work. I use 25 years of matchmaking experience to put together quality, compatible matches. I do more coaching and counseling than I do matchmaking to help my clients meet, date, and navigate relationships more effectively.

 

I know when I meet with you how many matches I have for you and I share information with you on at least a couple of those matches.

 

Your information is totally confidential. I do not put any of your information on a computer. I make all the matches by hand. I do not have anyone who works for me or with me.

 

You meet serious minded people. Anyone can go on the internet, but not everyone is going to make the financial and emotional investment to join Perfectly Matched. You are allowing me to be involved as a third party and there is no game playing.

 

You sign a contract that gives me permission to do a background check, and also states if you give me any false information, I can cancel your membership and keep your money.

 

I don’t give up! There is someone for everyone and I believe your odds of meeting the right person at Perfectly Matched are so much greater than on your own.

 

The bottom line is, it only takes ONE right one.

 

Call 260-1000 today for you no obligation interview and let’s see how many matches I have for YOU!!!

May 1st, 2013, 2:24 pm by

My first appointment today is a lady, early 30’s, ABS, educated, her long term goal is marriage and children.

She said “I have a friend who met and married her husband through Perfectly Matched and she has been encouraging  me to call you. I am not sure this is for me, but I told her I would meet with you.”

I said “I remember your friend because when they got engaged they stopped by to tell me and show me her engagement ring, which was a cigar band.”

She laughed and said “They are both very frugal, that’s something they definitely have in common.”

 

She has been meeting men online and has not been successful in meeting anyone who has long term potential.

She said “Many of the men I met paid no attention to my profile and the things I said were important to me. I adjusted my profile to be more direct about my preferences, and it made no difference. I think they just look at my picture and disregard everything else.”

 

She was very clear with me on what her preferences are:  Caucasian, 30 to 40, at least 5’9, someone who has never been married, has no kids, wants to be married and have kids, a fairly strong believer, would enjoy going to church with her, has a good relationship with his family, has friends, takes care of himself, not overweight, eats healthy, exercises, has a job he enjoys, makes at least 60K a year, financially responsible, is educated, not into the bar scene, light social drinker, likes pets, enjoys the outdoors, is happy with his life, and not a smoker.

 

I said “Except for the height, do you realize you just described yourself?”

She said “Someone like me would be just fine, but I thought opposites attract.”

I said “They do attract, they don’t work. It really goes back to someone as much like yourself as possible, except for the temperament score. Two people low in temperament will butt heads and fight, and two people too easy going don’t address the issues, so opposites in temperament balance each other out.”

 

I talked to her about four men I think are good matches for her and she was surprised I could pull out profiles of men with “scores” so close to hers. Men who met all, or almost all, of her preferences.

She said “But what about physical attraction. I have to be attracted to him.”

I said “I know the physical attraction has to be there, and it has to be mutual. He has to be attracted to you as well. When the physical attraction is mutual, there is so much more potential for success because all the other things that are important to you, and him, have already been plugged in.”

 

She said “I told my friend I would call her after I met with you and I want to think about this for a couple of days.”

I said “Fine, if you decide to pursue this, I need about another fifteen minutes of your time to go over the agreement, and take your picture.”

She said “Ok, I will call you tomorrow and don’t match Josh with anyone else until I call you back.”

 

I think she will definitely be back.

 

 

My second appointment is a man coming in to reconnect with me after having been inactive for two years. He met someone on his own and they dated for a little over a year. Whenever my clients meet someone on their own, I volunteer to send them the profile test and see how their scores compare.

 

He said “I have more respect for the scores now because you told me I was much more budget minded than her and she was much lower in affection than I am. Those are the two areas where we had problems. She spent money she did not have, and then she wanted to spend mine. The intimacy started to fade after the first three months and went downhill from there. This time I am going to pay more attention to the scores.”

 

Good idea!

April 25, 2013

April 26th, 2013, 9:29 pm by

My first appointment today is a lady, 50, divorced, educated, and her long term goal is a serious long term relationship, possibly marriage. She has two children and she has been a stay at home mom since they were born.

She is very athletic, participates in many sports, and volunteers for several organizations.

 

She said “My children are my first priority and any man in my life is going to have to respect that they come first, and always will. I have great kids and I am always mindful of setting a good example for them.”

She goes skiing, hiking, biking, rollerblading, camping and takes road trips with the kids. They have traveled all over the US and Europe. She also plays golf, tennis, and considers herself a very competitive person.

 

When I asked her what income would be compatible with her as far as a man is concerned, she said “I am a one percenter and he should be a one percenter too.

I said “What do you mean when you say one percenter?”

She said “My income is in the top one percent of the people in the country which means we make most of the money and pay most of the taxes.”

I said “I cannot recall anyone telling me they need someone who is a one percenter. What kind of income would that be?”

He needs to be very wealthy, or he will probably be intimidated by my lifestyle.”

I said “What minimum income level would that be?”

I never did get a number so I guess I will have to go with what I think very wealthy would be for her.

 

She wants a man who is at least 5’11, very fit, and she prefers clean shaven.

 

She said when she was driving to see me she was thinking “I can’t believe I am doing this, it’s all too much trouble.”

She is a nice lady with a lot to offer to a relationship but my options for her are very limited because of her preferences.

She is going to “think about it” and get back to me. My gut feeling is she will decide it is too much trouble.

 

 

 

My second appointment is a man, early 40’s, ABS, educated, and his long term goal is marriage and children.

He said “I would like to meet a lady who wants to adopt children. There are so many kids that need parents and I have been seriously thinking about adoption even if I don’t get married.”

Women have said that to me before, but this is the first time I have ever had a man say he plans to adopt even without a partner.

He said “I have great parents and I have a strong desire to have that life experience.”

 

He is very smart, fit, active, and enjoys hiking, camping, skiing, traveling, reading, and building things with his hands. He has a cabin that has been a work in progress for a few years.

He said “I keep adding and changing and coming up with new ideas. My friends have started referring to my little cabin in the woods as “The Mini Broadmoor.”

 

His age preference for a lady is 30 to 50, as long as she wants to adopt children. He is totally open on race, height, education, and the only nonnegotiable is smoking.

He is fine with a lady who has children as long as there is no drama with the ex-husband.

 

He said “Donna, I don’t want this to sound like it’s all about adopting kids.  I would much rather raise a child or children in a loving home with two parents. Finding the right lady to share my life with is equally important. I want to raise awesome kids with an awesome wife. That would be my dream come true.”

 

I plan to do everything I can to help him make his dream come true.

April 23rd, 2013, 9:49 pm by

My first appointment today is a man, late 40’s, divorced, highly educated, and his long term goal is marriage.

He said “Does anyone want to get married anymore? I keep meeting ladies who are so ambivalent about what they want in a relationship.”

I said “Marriage is not the preferred option anymore, especially for people who have been divorced once or twice already.”

He has been divorced one time and just started dating a few months ago.

 

He said “Being single today is so different than it was 25 years ago. I did the online dating and it was like having a part time job. I spent hours on the computer, and eventually met a few ladies but it was a total waste of time. One lady I was interested in said she wanted to get together again but she never returned my calls. Another lady I was interested in told me on our second date that she met someone else she was more interested in. It’s like everyone thinks the grass is always greener on the other side, and it made me feel very disposable.” 

I said “There is a lot of game playing on the internet, that doesn’t happen here because I am involved as a third party. You also meet more serious minded ladies at Perfectly Matched and I do all the work.”

 

He said “I want to meet a lady who knows she wants to be married. I loved being married.”

I said “Why did your marriage end?”

He said “She met someone on the internet.”

 

He is an old fashion guy, traditional, conservative, religious, and a lady who is compatible with him would probably also want to be married.

He was surprised when I pulled up files of ladies whose “scores” were the same as his, or very close.

He said “I like your test. I like that you use these scores to make matches. It makes so much more sense that I will meet someone who thinks much the same as me in these important areas of compatibility.”

 

There are ladies who still see marriage as the ultimate long term goal, and those are the ladies I will be introducing to him.

 

 

Feedback today from a lady who has decided that she is very interested in a man I introduced to her a few weeks ago. Initially she was not sure he was someone she thought had long term potential. After several more dates, she has decided she is so comfortable with him, enjoys the time she spends with him, looks forward to seeing him, and misses him when she is away from him, she wants me to put her “on hold”. “ On hold” means she does not want to meet anyone else right now. I saw this one coming from a mile away. He is a perfect match for her and I am very happy to put her “on hold”. I am also very happy for him because he is a great guy, and has hung in there for the last year that we have worked together. It only takes one right one!

My first appointment today is a man, late 50’s, self employed, grown children, his long term goal is a serious, monogamous, relationship, with a big question mark as far as marriage is concerned.

He said “I have been married twice and, never say never, but it would take a very special lady for me to consider marriage again.”

 

He is a little rough around the edges, and just tells it like it is. No pussy footing around with this fellow.

He said “I looked at the dating services on the internet and knew I wasn’t going to go through all that crap to meet someone.”

He saw my ad on the wall in a restroom and he had to tease me about it.

He said “You have to have a lot of balls to put your picture and phone number on a bathroom wall.”

I said “After referral business, that is my next best source on new leads, so I endure the teasing.”

 

He enjoys movies, dining out, hiking, biking, walking, and occasionally, a concert or going to the theater. He mentioned Miss Saigon and Phantom of the Opera as two productions he especially liked.

He enjoys traveling, and would love to travel more with someone special. He has been to Russia, London, Paris, Rome and China.

 

When I asked him what was important to him physically as far as a lady is concerned, he said “As long as she has her carcass in good shape, I don’t mind someone who is a little overweight.”

 

I showed him my fee list and he said “Donna, you’re killing me here. Let me think about it for a couple of days.”

I said “Ok.”

He said “What the hell, let’s do it now.”

 

He is good looking, has a dry sense of humor, and in spite of his cockiness, he is a little shy. 

I have some great matches for him because he is very open on his preferences and I already have his first match arranged.

 

 

My second appointment is a lady, mid 30’s, ABS, educated, self employed, her long term goal is marriage and children. In addition to owning her own business, she is a part time musician.

She said “My music and songwriting are very important to me, but it also puts me in an environment where I often date other musicians. I also often end up supporting them financially and dating men much younger than myself. They are not ready to settle down and have kids, and that’s why I am sitting here talking to you.”

 

She is a “5” in temperament, direct and straight forward. When I read her the “Ideal Relationships” of men I thought were good matches for her, she definitely has opinions about what does, or does not, work for her.

The “Ideal Relationship” is a paragraph or two that I ask each client to put into their own words what an ideal relationship would be for them.

I read her one man’s ideal relationship and she responded very positively.

She said “I love that his degree is in social work and he wants to work with kids. I can also see myself going to China to teach young kids.”

As I was reading another man’s ideal relationship she said “I can tell you for sure he would not be someone I would want to meet. He sounds too serious and boring.”

 

One of the reasons she moved to Colorado was to enjoy the outdoors. She loves mountain climbing, hiking, camping and backpacking. She also has an interest to continue to travel. She has been to Central America, Bezel, Honduras, and likes the third world countries. She backpacked through Central America by herself.

 

She said “I am probably not going to be compatible with someone  who is into math or science or sports. I plan to be a humanitarian when I retire.”

 

With her five inch platform shoes on today she is 6’1 but she said the best relationship she ever had was with a man who was 5”8.

Obviously, not everyone who comes to see me is beautiful. I had a client comment that it seems like every time I write about a new client they are good looking, beautiful, or very attractive. I work with all kinds of people with many different levels of attraction and I try to be accurate in how I describe them. This young lady is very possibly one of the most beautiful ladies I have ever met. She looks like a Victoria Secret model, and I don’t feel I am exaggerating one bit. She, however, does not feel she needs to be matched with a gorgeous man.

She said “You would be surprised the type of men I have been attracted to. I like the scruffy, Lyle Lovett look.”

 

She did not make the commit to join today because she always takes some time when considering a major purchase.

She said “I will call you next week and I feel very confident that we will be working together.”

 

So do I.
