Break-Ups & Social Media

If you're reading this blog, you're probably familiar with social media. Many of you have Facebook accounts, you tweet and you may even have your own blog. Years ago, the term you often heard about couples dating each other exclusively was "going steady". Now with social media, it's “Facebook official".

But when you have a breakup, instead of letting the news trickle through the gossip grapevine, social media outlets like Facebook make breaking up even more harder to do—and more public.

We hear from our clients the emotions of dating with Facebook, Twitter and other social media websites. That’s why we decided to share this article with you today on “Handling social media when your relationship implodes”.

Another heart to add to our wall!

Drew and Maggie met downtown for a drink after work in August. They both continued to meet other people with It’s Just Lunch, but we loved hearing updates on how things were going between them.

We got a call this week from both Drew and Maggie saying they’d like to place their membership “on hold” while they dated each other exclusively. They’re looking forward to spending the fall and holiday season together! Keep us posted, Maggie and Drew! In the meantime, here is a look back on their feedback from their first date:

“It was fabulous! We spent hours together (six actually). She’s fun, adorable, sexy and smart. I’m just thrilled! The date was fantastic and the best match yet.”-Drew

“Drew was a very nice match. He’s accomplished but kind and humble. He’s really good looking too! We spent hours together and he asked me out for next week. My fingers are crossed for this one!”-Maggie

"Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it" -Steve Jobs

  

Tips for giving feedback to us

1.)    Be honest with the feedback! The feedback remains confidential and we never share it with the person you just met

2.)    Tell us what you liked in detail and what stood out to you about your match, the more details you can provide the better! Give us more than “he was nice” or “she was pretty”

3.)    Give us points to focus on moving forward with your matches…we learn more about you with each and every match

4.)    Remember, the feedback process fine tunes our matchmaking. This is YOUR membership and we want it to work for you!
