How I Became An Online Dating Coach

I came full circle — from doing online dating to using the skills I learned to help others in the same endeavor. I was in the trenches, so I know what it's like to go through the trials and tribulations of online dating. And it's no easy task. When people tell me, "You're so lucky you found Jeremy," I have to laugh a little. Yes — I am extremely lucky for having found such a thoughtful, smart, and (not to mention) good-looking guy. But was it luck or persistence that led me to him?

I'd venture to say a little of both, and now I get to help other people in their effort to do the same. And it's always so rewarding, like when a client came to me recently and said, "We've decided to date exclusively and see where things go. I want to thank you for your awesome profile writing. My profile is what he said caught his attention. He said it was well-written, and he could see what I was like and what I liked." 20 Rules For Your First Online Date

Plus, I have a boyfriend who doesn't mind that I have to go to singles events all the time for work. Now, that's supportive!
