    Krystal and her team were amazing! they were so attentive and helpful. It was scary getting back into the dating game after a divorce, but the process of hiring a matchmaker made the process easy.

    She is good! I had a nasty divorce never thought I'd date or eat a meal with another person unless i drove to visit my mother or daughter. She helped me build me up. I have met good ladies in Edmonton and Calgary! She has quailty clients.
    • Thank you Lee, we enjoyed working with you.

    Krystal was transparent from the start. I was sceptical at first as I have tried other matchmaking services that made promises that were a massive let down. Krystal helped make the set-up process easy, and I was impressed that I would receive 3 years of unlimited matches, unlike other services that have offered me a limited amount of matches. I've had some good matches thus far and look forward to my matches going forward. Overall I would recommend her service.
    • Thank you Val, So happy you are matched up! Loved working with you.

    Was happy that Krystal offered coaching services to help ease me back into the dating scene. I'm recently divorced and wasn't sure if I was ready to start dating again, and needed a service that was confidential. With Krystal's support and expertise I felt confident enough to go on a few dates with some great matches.

    Thanks for your help, Krystal

    Really happy that my friend recommended Krystal and her team. I was tired of the dating websites and apps and needed the one-on-one support Krystal offered. She answered all my questions and helped me find my perfect match. Would recommend!
    • Thank You Sara. We loved working with you. Happy you found what works.

    I highly recommend Krystal and her team!
    I have tried using EHarmony, Match and Apps to get myself out there and meet people. My experience with the Websites and Apps were a complete disappointment. From individuals not reading my profile to see we didn't have the same interests or wants in life. I also felt like it was playing a game asking questions, answer questions which I feel should be more of an in person interaction. A friend introduced me to Krystal and it was so refreshing.

    Krystal 
    takes the time to talk with you about what your looking for. In addition, prepped me for the individuals that she matched me with and would follow up the next day to see how the dates went and would provide feedback. She matched me with some amazing individuals and made the experience enjoyable and not a pain. Today a lot of people hide behind their phone or computer and it was so nice that there is a rule in place that there is not texting at first, pick up the phone and call the match.

    Through Krystal, I was able to meet an amazing individual! Thank you so much Krystal!
    • Thank you we have enjoyed working with you.

    After my divorce, I wasn’t into dating women I was into my kids and work until this past year I was ready to get back into the dating world. It’s hard to meet people in Calgary so I decided to research matchmakers in the area. I came across Krystal and set up an appointment. Krystal is terrific. She is friendly, professional, and an amazing listener. Within the first meeting Krystal was able to figure out what I was looking for in a woman. Krystal took the time to really get to know me and match me with compatible ladies. She had been very efficient and effective with my matches. I’ve already recommended Krystal to a few of my divorced friends who are ready to look for love again.
    • Thank You Liam, We loved working with you.

What a joke of a service. Her database is terrible and the search criteria is very vague. You are best to join a dating app or Facebook. They are out for your money not to find a partner that meets yours criteria. I wish I never spend the expensive cost for a poor service.

"The Pandemic Has Brought Us Endless Swiping, But Has Made it Even Harder to Find Love"/ "Celebrating a Cyber Valentine's in 2021"

Feb. 12, 2021 "The Pandemic Has Brought Us Endless Swiping, But Has Made it Even Harder to Find Love": This is by Randi Bergman on Elle Canada.  This mentions Krystal Walter Matchmaking: 


Early on in the pandemic, I engaged in what I thought was going to be an exciting but short-lived experiment: a series of virtual dates from the comfort of my own couch. The idea felt novel. Dating without (fully) getting dressed? 

Without having to spend money or schlep across the city? Sign me up! A few weeks later, though, I was deflated after spending multiple nights on FaceTime and Houseparty (remember Houseparty?) having lacklustre, unfocused conversations that ended unceremoniously when one or both parties got tired or wanted to go finish binge-watching Tiger King. 

When restrictions eased over the summer, I dabbled in park meet-ups and neighbourhood strolls, but the results were the same: With no clear game plan in sight, the connections just…fizzled.

Almost a year after the first lockdown, not much has changed, and the ongoing global ban on human contact is making it harder than ever to date. “I’m of a certain age and I want a baby, but the pandemic is slowing my search for a partner with whom to do that,” says June*, a Toronto-based production manager.

Like many, June swiped to her heart’s content early on in the pandemic but found many of the resulting conversations to be rootless. “I don’t want a pen pal,” she says. According to Tinder and Bumble, both messaging and swiping were up by double-digit percentages by the end of 2020 compared to the period preceding the pandemic. What’s less clear, though, is whether these stats resulted in dates or long-term romance. “I ended up taking a break from [the apps] because it was too much,” adds June. “I didn’t have the brain capacity to continue with mindless conversations.”

Akua Boateng, a Philadelphia-based psychotherapist who specializes in relationships and couples therapy, says that taking a break is common—and even advisable—among those who are struggling with online dating. 

“The idea of being on an app can sometimes be triggering and traumatic for individuals who have a history of not finding connection and closeness,” she says. According to Boateng, the pandemic is prompting people to seek solace wherever they can get it. “I have found that a lot of people are going back to a former partner because [they’re] seeking comfort and security,” she says. “Or it could be they’re looking for a connection—not a long term relationship—whether it be physical intimacy or someone to hang out with and talk to.”

Lasting connection is possible, but finding it takes a little more creativity. When I asked a few friends if they’d been trying any alternatives to apps, one jokingly replied, “I’m waiting for someone to break into my apartment.” 

Calgary-based matchmaker Krystal Walter says that she has seen an uptick in requests from people who went app- crazy early in the pandemic but quickly became fatigued. Her clients are experienced, sometimes divorced and clear about what they’re looking for. 

She first aims to match people based on their core interests, such as family, travel or occupation. 

“After I find out the basics of what’s important to you, my team and I really get to know you as a person,” explains Walter. 

“What do you enjoy talking about? 

What would an ideal date look like for you? 

Once I get to know you on a deeper level, that’s when I start making connections.”

Walter’s services run upwards of $3,500 for a three-year contract and attract a certain type of clientele: professionals—from young to middle-aged—who have expendable income to invest in a tailored dating experience. 

“I think it attracts guys who are more serious about dating,” says Rachel*, one of Walter’s clients. “With the guys I talked to, even if I didn’t fully connect with them, I could tell that they weren’t here to mess around—they wanted the same things. They took it seriously.”

Rachel, an executive assistant, says that the pandemic presented her with an opportunity—after years of travelling and spending time with friends—to change gears and focus on long-term goals. 

“It just kind of made me think: ‘Okay, a lot of people’s lives have slowed down. If I’m going to have a good chance at meeting someone, now feels like a good time,’” she says. Rachel had virtual dates with three men before finding a match with the person she is currently seeing.

Boateng says that finding love in the time of the coronavirus could go old school. “As we create these little silos of safety and social pods, we may find that people are moving toward more traditional ways of meeting people, like through someone they know,” she says. In fact, it happened for June, quite by luck, after she eschewed the apps. 

“One day in the fall, a friend called me and there was another guy [on the line with her],” she says. Her friend explained that she knew the guy and had discovered that he’d swiped right on June on Tinder but that June hadn’t reciprocated—a Tinder missed connection. “I ended up meeting him, and we have been dating for the past few months,” she says.

As for me, I’m exploring the world of matchmaking with Walter. She has forced me to be clear about what I want in ways that could steer me in a different direction from the one I’ve been heading over the past year. “I always tell people that [humans are] one of the most resilient creatures on the planet,” says Boateng. “We will find connection in any way we can.”

Feb. 10, 2021 "Celebrating a Cyber Valentine's in 2021": Today I found this article by Krissy Van on CTV news.  This mentions Krystal Walters Matchmaking: 

VANCOUVER -- Will you be my cyber valentine?

For those online dating, this will be the reality in 2021 due to the pandemic.

Matchmaker and dating expert Krystal Walter joined CTV Morning Live to share ideas for romance together while apart.

Zoom dating has gained popularity over the last year.

To make Valentine's Day special Walter shared that there are many ways to elevate the typical Zoom date.

Partaking in an online cooking class, playing online games and even doing a virtual yoga class together are great ways to mix it up.

Gifting for Valentine's Day can often feel stressful when dating.

Walter said if you haven't been dating for longer than two months it's too soon to get a Valentine's Day gift.

If you haven't met in person, she said, you should not give out your address.

If you have an office address or PO Box, that is a better option.

For those who have been dating longer and want to send a gift, Walter recommended a gift card to enjoy takeout from a local restaurant or creating a gift basket with all the essentials for relaxing at home.

On the show, Walter highlighted one of the biggest online dating trends surrounding Valentine's: Astrolove is when people look for compatability based on their zodiac signs.

Tons of singles are adding zodiac signs to their dating profiles.

Even for those that don't take their horoscopes too seriously, this can be an excellent conversation starter.

Although the goal is to find love, Walter did caution against online romantic scams this time of year.

People should never send money or gifts cards online to someone they have not met.

A big red flag is if someone is expressing deep, romantic feelings very early on.

Scammers unfortunately love to prey on people's emotions.
