Whydidyou join IJL?
I’d gone through a divorce in 2009,
and I lived in a really happenin’ area of
Minneapolis called Uptown. Even though
I was having a lot of fun, I knew I wasn’t
going to meet somebody who I’d want to
spend the rest of my life with in that kind
of lifestyle. Going out to a bar scene was a
crapshoot. Same thing goes for online dat-
ing. I dabbled in it, but all my experiences
were negative. So I called It’s Just Lunch.

Howdid IJLmakedatingeasier?
I was travelling, on planes, at hotels, and
dating was a challenge. Being a member
of It’s Just Lunch is like having trusted
friends set youup, but evenbetter, because
they’re professionals. They know what
they’re doing, and they do everything for
you. Date, time, where to go. They even
worked with restaurants in advance so
there wouldn’t be any awkward moments.
To have someone doing the work on the
back endwas such a blessing.
Would you recommend IJL to other
busyprofessionals?

executives would agree with that. It’s the
best money I ever invested. It’s nothing
compared to a lifetime of happiness and
beingwithmy life’s adventure partner.

employed the art of matchmaking and hired It’s Just Lunch (IJL). It worked! Happily married for
