About
From renowned, fourth-generation matchmaker, Maria Avgitidis, comes a fresh, modern dating book that meets anyone navigating the world of dating and relationships where they're at, helping them to attract and grow the partnership of their dreams.
We've all heard the complaints and struggles of dating in today's world, where apps reign over real-life interactions and in-person meetups are routinely preceded by days of awkward messaging. Although it's hard to let go of the dream of a romcom-worthy meet cute, interfacing with the seemingly infinite number of promising dating apps is unavoidable—but swiping through those endless profiles can make a search for “The One” feel increasingly futile, not to mention the onslaught of questions that come up once you do enter a relationship: What if my partner doesn't want to be exclusive? How soon is too soon to move in together? Are soulmates even real?
