We have A Wayward Hearts Match: Why Real Matchmaking Works

I just got TWO emails that made me want to cry happy tears.

 First one: "We have lots in common, especially our values and personality compatibility. You did an awesome job matching us up!"

 Second one: "I think there is something there. I want to see where this goes."

 Same match. Both people. Independently reaching out to tell me their first date went REALLY well.

 Friends, THIS is why I started Wayward Hearts. Because dating apps can't do what thoughtful human matchmaking can do. I see beyond the surface and connect people based on who they actually are.

What Makes This Match Special from my other introductions

Two Islanders who might never have met just found each other. They didn't swipe right on a profile. They didn't exchange countless messages trying to figure out if they had anything in common. They didn't waste weeks building up expectations before meeting.  

Instead, they trusted the matchmaking process. They showed up to their first date knowing I had thoughtfully considered their values, interests, lifestyle, and what they're genuinely looking for in a partner. And it worked. It worked so well, they are going to keep meeting and getting to know each other.

Why my matching process is better than dating apps

Before the date: I spent time getting to know both people. Not just what they look like or what they do for work, but who they ARE. What matters to them. What they need in a partner. What kind of connection they're seeking.

The introduction: I facilitated their first meeting with context and care. They weren't just "Person A, meet Person B." They were thoughtfully introduced as compatible people worth each other's time.

The result: They connected immediately. Found common ground in their values. Felt comfortable with each other. Exchanged contact information. Made plans to continue seeing each other.

This Is What Success Looks Like. I was told: "You did an awesome job matching us up, Cheryl." That acknowledgment means everything to me. Because matchmaking isn't about luck or volume. It's about truly understanding people and making thoughtful connections based on genuine compatibility.

Dating apps show you who looks good on paper. They use algorithms based on superficial data points. They create endless options that lead to decision fatigue and disappointment.

 Human matchmaking is different. It's personal. It's thoughtful. It's based on understanding the whole person. You are not just a profile.

 When you work with a matchmaker, you're not alone in the process. You have someone actively thinking about who would be a great fit for you, someone facilitating introductions with care, someone following up and supporting you through the journey.

This successful match, where they don’t want to meet anyone else, is proof that what I'm building here works. Real matchmaking creates real connections.

 If you're tired of dating apps that go nowhere, if you're exhausted by endless swiping and disappointing dates, if you're ready to try something different - this is your invitation.

 Let me do what I do best: understand who you are, find someone genuinely compatible, and thoughtfully introduce you.

 Because everyone deserves what these two people just found: a real connection based on genuine compatibility, not just a swipe.
