An elite matchmaker says executives' biggest strength at work can make dating harder for them
Executives' need for control can get in the way of love, said Talia Goldstein, the founder of Three Day Rule Matchmaking.
Talia Goldstein, the founder of Three Day Rule Matchmaking, has highlighted that accomplished executives can face challenges in dating. The Business Insider article by Cadie Thompson reveals that while success in the business world often means having a high-paying job and authority, it does not guarantee an easy love life. Goldstein's matchmaking service focuses on helping these busy professionals slow down, open up, and trust the dating process.
Successful executives, accustomed to controlling outcomes in their professional lives, often struggle with the unpredictability of chemistry in dating, which can be frustrating, according to Goldstein. The matchmaker's firm charges clients from $6,300 to roughly $100,000 for matchmaking services and coaching that aids executives in improving their dating skills.
A significant aspect of this coaching involves receiving feedback from both parties after dates, which helps clients understand how they are perceived by potential matches. The feedback helps break recurring patterns and enables clients to learn about themselves, making the matchmaking process more enjoyable and insightful, according to Goldstein.
An example provided by the matchmaker was of a successful entrepreneur whose attempts to build romantic connections failed as the women he dated perceived their interactions as business-like rather than romantic. The breakthrough came when the team discovered that the entrepreneur ended each date with a handshake instead of a hug, a small change that drastically altered the outcome of his dating experiences.
