Matching partners for long lasting and healthy relationships SCOTTDALE’S MATCHMAKING EXPERT KAREN STEIN ANSWERS YOUR QUESTIONS From her first match made at eighteen to setting up love in 2017, Karen Stein is a passionate, second generation matchmaker with over thirty years experience. HOW DOES YOUR PROCESS START? WHAT ARE SOME SPECIALIZED SERVICES? Potential clients can book a meeting for a free ninety-minute session by calling me or filling out our form online. Everything we discuss and all information is kept private. In addition, all clients are background checked. We are not detectives, but especially in today’s climate, we aim to provide a safe environment for all of our clients. During our meeting, we will discuss your past, the ins and outs of your life today, how I can help shape the future you desire, and more. We are a full concierge service looking to take the stress and sometimes unnecessary back and forth of dating out of your hands. When you show up for a date, you can feel at ease that your match has been qualified and handpicked for you. DO YOU HAVE A MOTTO OR A BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY? No matter what stage of life you’re in, you don’t have to grow up or grow old alone, if you don’t want to. Call it a soul mate, partner, compatible companion, if you’re open to the possibility and a little bit of help—why not you? DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE MATCH OR TYPE OF MATCH? WHAT AGES HAVE YOU MADE MATCHES WITH? I love when people sign up and it’s a perfect match right out of the gate, and we’re already joking about dancing together at their wedding. That happens frequently, but I believe in the process so much, and I love understanding
what people want, going through this journey with them, discussing each and every date, and then introducing them to their life partner. That is more reflective of life. In regards to ages, I have made matches with individuals a couple of years removed from college to individuals in their twilight years. If you are physically, mentally, and emotionally ready to find love, I am here to help guide you to your life partner. WHY SEEK A MATCHMAKER IN THE WORLD OF ONLINE DATING? We live in a tech-driven society and with its benefits come certain pitfalls. Things are expected immediately, people are skimmed right over with a single swipe. As individuals, we require a larger investment, we require time, human interaction, and without someone looking out for you, typically, this fluctuating dating scene can look like a desperate landscape. I get to the heart of your wants, in addition to helping you consider what you need, I am dedicated to understanding you as a person—after all, love is not quantifiable, and it cannot be measured through a computer. WHAT’S SOME ADVICE YOU CAN GIVE TO SINGLES OR PEOPLE JUST SIGNING UP? Be as open as you can possibly be, I can’t tell you how many relationships I’ve seen grow from what seemed like humble beginnings into life-long partnerships. People need time to show their best selves, sometimes more than a single date. As individuals, in a new situation with a new person in front of us, we are thrown off by minor things, and since we have yet to discover all their other wonderful qualities, we let these often insignificant details dictate the success of the date. Who knows, perhaps on date two you
will be charmed by their intelligence, find out about an unexpected hobby or character trait, or a holding of hands or a small kiss will ignite something you never knew was there—you’ll only know about if you give it a chance. We have so many preferences, we are guided by judgments, preconceived notions—every one of us—but we need to take a step back, understand where it has led us to this point, and open ourselves up to the possibilities, as best we can.
