When I was informed that out of several impressive candidates, Patti Stanger had chosen me as her new Director of Recruiting for The Millionaire’s Club I was truly overwhelmed with excitement and emotion. Without a doubt, I was honored but most importantly I felt the need to step up to the task. I was well aware that many had attempted to live up to her expectations and many had failed. I told myself repeatedly that all of my life experiences had adequately prepared for me for this challenge and I would not let Patti or myself down. I did not realize at the time how this arduous journey would have an impact on the woman and matchmaker I am today.

Priorities change as you get older. What seems important in your 20’s and early 30’s (like the kind of car a guy drives, the clothes he wears, or the caliber of the restaurants he frequents) turns out not matter in the least once you reach your late 30’s and beyond.

Our inner monologue goes a little something like this: We'll work out after the holidays, it's simply too cold to go outside, nobody will notice if our bodies aren't as tight as they were in the spring--thanks, leggings and over-sized sweaters!
There is one glaring problem with that kind of mentality. You'll know. You'll know that you're putting your health on hold for the holidays, and you'll definitely know when your skinny jeans are a bit too skinny. It doesn't feel good to let yourself go, even just for a season. Not feeling your best can take a serious toll on your confidence, which can have a direct effect on your dating success, more than your pants size ever could.

Atlantans are inquisitive individuals. I don’t know if it’s our friendly, southern disposition that compels us to try and acquire someone’s life story upon initial meeting or what. But we’ll meet a complete stranger and by the end of the day, you’d swear we were BFF’s (or at least distant cousins) because we’ve accumulated so much information about one another. If we meet someone we’re interested in, multiply this by two! Yes, we ask a million and one questions, but do we ask the right ones?

People tend to treat dating as an either/or situation. Either you’re dating online or you’re dating out in the real world, but you can’t have both. If you’re dating online, that’s your jam, and that’s what all of your time and effort goes into. After a while, online dating starts to feel like a full-time job. There are so many different sites and about 40 million daters to sift through. It’s overwhelming, to say the least.
