Concept
" The wrong person is someone who stonewalls, always blames you, or blanks out—saying things like “it’s not my responsibility,” “it was easier with my ex,” or “why are you being so difficult.” They are refusing the work of love.
The solution is an attitude of indulgence, curiosity, patience and calm consideration of the flaws that unite us all.
There is no right person; there is a good enough person.
Compatibility is not a precondition of love.
Compatibility is the fruit of love.
In romantic culture, if you like a blue curtain and they like a green curtain, they tell you to get out.
The idea that you should find a perfect person who clicks immediately is a destructive idea.
A good enough person is someone who will engage with the business of working towards compatibility. They won't assume you are wrong because there are problems. They know how to repair a crisis, listen, be curious, and be patient. "
Survival - date 1 concept
In survival mode, dating feels like competition or war. It’s about winning and losing. Rejection hurts, leaving traumas and scars. You gather resources and weapons to “win.”
These weapons include masks, strategies, games, and curated personalities—defense mechanisms.
Money, resources, looks, and personality may get you a foot in the door, but insecurity and a lack of inner foundation will pull you back.
Advancement:
You may fall into victim–abuser–rescuer dynamics. You put others on a pedestal or are placed on one. There are unhealthy attachment styles. When real, healthy love appears, you enter fight-or-flight. At the first sign of conflict you can’t resolve, you run away or shift responsibility onto others. You seek love and respect from everyone.
Security - date 2 concept
In security mode, you have your own “kingdom.” You seek a partner—like a prince or princess from another kingdom—to expand your influence and strengthen your position.
You look for approval from family and community, external validation, and a strong sense of justification beliefs.
Yet there is often a familiar pattern: not being loved properly, repeated again and again.
Your “arsenal” includes advantages—money, status, appearance, personality, and opportunity.
Advancement:
You find someone of similar status, creating a sense of comfort and stability. The relationship may feel ideal, but love becomes conditional. Old patterns of unhealthy love can repeat. You seek love and respect from your community your people.
Thriving - date 3 concept
In thriving mode, you become “nobody” in dating—in the best sense. You are authentic and internally aligned.
Instead of defending your ego or hiding mistakes, you take responsibility for your actions. You face reality honestly, and that honesty becomes powerful.
You feel gratitude and love more easily.
There is sincerity, a willingness to learn, and the courage to take risks for growth. You act with intention and commit to your heart’s desires.
Advancement:
You recognize patterns and break unconscious cycles. You develop genuine love and respect for yourself. Love and respect from others is not needed.
Joy - date 4 concept
Joy in love comes from humility and humor—the recognition that none of us fully understands anything.
We are, in a way, two imperfect people—two “lovable idiots”—helping each other find the way.
This is the spirit needed for love: generosity, mutual forgiveness, and lightness.
With this comes clarity about your own shadow and ego, the ability to embrace and manage them, and the capacity to understand others more deeply.
Advancement: gratitude, love and respect flow—both for yourself and for another.
The difference between joy and happiness is depth and origin. Joy comes from overcoming something difficult—it’s deeper, more meaningful, and often longer-lasting. It’s what you feel after growth, struggle, or transformation, and I desire all to experience that kind of joy at this event. Happiness, on the other hand, is temporary and external—simple pleasures like a good meal or getting attention from someone attractive.
I intend to bring together people who are “good enough” for each other—connections that feel natural, aligned, and energetically complementary. This event is a space to explore both yourself and the person you’re meeting, without the usual noise.
Some of you are here for fun, adventure, and unpredictability. Others are here for something steady, certain, and long-term. Both are welcome. What matters is honesty about what you want and respect for what others want.
At the core, most people are looking for a genuine connection—someone present, emotionally grounded, and real—whether that leads to something light or something lasting.
This event is about showing up as you are, with openness and self-awareness. Not perfection—just presence, accountability, and a willingness to engage beyond surface-level expectations.
There’s no fee to attend, so the value comes from how you show up. Bring curiosity instead of judgment. Leave comparison and assumptions at the door—connection happens fastest when people feel seen, not evaluated.
This event will move forward when the right mix of people are ready to participate with intention. If not, it will be postponed. I care more about the quality of the experience than forcing it to happen.
If it’s meant to come together, it will. I’ll reach out about a week before the event with details.

Waitlist: Straight Singles Matchmaking Mixer
Union Square, East 17th Street between 4th and 5th Aves,, New York, NY, US-Concept for mixer and 5 Practice Dates is on meetup group page
-Details for Mixer & 5 Practice Dates is on meetup event page ( see below )-Waitlist: Straight Singles Mixer
*** I now process matchmaking for each mixer event. One week before the event, 20 male and 20 female will required to email or text me to be in the Matchmaking process.
This is not a regular mixer. You will be thoughtfully paired with someone compatible and go through five guided practice dates together.
The journey unfolds in three stages: building connection, recognizing love, and becoming love.You may ask, after matchmaking for compatibility why do I have to go through the 5 practice dates?
Matchmaking can trigger insecurity if someone feels the partner is “too good” for them. That gap creates tension—either they grow into it, or they sabotage it by avoiding or undermining the connection to match their current self-worth. So it’s not just about compatibility, but whether they can allow, build, and sustain something good.
