To become a part of juLuv's matchmaking service:
 

• Fill out juLuv's confidential online form.

• Interested in a More Active Approach?  If you are filling out the form for the first time, just let us know that you are interested in becoming a monthly member and we will connect with you directly.  If you do not pay, you'll still be a part of the database and may be selected for an introduction with one of our current members.

  • If you are already in the database, you can let us know through our this form that you are interested in the possibility of becoming a member.​

If/when matched:
 

• The Matchmaker contacts one person first, sharing only a first name + pertinent details about the other party. (Note that one person always has to be contacted before the other to avoid a conflict).

• If/when both parties agree to the introduction, each party will provide the Matchmaker a few options for availability for a date -- for example:

  • Tuesday, March 7th at 7 p.m.

  • Thursday, March 9th at 8 p.m.  

• Each party will be given the same date/time + suitable "meet" venue (we tend to prefer drinks or coffee at a quiet restaurant or coffeeshop - but we are always open to both parties’ preferences.

• Parties will refrain from canceling except in the case of an emergency, at which point they will give Matchmaker at least 12 hours notice of cancellation.

​

Before the Date:
 

• Matchmaker will provide each party with all pertinent information about the date, including time/date/location, as well as their date's cell phone # in case of emergency only (e.g. someone is running late, trouble finding one another, etc.).​ There is otherwise no need to reach out beforehand.  

​

Ending the Date:
 

• Even in the situation where the date has gone well, there is no need to ask the other person for a second date at that time (although that is certainly within your boundaries to do should you feel strongly).  We usually encourage each party to end with a simple "nice meeting you" and then follow up with the Matchmaker in order to avoid any potential awkwardness or embarrassment.

• For guidance on paying for the date, please see FAQ - Who Should Pay?
   

What Happens Next?
 

• After the date, each party will promptly provide Matchmaker with feedback, including whether you want to see this person again.  This allows Matchmakers to track and evaluate the system’s success as well as to provide constructive feedback.

• If both parties agree that they would like to see each other again, Matchmaker gives guidance to proceed with scheduling a second date, which the parties do on their own.  If either party is not interested, Matchmaker will respectfully communicate this with the other individual, and when possible, will give as much feedback as possible in order to provide constructive improvement opportunities.

• If the parties continue dating, we'll occasionally check in to see how things are going - and lend any advice we can along the way.  Many times, having a Matchmaker involved in the early stages of meeting someone can help pave the way for a successful relationship!
