@arthurcbrooks: When you choose your own dates, you tend to look for sameness. But compatibility is not about finding someone exactly like you. It’s about sharing the values that matter while having enough differences to complement each other. So the next time someone who knows you well wants to set you up, be open to it. They might see a fit that you could have missed yourself.

Until you realize that your friends don’t even know you at all. 😆

this only works if your friend actually know you and your values

The two worst dates I've ever been on were blind dates set up by a good friend, and i had to reconsider how she thought of me and why she thought these men were good matches for me

OR strengthen your relationship with God and he WILL place you and your kingdom spouse together. Pray and have faith that he is the one and only one who can set you up on a blind date. 🙏🏼💯

Almost nobody does that anymore. First you have to persuade people to do that.

Make sure your friend is very self aware and empathetic or their gonna choose someone they would want for themselves.

Serial monogamous folks or those who married their first partner are not good matchmakers. Cynical people are very good matchmakers. They won’t set you up unless they know there would be chemistry.

My blind date and I ghosted each other, reconnected 8 months later. I fell head over heels and he asked me to be his gf in 2 weeks of reconnecting. Dumped after three months but knew about 2 weeks into being official he was no longer interested.

That would require people to put in effort instead of “but you’re both single!” I’m not picking someone because they happen to also be single!😡😡
