Two great people do not automatically make a great couple. And after more than two decades of matchmaking, I can tell you that this is where things get interesting. People often ask me what actually happens before I introduce two clients. Do I sit down with two profiles, compare their preferences and look for enough matching boxes? Same age range. Tick. Similar education. Tick. Both successful. Tick. Like travelling. Tick. Live relatively close to each other. Tick. Great. Off you […]
The answer is not to lower your standards. It is to become much clearer about which standards genuinely matter. Dating for successful professionals presents an unusual contradiction. The same qualities that may have helped you build a successful career or business…discernment, high standards, careful decision-making and an unwillingness to waste time…can sometimes make finding a relationship more complicated. It is understandable that many accomplished singles approach the search for a partner by creating a list. I hear the same things […]
When considering how to choose a compatible partner, what factors come to mind? Age, looks, sexual chemistry, perhaps education?

Films like The Idea of You or A Family Affair showcase romantic stories where older women date younger men, and the age gap fades into the backdrop of meaningful connections. On paper, it’s an empowering narrative. For many women, it reflects real life: confident, […]

This is the reality of dating burnout, a silent yet powerful force draining the joy out of romance and making it almost impossible to build real chemistry. But it doesn’t have to stay this way. With the right mindset and strategies, you can overcome burnout and reignite […]
Dating is meant to be fun and full of promise. However, the sting of rejection often overshadows the excitement, impacting our self-worth. In a world dominated by dating apps and rapid connections, rejection can feel intensely personal. But why does rejection in dating hurt so much, and how can we turn it into a growth opportunity rather than a roadblock? The Psychology Behind Rejection: Why It Hurts More in Dating Rejection is hard-wired into our biology. Neuroscience shows that our […]

It’s 2:07 am and I’ve been woken by a storm. I do love to listen to a good storm whilst cosy in bed but I’m keen to get back to sleep before my upcoming busy day is upon me. Then I see a notification go off on my phone and I’m too curious not to check who in the hell is reaching out to me in the middle of the night. It turns out to be someone filling out an […]
