Using a Matchmaker after Divorce


Image from Real Simple

Returning to the dating scene can be challenging if you've been divorced for a while. You're afraid to try online dating because you don't trust strangers. You want someone with your best interests at heart and hope you’ll find a compatible partner.


You also want someone who will be honest with you about what you need to do to find love again. That may require someone to provide professional support and guidance throughout the dating process. If this describes you, then matchmaking might be for you!

Online dating can be challenging because you look at a photo and know some aspects of the person but not all. How can you trust a stranger you haven’t met? How do you screen a potential? This is overwhelming on dating sites like Match, eHarmony, Bumble, Hinge, OkCupid, or Plenty of Fish (POF). These sites use algorithms based on scientific research into the qualities that make relationships successful and happy so they can help people find compatible partners.


On these sites, there are only profiles with photos or verified email addresses - which is only sometimes valid for other services like Craigslist - and users can only communicate through messaging to protect their privacy and give everyone an equal chance at finding love.


However, when you want to find someone with your best interests at heart, these mainstream sites may not be for you. In walks a real-life matchmaker. It might be the time for a human matchmaker who you speak to and who provides you with insights on how the process works. They’ll help make a match and thoroughly screen your potential dates. You can trust these people to help you find a compatible partner.


Matchmakers are trained to find people who are compatible with you because they know how to look for certain qualities in people and relationships. They'll ask who would best suit your lifestyle, personality, interests, and goals. Matchmakers also know how to identify red flags when it comes to dating: They can tell if someone is trying too hard or being dishonest while getting to know them better.


You want a matchmaker who will be honest with you about what you need to do to find love again. You want someone who has your best interests at heart and will provide professional support and guidance throughout the dating process. Guess what? You're in luck: matchmakers are there for this exact reason! They have seen countless clients go through the same struggles as you, so they can help guide you through them in a way that feels natural and productive.


The first thing to understand is that matchmakers are trained professionals. They know what makes a good match and how best to find it for their clients, which means they'll be able to help set realistic expectations regarding finding love again after divorce. The right matchmaker will also guide every step of your search, from creating profiles on dating websites or apps to meeting with potential partners face-to-face (and beyond).


Matchmaking is also superb for people who feel they've tried everything else but still haven't found what they want. It's not just about finding a partner; it's about finding someone who makes sense for you as an individual, and that often means taking the time to figure out what exactly matters most when it comes to relationships (and whether those things may change over time).


If you’re interested in these services, a good one to start with is Tawkify.
