Very Personal

Because each of my interviews with future clients is essentially a teachable moment, keeping a diary allows my clients and others a unique perspective into the constantly evolving world of dating and relationships. By reading about what others set as their expectations and desires for their future relationships each of us is afforded the opportunity to personally reflect on what it is we want for ourselves. Enjoy!

Last week at Perfectly Matched was a very busy week and some of my new clients are: A man, late 30’s, ABS (always been single), a doctor, his long term goal is marriage and children. This is a man who is changing medicine and making the world a better place. My children, grand children, and their children will benefit from the things he is doing, and will do in years to come. Those are my words, not his. His life experiences have bought him to a place where helping others is the only thing that makes sense. He is humble, down to earth, and not materialistic. He looks for those qualities in a lady he would like to marry, and be the mother of his children. He works out every day, practices yoga, enjoys reading, tennis, running, kick boxing, the opera, museums, spending time with his friends, and traveling. He said “I am extraordinarily loyal and there are only two showstoppers for me as far as a woman is concerned, infidelity, and being mean to other people.” He is very open on his physical preferences. He said “I am open to all races, and I am not a breast, face , or butt man. I like an intelligent woman who takes care of herself, but almost anything else is negotiable.” Towards the end of the interview, he said “Donna, I am ready to sign up for your services. I have a good feel for you, and someone we both know encouraged me when I asked…

My daily diaries have been MIA for the last week. I got the awful crud that so many people have had these last few weeks and, for the first time in my life, I lost my voice. My entire day consists of being in interviews or talking on the phone. The ironic thing was by the time I lost my voice I was feeling better. I was so determined not to let it affect me that I talked until I couldn’t talk. End of story. I had to shut up to get my voice back.

My first appointment today is a man, mid 50’s, highly educated, divorced, his long term goal is marriage, and he is very open to having children. This is a man who always thought he would be a father, and although he understands that possibility may have passed him by, he would welcome the opportunity to still have that option.
