It’s Time! 3 Reasons to Date in 2022
Dating has always allowed you to hit pause and take a break. But after living thru the last few years of a pandemic which has challenged dating, many of us realize now it’s about so much more. Matchmakers like me, who work with singles who say they would seriously date someone, are setting the tone. Dating can be a good catalyst for good and it can even be regenerative for singles.
Knowing what you want, finding smart ways to cut thru all the noise, meeting others who are more ready to find love, generally is on everyone’s mind and a constant with all the singles I speak with these days. Luckily, Matchmakers have always taken dating seriously and as the world really starts to open up again, here are my 3 reasons to get dating in 2022.
- Intentional dating. Elevate the bar, be clear and date with purpose. Know what the heck you’re looking for and seek alignment early (& often); and don’t waste time meeting other singles characterized by finding pleasure in flings and things than staying committed.
- The great online migration. Anyone who’s ever tried their hand at online dating apps and fallen into the abyss of badly lit selfies, fib heavy profiles and “one word” messages know exactly what I’m talking about. Dating apps are designed to keep you on the apps- something most don’t have the time or patience for, and singles are looking for alternatives that can help cut through the noise–willing to give matchmaking a shot.
- Make dating fun again. As matchmakers our MO is to make dating fun again, make it romantic, and turn back your attention to mingling with singles in real life. Something that is lacking in today’s app-driven dating scene.
