Why we are different

Happy New Year!

Rachael and Smith is going to be 15 years old.

About our client base:

When ladies come for a consultation, they often ask, why if these guys have such good profiles, do they need your service? I say because they knew me, they joined one of my events 10 or even 15 years ago.

In the past, I witnessed them getting into a relationship, or getting married, breaking up and coming back to our service. Or 10 years ago, when he may have been 35 and not ready….now is ready at 45…..the majority of our male clients are in their 40s. For successful men, their time is very valuable. Using a dating app is considered a waste of time. People who come to us are generally more serious.

Very Personalized Service:

Because I personally meet every client, I know their personality very well. Finding them a date takes a few minutes. Some clients think they know what they want, but after a consultation….they are clear about what they want, and where to look.

Best matches for female clients:

While our female clients have a wide range of ages, from 20s to 50s…two of my happiest matches are my best friend who has been married for 10 years; the other is a female client aged 52 who has a son. She is happily in love with another of my clients. For myself….I found I married the best man in the world. I met him in July, we were married in November.

Sometimes finding love is just that easy.

If you or your friends are looking for an exclusive matching service to meet sophisticated candidates, then sign up for our free consultation.

Let our experienced matchmakers find your matches!

Greeting cultural differences on a first date

Rachael — Wed, 27 Jun 2018 04:14:26 +0000

Here are my thoughts on the key greeting differences:

1. If you are a Westerner, meeting Asian girls … instead of giving a kiss on the cheek, test the waters out to see what makes the lady comfortable.

2. Shaking hands only happen when you are meeting someone for business – DON”T DO THAT ON A DATE. Most European, France, Spain, Italy, and UK men like to greet friends by kissing on both cheeks. Dutch and Belgium will give a cheek kiss 3 times.

3. If you don’t know how to react, just smile which is the near-universal friendliness. Do not act like you never have been kissed on the cheek before. Act like nothing has happened.

4. Make sure you spray cologne/perfume, and that your face is clean and neat, not oily. About perfume: many people are allergic especially to cheap perfume.

5. In Asia, generally speaking, no physical contact on the first date when greeting each other (best to wait until things are more relaxed – a few drinks definitely helps!).
In conclusion, a hug, a gentle touch of the shoulder, a smile on a first date.

Keep studying and practicing to The PHD Rule

Rachael — Tue, 26 Jun 2018 02:57:22 +0000

Last night when I was watching a movie with my loved one, a movie called Dr. Strange, someone asked the doctor: What makes you become a PHD?

He said “Study and practice!”

This applies to all professional jobs, dating, and relationships. Someone also said: I found the harder I work, the luckier I get.

Therefore let’s keep studying and practicing how to be good at dating, a good gentleman/lady, or a good spouse.

You will find the harder you work at it…the luckier you become, and the closer you will get to what you want.

Pre-Dinner Date Etiquette

raingo — Thu, 16 Nov 2017 06:51:57 +0000

For the gentleman: The dinner date does not begin when you arrive at the restaurant. It began when you invited her out. And you should try to make the date at least 3-5 days in advance.

If you ask her what she likes, she will politely say, “Anything is fine.” Instead, ask if she has any food allergies or preferences and make your restaurant selection based on that. Read some restaurant reviews. If the place is nice, and it should be nice for a first or second date, MAKE A RESERVATION. It shows that you respect the occasion and consider it important enough to ensure that it goes well.

For the ladies: Unfortunately, not every guy will understand the importance of good preparedness. If the guy is busy, or is nervous about choosing the wrong restaurant, you can take a positive step by offering to make the reservation. Pick a restaurant that you have been wanting to try with someone. It doesn’t necessarily mean they’re not sincere if they don’t make a reservation; it could just be that they’ve been single for a long time, and are not confident enough to make such decisions yet.

Show confidence in yourself and in your partner

*One evening, Rene and Gilbert decided to have a drink and play a couple of games of pool. Rene was running late, and when she arrived, she found Gilbert playing with Bo (who looked like she already had a few drinks), Marcus, and Michelle. It so happens that they all work for the same financial institution.

As soon as Rene arrived, Gilbert invited her to play doubles, which was very gentlemanly of him. During the game, Bo suddenly kissed Gilbert. Now Rene is a confident lady, and instead of protesting that she is Gilbert’s girlfriend, she gazed at the pool table mapping out how to help him win the game. When it was her turn, Rene asked Gilbert what she would get if she made the shots. A kiss? On the lips? He really likes her but he also has to be respectful of his colleagues, including Bo. After Rene potted two amazing shots to win the game, he gave her a deep passionate kiss. Bo got the message.

If your partner is desirable, other people will have their eyes on him/her. Stay cool and show confidence in yourself and in your partner. Playing pool helps you focus and stay cool under pressure, and it will pay off one day.

Why do men like to help?

Rachael — Tue, 24 Oct 2017 01:50:24 +0000

*In terms of evolutionary psychology, men have always been protectors. When a man sees a woman who needs help, he instinctively feels the urge to offer a hand, whether it is changing light bulbs, moving heavy furniture, or killing cockroaches. And when the woman shows appreciation, the man feels good because he was able to ...

Dating is like photography

Rachael — Wed, 27 Sep 2017 06:31:36 +0000

I recently met with a potential new client who is an auditor. We started by having a casual chat. I asked about her hobbies. She said she likes film photography. She likes the idea that we have to take 100-200 shots to arrive at one good image. It is a process of discovery, often in total darkness, and you never know which picture is best until it is developed.

I said that sounds familiar. She laughed and agreed that it’s a lot like dating. Love is never effort-free. Dating itself should not be easy. In the movies, all that drama and romance is condensed into two hours. In life, it takes time for love to grow, and yes, develop. We also make positives from the negatives.

In my matchmaking experience, those who achieve successful outcomes are the ones who maintain an open mind and keep refining the process. The client signed up and took the first step in her journey of love.
