What
is the age range of your clients?
We
are an adult relationship service. Clients' ages range
from 21 to individuals who are well into their 80s! One of
our recent marriages (Valentine's Day, 2004), featured
a couple whose ages were 77 and 82.
Can
I specify the age range of my desired ‘match'?
Yes
- within reason. Our objective is to find a match that meets
your
precise
requirements. Of course, your ‘match' will
have to be looking for someone in your age range, too.
How
much does your service cost?
We
provide a variety of options that will meet your objectives and
budget. Our
service is value-oriented and competitively
priced when compared with the popular computer matching
services.
This
becomes apparent when you consider the many hours you spend on
your computer versus the time you spend
with
The
Relationship
Co., as well as the personal relationships you
enjoy with our staff.
Your
personal relationship advisor will explain your program options
for you.
What
makes you different from computer dating services?
We
work personally with every client who uses our program, and
our interview process identifies unique personality
traits that
no computer profile can capture.
Also,
if you have ever been on a computer service, you know how many
hours you
spend browsing profiles,
answering
e-mails,
going
on dead-end dates, etc. At The Relationship Company,
you get to keep your time for yourself because
we do all the
screening and
profiling, and we deliver only the highest-quality,
pre-screened matches for you.
Finally,
our clients are not "browsers." Every
individual who subscribes to our service is committed
to finding a lifelong
partner. Our clients invest their hard-earned
money in a program dedicated to helping them achieve
this objective.
This factor
substantially reduces the margin for error that
exists when you use a computer
dating service.
Do you guarantee a ‘match'?
No
one can predict how a relationship will evolve. Our objective
is
to connect you with an individual
who meets
the specific
criteria you provide regarding what you are looking
for in a lifetime
partner (not just someone to "date").
After the two of you make the first connection,
it is up
to the two of you
to proceed in
a manner that is mutually appropriate.
For
more than half of our clients, we create matches that
result in healthy relationships of a year or
more, and
many of our clients
eventually marry a partner whom they met through
The
Relationship Co.
How
soon will I meet someone?
As
soon as we identify an appropriate candidate – an
individual who matches up with you as well
as you do with him or her. Typically,
you will receive your first referral within
two weeks of your consultation with us.
Am
I required to meet a ‘match' that you
recommend?
No. We will provide you
with information about a potential match,
but it is up to
you to determine
if you want
to meet that person.
You have the option of declining, but we
do recommend that you at least communicate
with that individual
by telephone
before you
make your decision. Our matches are carefully
created to meet the requirements of both
partners. We always
suggest
that you meet
a selected match.
When
I used a computer service, I met a man who presented himself
as single but was really
married.
That was
very traumatic. Can
this happen with your service?
It
has never happened, and our thorough
screening process (which includes a
criminal background
check for all
candidates) makes
it highly unlikely that it will ever
occur. It is extremely doubtful that
a married individual
of either gender
would pay for our service
and successfully complete the screening
process. It is fairly easy to create
a false identity
when filling
out
a computer
profile,
but very difficult for an impostor
to deceive a trained relationship advisor.
Essentially,
we offer a trustworthiness
that is simply not available through
a computer
dating service.

For example, if
you live in Connecticut and don't
mind meeting someone who lives in Vermont, we take
that into
consideration when performing
your personal

If you want to limit your search geographically,
we will respect
your preference.
