        to connect with, we can help make an introduction for you. It is

        year is different and even more impressive than in prior years. With
        the online dating nose dive gone rampant in Florida, quality singles
        are more likely to hire a verified matchmaker (with a physical local
        office). I’ve also noticed that people that would usually not commit are
        committing. Exclusivity is on the rise. Pairing Off is trending. These   Meet Kristy...  Meet David...  Meet Jason...
