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.”

The Pandemic Has Brought Us Endless Swiping, But Has Made it Even Harder to Find Love | Elle Canada
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.

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!
