This week, a reporter for a national magazine rung us up to ask how a gal could know if her fella is “marriage material.” They’re looking for specific “signs” that a boyfriend might be a keeper, and wondered how we might advise a client asking this type of question. Our matchmakers, as you can imagine, had plenty of answers for her. But it got me to thinking–because of course nothing is simple when it comes to people’s love lives–that maybe this wasn’t the right question. Or rather, that this simple question stirred up other questions that feel more fundamental and somehow important, like, “why do people date in the first place?” or, asked another way, “is it correct to assume that everyone dating hopes it will lead to marriage?”
Since we specialize in first dates, our matchmakers are often asked for appropriate date icebreakers. We curate blind date experiences that we plan and book for our matches. Suddenly face-to-face with a potential new love interest, new clients struggle a little bit for “safe” topics and tried-and-true conversation starters. What should or shouldn’t they say?…

I sat down today with Fernando. He’s a fantastically handsome African-Mexican American. He likes to say he’s, “blacksican.” Fernando is a world class caretaker for the elderly who is also a rockstar on the dance floor. Fernando’s interview will be the first in a series of “single spotlights” where I will get to know different men and women through light conversation about love. Fernando, tell me about yourself. I’m in my early 30’s, I live in Richmond CA and I work as a caregiver for a lovely lady who will remain nameless…
While some clients admittedly come to feeling kind of miserably “alone” or unhappily uncoupled, many others really enjoy this time of their lives while searching for a most ideal other. “Single” doesn’t necessarily equate to “alone” in the mind of every singleton, and one’s perception of the challenges and opportunities inherent to going it alone for awhile appears to be somewhat, well… individual.
