TESTIMONIALS

FOR LADIES

Testimonial from Tina "Ms. Nelson who put aside another client to meet with me as she heard the heartbreak in my voice, immediately made me feel important.  Constantly encouraging me, supporting me and advising me. Thank you for your support, friendship, and your constant vigilance in assuring me that I would someday find my soulmate! I love you to death and admire the fact that you care so much for me (and all your other clients) and you are willing to do whatever it takes to help us with one of the biggest decisions in life---a life partner!!!!!!!  Love your client (and friend)" 

Testimonial from Christine & Joe "It has been almost a year, and who would have thought that after meeting with you once, you would have been able to pick out the perfect person for us.  We are now planning our wedding for the fall 2009.  Thank you!"

Testimonial from Caitlin "Thank you Maureen for matching me with Brendan.  I saw from the first date that he was the one for me.  I just got the news we are getting engaged this Chistmas 2010.  You are great at what you do!"

Testimonial from Lucy "I just had to tell you how impressed I am with your Matchmaking skills.  I was using Internet dating for years and only met with players.  My first match was with David, and you nailed it right on the head.  He was everything I asked you for.  A million thanks to you.  He asked me to marry him last night, and I wanted you to know that after we told our parents, you were the next person we told!" 

Testimonial from Linda, "Maureen thank you for making me feel so comfortable in your program.  I know I was hesitant the first day, but after seeing all your awards you won on your wall, really made me feel at ease.  During the six months until you matched me with Jim, you and your staff were so amazing.  I wish every business in New York did business the way you do.  You truly put the client first.  I accepted Jim's proposal this Valentine's Day 2011.  A million thank you's to you."

Testimonial from Karen, "I can't even think of the words to tell you how happy John and I are with eachother.  Thank you for suggesting that we give it a few dates, since I was so nervous on our first date, if you didn't suggest another one, we might not be getting married this 2011 Christmas.  But thanks to your expert dating coaching, we are.  Thank you."

For Men

Testimonial from Greg, "I just want to say thanks for a wonderful match. Siobhan is such a beautiful and lovely person in every way and we make a very fine couple.  I am so lucky to have met her and wanted to thank you for bringing us together.  As you well know, when two people find each other unlimited possibilities exist and now we can go forward as a couple and enjoy life as it is truly meant to be.  So although the road to get here was difficult until I heard of your service, once I joined, the payout is tremendous and well worth the journey.  Thank you for always being there for me.  I don't know how you ever put up with me.  You truly are the most patient person I know."

Testimonial from Paul, "Maureen I am going to tell everyone I know how excellent your service is.  You matched me up with Roslynn and we have been together every day since we met.  Now I know why compatibility and chemistry are both so important, as you mentioned.  You hit a home run on this one, and I plan on asking her Father this weekend for her hand in marriage."

Testimonial from MH "Maureen, you should tell every guy out there, if they have exhausted all posibilities of meeting girls from their friends, they should come to you.  You're like having a friend with lots of single, pretty girlfriends!"

Testimonial from Daniel "I went to Maureen Nelson's Private Matchmaking service recently.  I admit to having been skeptical about this type of service.  However, when you meet and talk with Ms. Nelson, the genuine nature of her personality shows her commitment to her profession.  Therefore, any skepticism quickly goes away.  As a result, Maureen Tara Nelson's services are recommended to anyone who is serious about finding their match."

Testimonial from Bob "I met the most beautiful girl in the world from you, who is not only compatible to me, as you promised, but I have so much chemistry with her.  I can never thank you enough for finding me my soul mate."

Testimonial from the former owner of the Rosyln country club "Thank you for matching me with the most beautiful woman in the world.  You really have saved my life."

Testimonial from Curtis, "I have to admit when you met me and told me you knew I would have very quick success, I was a little apprehensive.  But you were right.  You really know your stuff.  As promised to you, my buddies will now be joining your service as well.  Thank you Maureen."

Testimonial from Bruce, "thank you so much Maureen for finding me my soul mate.  Jenny and I just went ring shopping." 

Testimonial from Fred, "I wanted to take a moment to thank you personally for giving your clients a free monthly party.  It is such a great way for all of us to see each other in person and see that everyone does look better in person.  Thank you also for your advice.  You were right when I initially said no to Karen and you told me how beautiful she is and that I was "crazy."  When I saw her at the party I was shocked at how beautiful she is.  We have been dating for over six months now and are very happy.  It is very thoughtful and kind of you to take the time and effort to plan a monthly party for us.  I hope everyone realizes how lucky we are that you do this for us.  Thank you again!"

Testimonial from Frank, "I'm sure in your line of business and having over 1000 clients you must run across a lot of people that are hard to deal with.  I just wanted to thank you and your great staff for always being so positive and professional with me.  I would imagine people don't usually take the time to actually thank you for all you do.  I see what you do for all of us.  I've had five great dates with girls that I will definitely stay friends with.  My sixth match is the one!  She is perfect in every way.  She even told me that you made a special call into her telling her how perfect we are for each other, and that is why she said yes to me.  You are the best.  I want every one out there to know how personalized this service is, and how you changed my life forever!"

Testimonial from Bill, "I have to take the time to personally thank you for all the extra things to do for your clients to help make them successful like you did for me and Laura.  I am asking Laura to be my wife this 2011 Christmas, so any last minute dating coaching would be greatly appreciated.  But seriously Maureen, I personally own a business so I know all the challenges that you must go through. Throughout the entire process of my being a client with you, both Laura and I feel that you are amazing at what you do.  Everyone should know what great hands they are in if they really are ready to meet a beautiful, serious minded person. The best place they can be is in your hands and that of your fantastic, professional staff.  A million thank you's."
