Sherry & David

"The first time we talked on the phone I felt like we had been friends for years but had been apart."

A woman is in a local karaoke bar hoping to find a little happiness. Her marriage is going through a ruff patch and she needs some inspiration. While listening to the local armatures belting out Barry Manilow hits, she sees a happy couple sitting together. They look like they have never been apart a day in their lives. Seeing their contentment with each other’s company, she can’t stop herself from going over and speaking to them. “I just want you two to know that seeing the two of you together gives me hope for my marriage.” To which Sherry replies “Well, he has not asked me yet!”

When Sherry was preparing for her first “The Right One” match, she was terribly nervous. It had been more than 17 years since she was in the dating scene. Feeling that she should warn her match of her overwhelming nervousness, she gave David a call. “Are you nervous because I am?” David still reminds Sherry of that call. “The first time we talked on the phone I felt like we had been friends for years but had been apart” said David.

The couple met at a TGI Fridays. Sherry dressed in head to toe pink and looked for a man she never met before. After a search through the restaurant she turned around and there was David with roses and a wooden cross that he had made himself. Sherry turned pinker than her outfit. The couple dined together for two and a half hours. They discovered that they had so much in common that it was entering the realm of being scary.  The date went so well that David immediately asked Sherry out on another date. Of course Sherry said yes but she already had planned for David to come back to her house that evening to play board games. The evening was a great success and did not end until 1am.

When David returned home, Patches (his Chihuahua) was not pleased with him and let him know it in liquid form right on his foot. Thankfully Sherry, who has pets herself, wanted to make peace with Patches. Both David and Patches came over for a spaghetti dinner. Eventually Patches came around and now is more Sherry’s dog than David’s. Patches knew the relationship was meant to be. She’s a smart little dog.

It did not take long for David and Sherry to know they wanted to get married. Over the course of only a few months the couple fell in love and got engaged. A special trip to see Sherry’s mother was planned and together the couple asked for her blessing. Sherry’s mother was very pleased to give it and to her surprise David dropped down on one knee and proposed right there.

The wedding is set for May and the couple is planning for a special wedding in which all their grown children (Sherry has three boys and David has one girl) will play a part. David’s friends would often tease him about pampering Sherry. He feels so strongly about it that he included it in his wedding vows “I promise to protect, defend, and pamper you.”

When David moved his things into Sherry house, it did get a little confusing. The couple is so well matched that even their furniture styles were the same. They could not tell what belonged to whom? Fortunately after Sherry’s kids moved out they had plenty of rooms.

David and Sherry are both spiritual people. They are both an answer to each other’s prayer. Sherry told David “God knew I needed you.”
While planning her wedding Sherry found the perfect song to walk down the aisle to. “God Knew I Needed You” of course. The couple is proof positive that prayers are heard. They look forward to a long life together and lots of traveling.

Dianna & Ron

While Dianna was driving down the road on the way to work she saw a sign. It was there every day but this day she took a good look. It was a sign for “The Right One” dating. Dianna had raised three great children and now that they are happy and on their own she thought maybe she would look for her own happiness. After all she deserved it.

She called the number on the sign and went in to the local office. She instantly like what she saw “The gal I spoke with was funny and happy. She made me feel comfortable there.” Dianna took the test, filled out the forms, and in two weeks was on her first date. On her second match she met Ron.

Ron was on his first match with “The Right One” dating. He wanted to pick a place that he was very comfortable at and had lots of people so his date would be able to mingle if she wanted to. Since the Holidays were approaching Ron chose the office Christmas Party. The date was a great success and Ron decided to ask Dianna out again.

As the couple began dating exclusively they discovered how well matched they actually were. They enjoyed doing the same things and got along extremely well. “We just agree on everything.” Their favorite thing to do was just enjoying each others company. “We spend a lot of time talking.” One of the things that Dianna loves about Ron is the fact that he is so soft spoken and kind in his words.

Ron and Dianna Plan to take their love to the next level. A wedding is planned for October to coincide with Ron’s sixtieth birthday. Dianna is anxiously waiting for the official proposal. Since Ron makes it a habit to have flowers delivered to Dianna often no doubt it will be an unforgettable and romantic occasion.
The couple spends a lot of their time now shopping for a new townhouse to share, getting Ron’s house ready to go on the market, and working full time. With all that’s going on most couples would a least have a few arguments. But since they are so well suited things have been smooth and making time to be together is easy when you are with the right one.

Melissa & Mike

Melissa_and_mike ”There is no way that Mike and I would have met without Together, because we lived 40 miles away from each other. We’re totally different. Our backgrounds are different. Our paths would never have crossed.”

Melissa, how was your dating life before you joined Together Dating?
We’ve been together for a little over a year, and I was single for about two and a half years before I met him. I have to tell you that this is the first time that I’m going to be married, at 53. I was engaged previously, and my fiancé passed away suddenly. I had never online dated. How I had met people in my life was blind dates through friends. And I had a lot of really bad blind dates.

Were you initially skeptical of matchmakers & dating sites?
I never thought that I would try this. Every time I tell someone about how we met, that it was through a dating service, everyone I talk to has some story about meeting someone this way, via a matchmaking service or an online site. But online dating was not for me because I never really trusted it as a safe way to meet people.

What inspired you to try Together Dating?
I heard about someone who had joined Together and had met her husband. A friend of a friend, I never actually met this person but I heard about her, and that’s why I tried it.

How did you like working with them?
I loved the person who I worked with, Jill. She’s extremely intellectual. She inspired me to think in ways that I had not thought before. There was one thing that she pointed out to me. She was very gentle about it, but perhaps thought that I was going in the wrong direction - she was amazing. There is no way that Mike and I would have met without her, because we lived 40 miles away from each other. We’re totally different. Our backgrounds are different. Our paths would never have crossed.

How does the process work?
You go to their office and fill out all of these forms, and they are very enthusiastic. You leave feeling extremely excited that this is going to work immediately. And it took a little bit of time. Actually, for me, it took joining at a VIP level, where I actually had a person working for me, like a personal shopper. Jill was like an old fashioned matchmaker, and she’s the one who found Mike. She had set me up with a few others, but it didn’t work out. I was ready to give up. I remember thinking to myself, ‘This isn’t for me. I’m not the type. I’m too picky. I’m not in a good place in my life. I’m not ready. I hate dating.’ I was going through this whole grieving process over losing someone that I loved deeply, and I just told my matchmaker to let me get old with my dogs, to become a stereotype. I renovated a condo, put way too much money into it, I figured that this is where I’d live for the rest of my life. And she contacted me and said ‘There’s this one guy… how would you like somebody who is a gentleman?” And I said okay. I had only met two men through the service. Mike had a different experience than I did. He had gone out with more women who were not his type.

What’s really interesting to me is that, to this day, my matchmaker and I have never met. We’re actually talking about it now that this engagement has happened. She was totally responsible… I mean, she really did this; she put two people together who are going to spend the rest of their lives together. And so we have to meet her. I called her to tell her about this last week and she started screaming, which is so funny because she’s one of the calmest people I've ever met in my life and I would have never expected it. She was very excited.

Their matching system is done by computer, in terms of the many questions that they ask, and apparently Mike and I came up by a point, which is very strange, because we don’t have a lot in common. We’re different politically, religiously, he’s athletic, I’m artistic, but I have to say, just knowing that he’s around, I feel like I’m home. I’ll tell you what has happened. My condo, which is only 30 miles from here, I’m there only one night a month and I don’t like going there anymore. I don’t like being away from him. It’s really strange how that’s happened. Yes, sure, I like my time alone during the day and I don’t need to be tethered to him, but there is something about seeing that face when he comes through the door that just makes me happy.

Who made the initial contact? I hear that these blind dates are really blind.
That’s right! Absolutely no photos! The no photo thing was so frustrating to me, whenever I had been fixed up with someone in the past I always wanted to know what he looked like. I don’t remember exactly who called whom, but my gut tells me that I made the call. I felt uncomfortable having to make that first move, but Jill talked me into it. She possesses the rare art of leading you to make a decision so subtly that you think it was your own idea.

Describe your first date. How did it go?
It was really funny actually because he had described his car and I described mine. We met for lunch at a nice restaurant that he had chosen. I remember thinking “Lets just get this over with because obviously I just want to get it done because it’s not going to work.”
He walked up to me and he said the wrong name, <laughing> and I walked into the restaurant, and he got back into his car, and he realized that he had totally blundered and that of course I was the person he is meeting, and I am realizing the same thing, and I can’t believe this is happening. Obviously he is the guy. What do we do? So the two of us kind of realized what had happened, we laughed about it and had lunch. I had no recollection of what we talked about, but apparently we did a lot of talking. I think the first thing that we had in common was that he had lost a woman that he’d been with for fourteen years a year before, and that was a commonality at the beginning. We bonded over loss.

What was your first impression of Mike?
I thought he had beautiful blue eyes. I thought he was really nice. I thought he might be too nice. He doesn’t know that, but it’s okay <laughing> I know the date was good enough to agree to a second date before the first one was over.

Can you describe when you fell in love?
Defining moment – It was because of the Golden Globe Awards!  He asked me out and I said, “Oh, I can’t do it because the Golden Globe Awards are on and I never miss the Golden Globe Awards!” and he said “Would you mind if I came over and watched them with you?” and that was how he got me. He had me at the Golden Globe Awards, and that was our third date. 

What do your friends think about how you two met?
Actually, they think it’s great. When we first started sharing with people, Michael said ‘blind date.’

How would you describe your life together now?
It’s totally a compromise. Because we are so different, we both have definitely met in the middle in terms of lifestyle. I watch a lot of sports now, and he goes to a lot of movies. He also adopted two dogs of mine. He has two kids, I have two dogs, and so it’s a big family. A lot of our life is doing what the other one wants to do.

You two were recently engaged. Tell me about the proposal.
It was his birthday and we had been out to dinner with friends, and we came home, and while upstairs, his daughter said to me “I have one more present for Dad, could you take it downstairs?” but she stayed upstairs so I knew what was going on at that point, and that she was totally in on it. I have to admit, when I saw the bag, I thought it was a little frilly to be a present for him. So it did occur to me that this might be about to happen. So… I brought the bag down, and I said “Here’s your last present from KJ.” And he said “Well, actually, you have given me so many birthday presents, I have a present for you.” So I asked, “Is this what I think it is?” And he said, “Just open it!” And I opened it, and it was a ring, and I looked at him, and he said, “Will you marry me?” That’s when I burst into tears. And he said, “Aren’t you going to answer me?” So that’s how it happened.

Do you have any advice for others searching for love via the Together Dating service?
Yes. I think the thing that Jill at Together taught me the most was to look a little bit away from my priorities, and rethink what I thought I wanted. For me, it was all about power. I wanted a powerful man. That was my first priority. And I think using the word power wasn't the right way to describe it. I had it all wrong. I guess the way I looked at it, I had always responded to men of power, who took control of situations. But apparently using that particular word conjures up a lot of the wrong attributes. And Jill was able to figure out what I was saying. She really moved me away from it. Mike has tremendous confidence. But what makes him special is that he doesn't shy away from taking control of a situation, he just does it in a quiet, low-key manner.

James L. & Janis H.

James_and_janis_2 ”Janis was the first person that I met through the service.”

James, how was your dating life before you joined The Right One?

Well, it was non-existent. You can’t just walk up to someone in this day and age at Wal-Mart and say ‘hi.’  I was skeptical of matchmakers and dating sites. I’m not that savvy with the computer.

What inspired you to try The Right One?
I saw a commercial for a dating site called Cupid while watching television, but I didn’t really act on it. While visiting my sister, we were out driving and I saw a sign at the Interstate exit that said something like ‘Single?’ along with a website address. When we got home I looked it up online. I contacted them and they called not long after, and we set up an appointment to meet at their closest local office.

How did you like working with them?
The interviewer was an energetic young lady. She asked me a lot of questions, including subjects like activities, hobbies and music. I think the entire interview lasted about one and a half to two hours. Because of the background checks that they perform, I felt that I could trust the company. I’m a widower, and I was looking for someone with similar qualities to my deceased wife, but I wound up with someone completely different.

How was your first date?  What was your first impression of her?

Janis was the first person that I met through the service. We met for lunch and talked for at least two and a half hours. She had a nice smile and she was very outgoing. The chemistry was strong, but I didn’t see her again until six weeks after our first date.

Did you think you’d gotten the brush off?
Actually, I did. But the truth was that she was very busy with work and family obligations. I went on another date through the service, but the chemistry wasn’t there. So I was happy to see Janis again.

How has your relationship progressed?
We get along really well. She was looking for someone to hang out with. She’d been married previously and was a bit gun shy, so we’re taking things slowly. She’s a school teacher with a very full schedule so we see each other on weekends.  Her parents and family all live locally so I get invited to family gatherings.

Do you have any advice for others searching for love via The Right One?

Once I got into the program, I saw that they were thorough with their questions and background checks. And they found someone for me on the first go around, even though I had an idea in my head of what I wanted. So my advice to others would be to keep an open mind. It opens up all sorts of possibilities.

Jeffrey & Karen

“I feel like I don’t have to explain a lot. He knows exactly what I’m saying.”

After deciding to give The Right One a try, Jeffrey went to the local office. While completing the application process Jeffrey spoke with Francee. Francee’s face grew into a big smile. She knew exactly who she wanted Jeffrey to meet. Unfortunately the candidate was not active at the time but Francee did not give up.

Karen had had some great dates with The Right One. She decided though that as things got very busy with her kids she would take some time off. After about six months she got a call from Francee asking her to please come back. She had someone she wanted her to meet. 

Karen was waiting to meet Jeffrey at a local Best Buy when an employee approached her. Jeffrey was running 15 minutes late and was desperate to get the message to her. He called the store manager and after some begging he agreed to give Karen his message. He said to look for a blonde who was 5’6’’ and casually loitering. When Jeffrey finally got there he knew exactly who Karen was. “There was twinkle in her eye that let me know she was looking for me” Karen’s first impression was equally great. “He had a nice smile.” The couple went on to dinner and a stroll. The date lasted about 3 hours. The connection was made right away. “I cannot believe how at ease I was from the moment I met her. We just talked and talked.” Jeffrey was ready to date exclusively right away but Karen wanted him to be sure. After a few more dates Jeffrey came back to Karen, and the couple has been together since.

The couple was well matched. Jeffrey is an engineer and Karen is a High School algebra teacher. They both had a love of music and took their roles as parents very seriously. With all the things they had in common they got along great. Karen says “I feel like I don’t have to explain a lot. He knows exactly what I’m saying.” Since they both have kids they do not get to date every weekend. So when they do go out, it’s always special.  The couple has been to Nebraska and Ireland together. They are always trying something new. The only consistency to their dates is that they are able to relax, talk, and enjoy each other’s company even if it is at a Keith Urban concert.

The future holds great excitement for the couple. Presently they are only dating. However there have been more than a few conversations about marriage. Francee’s expertise along with The Right One’s matching system help these two find the perfect match.

Marilyn & Jim

Marilyn_and_jim “We were both taken with each other. We both knew this was it.”

Both Marilyn and Jim were dating veterans when they met. They knew exactly what they were looking for. Marilyn had become friends with some of her dates even though they did not turn into a relationship. When Marilyn and Jim were matched together it took less than six months for them to meet, fall in love, and marry.

Marilyn is a busy social worker. She agreed to meet Jim who is retired at a movie one weekend. She did show up a little late but that did not change the incredible impression she made on Jim. Jim can remember the name of the movie they saw but could not tell you what it was about if he had too. The couple went to a nice dinner after the movie, before Jim took Marilyn home. While there Jim announced to Marilyn he was interested in getting married and he hoped she was too. Marilyn calmly replied “Could you give me a couple of days to think about it?”

Over the next few weeks as the couple got to know each other better they discovered the things that they had in common. Both have a love of camping. They enjoy music, singing in the choir, and playing the clarinet. They both have grown daughters. The biggest thing they have in common is their spirituality. Marilyn had been praying for a life partner and it looked like Jim would be the answer.

After three weeks of dating Jim brought a ring over and formally proposed. He got down on one knee and asked for her hand. “We were both taken with each other. We both knew this was it” said Jim. They married in January.
The Saturday before Easter Marilyn officially became catholic. “It’s a dimension that tops everything” says Jim. They look forward to a honeymoon in Western Maryland and vacationing in Florida.

Beverly & Dennis

Beverly’s life changed forever when she got a phone call from The Right One dating. She was unfamiliar with matchmaking services but she thought she would give it a try. She went through the interview process and after a few dates she met Dennis.

Dennis was a true gentleman. “Before, I always called the guy first. This time he called me.” That first phone call lasted for three hours. During that time Dennis and Beverly got to know each other before the first date. Dennis is a hunter so it was no coincidence that they met at the Fin-N-Feather for dinner.

The evening went very well. So well that Dennis wanted Beverly to meet his daughter the next day “I guess he was so impressed with me.” Beverly and Dennis’s daughter hit it off as well and a beautiful relationship began.

The couple discovered they were very well matched. They both enjoyed the same music and started to buy CD’s together. They both like to fish and Beverly (who will bait her own hook) can cook them better than anyone. Beverly soon found out that she would love dancing as much as Dennis. The couple took up Ballroom dancing and is looking forward to continuing the new hobby together.

Beverly and Dennis got even closer. They complemented each other. Dennis enjoyed making a birdhouse for Beverly and she enjoyed painting it. Dennis would call Beverly from his hunting trips and Beverly looked forward to hearing all about it. It was time for the relationship to move forward.

Beverly knew that Dennis was going to propose she just did not know when. Dennis chose the same restaurant where they first met. He proposed on a bridge close by. Beverly has taken on a lot of the wedding jobs herself in order to make it extra special. She is even making all the dresses including her own. And where would they choose to have there special June wedding? The Fin-N-Feather of course! A place that will always be special to them.

Paul L. & Laurie V.

Paul_and_laurie ”Because they screen their clients, I felt so safe and so protected. They were watching out for me.”

”My life is very full now. I feel happier in this relationship than I ever have before. I have never been so compatible with anyone as I am with Laurie.”

How was your dating life before you joined The Right One?
Laurie:  I was married for almost twenty years, so I hadn’t dated in a long time. I was a new widow, attending school full time. I just wanted someone to hang out with, to have fun with, to go to the movies with, to see concerts. I wanted a different facet of life.

Paul: Before joining TRO, I hadn't been on a date since before I was married in 1981. I've been divorced since 1998 and had been alone and somewhat content that way.

Were you initially skeptical of matchmakers and dating sites?

Laurie: I had tried online matchmaking service for three months and wasn’t getting anywhere because I lived in the country, and they couldn’t find any matches in my vicinity. The closest match was two hours away, but that was too far to try to build a relationship. I don’t go to church and I don’t drink, so it was really hard to figure out where to meet somebody.

Paul: I was skeptical. I had been to a couple of other sites and I didn't like that I had to join just to look. I did join a couple of them briefly, but I always came away disappointed.

What inspired you to try The Right One?

Laurie: There was a sign on the side of the road – I logged onto the website and saw all of these images of people having a good time and I thought I might as well give it a try. I just wanted someone to travel with, to do things with.

Paul: I saw their sign on the side of the road one day on the way home from work. I guess for me it was the right place and the right time.

How did you like working with them?
Laurie: They made it very easy. I just filled out my personal information. They got back to me immediately, and I met with them to do the interview. They were really friendly and helpful as far as our time schedule.

Paul: I don't remember the name of the woman who interviewed me, but she made me comfortable throughout the process.

What is the process like?

Laurie: They’re so discreet. I didn’t even know they were there. They don’t blatantly advertise, they’re just behind the scenes doing their job and are very successful, I think by word of mouth marketing. The older you get the harder it gets to meet someone. My interviewer said that after being widowed, the longer I stayed single, the lower my chances were of finding a good match… because you kind of get settled in to your routine and you’re doing your routine and you have this circle going off to the right, and he’s doing his routine and he has this circle going off to the left, and our paths never would have crossed. I have three teenagers. I don’t want to bring just anyone into my house. With The Right One, because they screen their clients, I felt so safe and so protected. They were watching out for me. They didn’t really know me but I felt that… because of the background check… this guy is who he says he is and he works where he says he works and he’s single… that proof was wonderful to me.

How long did it take from the time you went on your initial interview to the time you met?
Laurie: It took about four weeks, because they had to do background checks.

Who made the initial contact?
Laurie: I did! I was told, “As soon you get the letter, call.” People are nervous. When you get the authorization you both know what is involved, you both know what you’re looking for, so call. He said he didn't call me because he was working third shift and he needed to wait for a time to call, and he’s shy. I’m more outgoing. I called him on a Wednesday and we met on a Saturday morning.

Paul:
Laurie made the first call. Unfortunately, I was working when she called and I called her back the next day.

Describe your first date. How did it go?

Laurie: He was extremely nervous. We went to IHOP. I got there a bit before him and he was there in the parking lot, nervous, wondering who I might be, looking at all the cars driving in. He saw an overweight mom with a bunch of kids and thought, “That can’t be her.”  I said I’d be waiting in the lobby. We met without exchanging photos, as they don’t want us to base our decisions on appearance. We are completely compatible on so many areas - the only thing they say that they can’t guarantee is the spark, so I’ll need to decide if the spark is there or not because the rest is there. I knew that he was 49, divorced, two children, hobbies. But most importantly, I knew he was safe.

Paul: Our first date was a breakfast date. I walked into it scared and nervous. I hadn't been on a date in over twenty-five years. I was sure that I was going to make a fool out of myself. We sat down and made small talk, and got to know each other a little bit. After breakfast, we went to a park and took a nice walk together as we talked some more. It’s a good thing Laurie is a good talker. It helped keep the conversation going. We were together about three hours. We made plans to get together again the next day.

What was your first impression?

Laurie: “Oh, he’s cute.” He looked Italian but he’s German. My husband was a huge burly Irishman with a moustache and wore extra large everything, and Paul walks in and he’s smaller in stature, but he’s handsome. We were there for about 1.5-2 hours. I asked him if he wanted to go for a walk, as there was a big park with a historical society nearby, and it was a nice day. 

Paul: My first impression was ‘Wow, she's really pretty, did I get lucky.’ I was also very impressed with the way she could keep the conversation going, because I'm not very good at it when I meet someone. And she was such a happy person considering why she was single (she's a widow). She has such a positive outlook on life.

Can you describe when you fell in love?
Laurie: Hmmm. Our first date was on a Saturday and the following Sunday there was a musical in town, so I asked him if he’d be interested in going. We met at the Park ‘n ride, and we were both nervous, we’d only known each other for a couple of hours, so we went to the festival and we had so much fun. We ate and we listened to music and we walked around and we laughed and it was like we knew each other for a long time. And at the end of the evening he gave me a kiss, it was raining, and we were standing in the parking lot, and I was like “Oooooh, I really like this guy.” We just hit it off right away. What really cemented my feelings for Paul was seeing how he interacts with his kids.

And interestingly enough, we were both the first person we each met through The Right One. You know, there could have been somebody else out there, but he was so perfect for me and I was so perfect for him that neither of us wanted to meet anyone else.

Paul: I can't say exactly when it was, but I realized after a few months that she really cared about me and would do anything for me. I had never had that before.

How has your relationship progressed?

Laurie: Wonderful. He helped me through nursing school. He’s been really supportive, even though we only see each other once a week because of the distance. We both own houses and we both have teenagers, and live about 45-50 miles apart. Our work schedules make it tough.

Paul: Unfortunately because of our conflicting work schedules, we only get to see each other once a week, sometimes twice. We speak to each other daily on the phone, even if it's for a couple of minutes when one of us is on a break. But we are always there for each other when we need to be, dealing with life’s ups and downs.

What do your friends think about how you two met?
Laurie: I tell everybody, if they ask, I’m very happy with the service and I would do it again. If anything ever happened to Paul, I would do it again. He’s the most compatible person I've ever been with. With losing my husband suddenly, nothing is guaranteed. So I tell everybody how we met, and he says that it was a blind date. He doesn’t want to tell people that we met through a dating agency. I don’t know why.

Paul: I told everybody we were set up on a blind date. I'm such a jerk.

How would you describe your life now?
Laurie: We go to sporting events. We got to concerts. We drove to New York with his daughter. We just have so much fun together. We’re looking forward to doing more traveling.

Paul: My life is very full now. I feel happier in this relationship than I ever have before. I have never been so compatible with anyone as I am with Laurie.

What are your future plans?

Laurie: I would like to get a house closer to work. Now that I've graduated from nursing school and am established with the hospital, I’m going to move first and find a home that will accommodate all of us, and then he’ll sell his house and move in with us. We went to the Phoenix area last summer to visit my family and we’re planning a trip to Cancun this summer. The passports are in the works.

Paul: We will be together for a long time. We have talked about so many things that we want to do together. I can't wait to do it all. We will eventually be living together once some issues get resolved (mainly with the children) and we both enjoy traveling so we look forward to that.

Do you have any advice for others searching for love via The Right One?
Laurie: It’s very much worth the money. At first I thought, “No way, I cannot afford that!” and after hearing their great pitch, I just dove in. It was expensive but I would have never been this happy had I not invested the money.

Paul: Just give it a try. You never know who's out there who, just like you, is looking for that special someone to complete his or her life.
