Finding Your Feet After a Break-up

Taking a step back into the dating world after the end of a long-term relationship is no small feat. For professionals who balance demanding careers with their personal lives, it represents an even greater challenge – finding time for swiping, messaging and countless dates.

Beyond this, dating after a break-up can often mean embracing an entirely new landscape that may feel foreign after years of stability. There’s the apprehension of opening up to someone new, the vulnerability of exposing your true self again, and the looming question of whether you’re truly ready for this step. Our executive matchmakers intimately understand this life stage and have worked closely with clients to support them through it, guiding them towards their next relationship at the pace they require.

Working with Maclynn’s Matchmakers

Founded in 2011, before the swipe-right era had taken hold, Maclynn has been a pioneer in redefining how dating should be – personal, thoughtful and with a touch of class. Our goal is to ease the burden of your journey back into dating, ensuring it’s as seamless and rewarding as possible.

We achieve this through our distinctive, psychology-led methodology, tailored specifically to those navigating the dating scene after a long-term relationship has ended. The process starts with a comprehensive profiling session conducted by your dedicated matchmaker. This session delves into your core values, your vision for the ideal partner, and your aspirations for a future relationship. It’s a personalised approach, taking into account your past experiences to forge a pathway to a successful, enduring partnership.

How We Find Your Ideal Next Partner

At Maclynn, we believe that this compatibility is both an art and a science. You’re searching for the type of chemistry that makes your heart flutter, a connection that supersedes your previous relationships. Finding these exceptional matches on dating apps, particularly as you juggle a high-flying career, is often easier said than done. 

The breakdown of a long-term relationship offers a window into how your relationship needs and goals have changed, and the type of person you’re looking for. By partnering with our high-end introduction agency, you’ll acknowledge these changes, enabling you to date more authentically. Your professional matchmaker will conduct a bespoke search for you, personally meeting each match to verify their compatibility and ensuring that no stone is left unturned in the search for your ultimate partner. With our matchmakers at your side, your next relationship will start in the best position for long-term success.
