There is someone to ask: “What’s he/she like?” before meeting a new person for the first time. The social connection establishes an element of trust and legitimacy.
But what if that kind of introduction doesn’t happen? Even though we live in an age of digital connectivity, our social circles become more limited the older we get. We spend a lot of time at work and don’t have time to build networks outside the workplace. This is particularly true for those who have relocated from a different city or country. At some point in our lives, our networks may consist mostly of married couples with children, and we may feel that you are the last single person left on the planet. The person we would like to talk to at a gallery or in a bar (if we even go to bars) may be gone by the time we have worked up the courage to approach him or her; the perfect pick-up line enters our heads about an hour too late.
Meeting a total stranger whom you have discovered in an online dating portal can be daunting. The social reference framework is missing and we must trust the information the person shares with us. There is no-one to ask: “What is he/she like?”
The Internet dating scene can be harsh. There is an enormous offering of profiles, and it is almost impossible to tell whether reality matches the description. In the world of clicks and swipes, love has become a replaceable commodity with fast, but rarely deep, encounters.
Luxdates offers a different approach. We meet every client in person and in a deep conversation go through their biography, their relationship history, their values and beliefs, and their hopes and dreams for the future. After the face-to-face meeting, we write a profile which is general enough so that our clients cannot be identified (a feature that is much appreciated, especially in Luxembourg), yet so individual that one gets a sense of the person behind the profile. We use no photographs. We ask our clients to provide proof of identification: this gives an added layer of security and we make sure that people are who they say they are. When we have a match, we send the anonymous profiles to each prospective partner. If both parties agree, we make an introduction either via email or directly in person (After about 15 minutes or so, when the ice is broken, we leave the prospective couple to enjoy their evening without our company). After every date, we ask for feedback, which helps us calibrate further and we stay close to both our clients during the initial getting-to-know-you phase and are there to help with questions.
Our clients base is comprised of doctors, lawyers, business owners, artists, politicians, writers, etc. whose lives have led them from all over the world to Luxembourg. 98% of our clients have a Bachelor’s Degree as their minimum education. One could say that Luxdates is the preferred Introduction Agency for educated and sophisticated singles.
