Married at First Sight
Although I primarily help gay singles level up their dating skills, I also work with couples to master their romantic magic, and I occasionally work with celebrity matchmaking clients.
One of my celebrity matches was between Matt and Daniel, the first successful gay couple on the Married at First Sight TV franchise.
Matt and Daniel were introduced in April of 2021 and not only were they totally smitten with each other, but they became the gay sweethearts of the United Kingdom!
As a result of this couple’s success, I'm often asked what were some of the key factors that helped me determine the pair were a great fit for each other, and what makes their connection seem so effortless.
These three primary things really formed the foundation of their success:
They share the same core values.
Similar values are one of the primary indicators of long-term relationship compatibility. Matt and Daniel both really care about making a difference in the world and their lifestyles before meeting each other were already evidence of this fact.
They have compatible attachment styles.
Knowing your attachment style is one of the most important factors in relationship compatibility, longevity, and satisfaction.
They both had higher-level dating skills.
The #1 reason anyone is single is because they’re trying to have a Level 25 relationship with Level 3 dating skills. The better your relationship skills, the easier it is for you to navigate whatever romantic situation requires those skills. In addition to the coaching and support they received during the TV show, Matt and Daniel had both already gone through experiences that developed their dating skills. Once they met, their relationship was pretty easy to nurture and sustain.
Many singles who struggle to find love think they need matchmaking, but what they really need is to is get coaching to quantify their romantic needs, heal any attachment issues impacting their ability to receive love, and improve their dating skills to lasting love levels.
This makes lasting love not only possible, but inevitable.
