Why Jewish Singles Choose Matchmaking over Dating Apps

Why Personal Jewish Matchmaking Works Better

We are in the era of dating apps — well, maybe on the tail end. Because at this point, many Jewish singles are struggling to find a quality partner by such an impersonal method — and are rediscovering the many benefits of using a skilled and professional Jewish matchmaker in their search for love.

In this blog post, I explain how hiring an elite Jewish matchmaker is the best way to meet quality Jewish singles and start living the life of togetherness that you’ve been dreaming of.

A Jewish Matchmaker Vets Your Matches

Spending hours scrolling through the seemingly endless supply of profiles is not getting anyone closer to finding a partner who is a specific match for them.

In contrast, a professional Jewish matchmaker hand-picks your matches and evaluates every profile for compatibility, shared values and interests, lifestyle similarities, and more. You set the parameters to Jewish singles who are aligned to your lifestyle. Whether you’re seeking a match in New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, or any of the myriad of cities where Jewish singles live, a personal Jewish matchmaker will tailor the search to your preferences.

A Jewish Matchmaker Understands Your Observance

Whether you are secular or observant, your personal Jewish matchmaker understands where you are on the religious spectrum and will match you with like-minded Jewish singles. Our Jewish tradition is rich in history and meaning. For some, it plays an important role in life and for others, it’s just a label. A professional Jewish matchmaker takes the time to understand how your Jewishness shows up in your world and what role you want our religion to play in the life of your future family.

A Jewish Matchmaker Eliminates Scammers

The biggest problem facing dating apps today is the astounding number of fake profiles and cons that run rampant on those platforms. You literally have NO idea who you are communicating with - or if “he/she” is even human! Jewish singles who hire a professional Jewish matchmaker are not playing games or running a con. These are Jewish singles who are serious about building a relationship and moving things to the next level — Jewish singles who are ready to meet their person, invest the time getting to know them, and progress into an exclusive relationship that will lead to marriage, and depending on their individual preference- children.

A Jewish Matchmaker Conserves Your Time

Jewish singles waste a lot of time swiping left and right and getting nowhere. In fact, all this swiping takes them further and further away from their goal. How many d*ck pix or requests for naked photos are you supposed to tolerate? Is this considered “normal” today? Jewish singles who work with a professional Jewish matchmaker are never going to ask for or send such ridiculous photos. You know from the start that the process is on an elevated level. Working with your personal Jewish matchmaker is an elevation in quality just by itself — before you’ve even gotten started.

A Jewish Matchmaker Gives Honest Feedback

All of us come with a relationship history and a relational style - often called “baggage”. Nothing about dating apps helps you to recognize your blind spots or overcome the biases that might be hindering your attempts to form a lasting relationship. Working with a personal Jewish matchmaker means that you’ve got a real person with decades of experience (in my case) observing Jewish singles relate to one another. My goal as your personal Jewish matchmaker is to match you with a compatible partner in order to grow a relationship that is lasting. If I see that you are sabotaging yourself, I will say something. Dating apps don’t give feedback.

A Jewish Matchmaker Guarantees Confidentiality

When you upload your info and photos to a dating app, it’s out there for everyone to see - including the crazies and cons. Hiring an elite Jewish matchmaker guarantees that the only eyes who see your profile are the eyes of another sincere Jewish single who was hand-chosen as a potential match for you. Your personal information is not spread around to everyone to see. As your personal Jewish matchmaker, I promise 100% confidentiality and security. This level of discretion is priceless.

A Jewish Matchmaker is the Intelligent Choice for Jewish Singles

Dating apps have become a pastime for Jewish singles. It’s like a game - scrolling, swiping, getting that dopamine hit when someone “likes” you. But it’s an empty and unfulfilling game. If you’re ready to stop playing the game and get serious about your love-life, hiring a professional and personal Jewish matchmaker is the single best move to elevate your dating experience and bring you ever closer to your goal - a committed relationship with your lifetime love.
