Poject Soulmate's Lori Zaslow and Jennifer Zucher |
Love is in the air! Last week was Valentine's Day and pretty soon people everywhere will be catching
" spring fever" ! There couldn't a better time to chat with Bravo TV's resident LOVE BROKERS, Lori Zaslow and Jennifer Zucher, of
Project Soulmate, to get a few tips should you find your self single and looking for that special someone!
Lori and Jennifer are very busy gals...balancing personal relationships ( both happily married to their own soulmates) , between motherhood, working , appearances, and giving back through various charities!
Here Project Soulmate takes some time out to answer a few questions as they are always happy to help anyone find a soulmate of their own!
BC: Tell me about Project Soulmate and how it started?
PS: We started 4 years ago. We were always setting up friends and thought it would great to turn our passion into a business. We are a matchmaking service based out of NYC catering to the relationship minded individual looking for their special someone.
BC: How long have you to known each other and worked together?
PS: We have worked together for 4 years and have known each other since sleep away camp (close to 30 years ago). We reconnected after many years at the gym, right after college.
BC: How did Bravo TV find Project Soulmate for the reality show Love Broker?
PS: They had a casting agent looking for a matchmaking company in NYC. A friend of ours made the introduction and the love affair began!
BC: Tell me your thoughts on soulmates ... do you believe that you are you with yours?
PS: Yes we definitely feel that our husbands are our Soulmates! Both of us believe that there is more than one Soulmate out there for us. You never know when you are going to meet a Soul mate. Always keep your heart and soul open, the universe can surprise you.
BC: How do you think dating has changed since you started Project Soulmate?
PS: Online dating has taken a piece of the pie in the single arena. For that reason our business has evolved into guiding and collaborating with people’s online profiles. Originally, when they first came to us they were only able to do a selective search.
BC: What do you think about the book “The Rules"? ...and speaking of rules what are a few of your rules or commandments of dating?
PS: We are not a big fan of that book although we do have our own dating etiquette...
No Ex talk! No one wants to hear about other dudes and ladies on a date, especially your "Exes". It's an
instant turn off. The more they like you, the less they want to imagine you with someone else. And it won't
make them like you more, no matter what angle you take!
Live in the moment. Don't talk about the future with your date. A fast way to ruin a good thing is to put pressure on the future too soon. Dating should be fun! Save the future talk for when it's really necessary, and in a less formal setting.
If you know you like the person before the first date ends, you should subtly express interest in another date. Also a hug and a casual kiss on the cheek at the end of every date will end it warmly and make you look good. Even if it wasn't a good match...you never know who they may want to introduce you to!
You must spend no less than one hour on your blind date. You do not leave your date after 15 minutes even if you think it's not going well. Open your mind to giving it ONE hour of your undivided attention and energy!
BC: Are you in to astrology and do you think that really matters with comparability?
PS Lori : I am more into astrology, where Jenn is more traditional. I do believe that people have certain traits of their sign, although , in my opinion, that does not come into play when it comes to love.
BC: What are some great first date ideas?
PS: Ice skating, bowling, ping pong…any physical activity, but not too physical save that for later!
BC: Who should secure the second date and when?
PS: We generally recommend letting the man initiate the invitation for the 2nd date, for most cases. He should do that on the first date if there is any connection/attraction. No point in waiting and playing phone tag. Don’t want too much time to pass so the momentum is no longer there! Someone else could snatch her up!
BC: Valentine’s Day was last Thursday what are some ideas for my readers to make sure that in the future that the day is successful and special?
PS: Thoughtfulness is priceless. A card, a box of chocolates, or a cute sticky note to say something authentic from your heart. Your partner knows you, so if you are not the type to bring diamond earrings, don’t. Stick to who you are!
BC: What can we expect in the future from Project Soul mate ?
PS: We have our new love oil (filled with aphrodisiacs) for women called Gravitate. We are big believers that smell is a big factor in attraction!
BC: Every please check the Project Soul mate website below for details!
PS: Thank you Billy!
BC: Thank you for chatting with me! I am sure we will be seeing and hearing a lot more about
Project Soulmate soon!
There you have it! Knowledge is power... especially in affairs of the heart! There is someone for everyone so don't give up! If you find that you are in need of assistance the ladies of Project Soulmate will definitely help you put your best dating foot forward and lead you to love ( and maybe your own soulmate) what they are doing is a wonderful service and that's the way I see it Xx Billy Charles
