Matchmaking Tips: Out With the Old and In With The New...love
Every year the Jewish Center of the Hamptons has an incredible yard sale. Visitors come from all over to line up at 7AM for a 10AM start! So of course, me being the avid shopper that I am- I was there at 9AM SHARP!!!
Just when I thought that my morning couldn't get any better...as soon as I walked in I saw the most gorgeous dark curly haired man leaning up against the fence with a puzzled expression on his face.
"Your first time?" I asked.
"I'm General Counsel at a big law firm way out on Long Island."
"So you're smart and good looking!...so of course my next question had to be... do you have a girlfriend?? I asked.
"And why would I need a matchmaker, I'm only 36." he quickly responded.
"Maybe I do need to slow things down a little..but we'll just have to wait and see." he smiled.
With me, you never know where you'll meet a client!
Serious Matchmaking Inc. Presents "Flirting with Fennel"
Serious Matchmaking Inc. Presents Flirting with Fennel
Doing what I do best, no not matchmaking, my second passion- shopping! Although not for me this time! I was food shopping for all of my guests for the biggest matchmaking weekend of the summer-
July 4th! in the Hamptons of course!
Walking around minding my own business, or not! I overheard a woman speaking to her husband about “fennel”.
Hmm....fennel!? I love fennel! I thought.
So of course, I ask the husband, “Which is fennel? What do you do with it? Which part do you eat?” Do you have to peel it?”
Haha- can you tell I’ve never cooked fennel before!
Out of left field – I hear: “Frank, you have to charge her for all of this information- no freebies,” said this BEYOND handsome man standing 3 feet away, (wearing a Princeton t-shirt I might add).
“Just because you went to Princeton , doesn’t mean you’re so smart!” I said jokingly.
“Haha, No, worse! I didn’t go to Princeton , I paid for someone to go,” he responded.
“Oh yeah, son or daughter?” I questioned him.
“Oh?? What does he do,let me guess... a banker of course at Goldman Sachs?”
“No, he’s a diplomat! He’s forty, never married and lives in the city now,” he said,
Never married?” I asked.(of course this was music to my ears)
“Maybe he isn’t interested in women.”(OK thats something my RADAR didn't even think of !!) He recently has a partner! He’s a great guy… Well, what about me? I’m single!
“Whoa, really? Where do you live?” I asked him. (my matchmaking radar in full gear)
“Go figure, everyone says they’re from Palm Beach .”
“No, but unlike all the other guys I really am from Palm Beach., but staying out here with these friends for the week!”
After further interrogation in front of the produce counter, I found out that he was in his sixties,a WEALTHY retired gentleman….my kind of client!

Matchmaker Spots Hottie in Aisle 3!
Sunday June 28,2009
Matchmaker Spots Hottie in Aisle 3!
Before I put my matchmaker’s hat on and begin my day at the beach, I decided to make a quick trip to the grocery store, King Kullen, in the Bridgehampton Commons of course. What I had planned to be a quick “in and out” trip, turned out to be more than I bargained for.
Thinking that the store would be empty, (being a beach day), I was pleasantly surprised, when I found myself standing on line behind a BEYOND HANDSOME man.(A matchmaker's delight!!)
Although this guy was hotter than hot, he had an angry look on his face; anyone would think he was ready to EXPLODE! Normally, this would be anyone’s queue to “stay away! But you know me!!!!! Shy miss matchmaker.
So, I slide my way in between him and the five other people in line (of course in my “World’s Coolest Mom” t-shirt”).
“Well what are you so angry about?” I asked.
Looking at me with the “get away from me face” he said, “This is the last place I want to be on a Sunday ...and the help here is Awful!” The whole month of June has been an absolute wash! This is not why I pay 500k for my summer."
“It costs you 500k to rent your house here? WOW…Where do YOU live??” I asked extremely interested.
“No, I don’t rent a house, I own a house in Sagaponack,” He responded.
The most expensive zip code in the country, I might add! Boy, would I love to see his estate!
“So you’re from the
“Nope, I’m from
Changing the subject quickly, I got right to the point.
“So why are you doing all the grocery shopping- and not your wife?”(My way of confirming his bare ring finger)
“I guess she’s just smarter than me.” He said.
“Oh? and how many kids do you have?" I asked.
“Four kids, what are you a detective ?” he questioned me.
(I get that a lot!) “Not quite” I smirked.
As I passed over my card, he smiled back at me for the first time during our conversation...
“You know…You’re much better looking when you smile…” I said.
As you can see, picking up guys isn’t as hard as everyone thinks, it can happen anywhere and at anytime…and a married man, can be just as good as a single one…because trust me some of my best referrals are from my “random run- ins” with married men!
Matchmakers Double Take
Matchmakers DOUBLE TAKE
June 20, 2009
Everyone who is familiar with my matchmaking services,knows that my summers are spent in my Bridgehampton office and what better place is filled with plenty of GREAT events and benefits to go to all summer. All of which I try to attend, not only for the good cause, but a great way to network!
Last Saturday, I attended with a very lucky women Julie ,( who was about to learn where and how to pick up men)
the Love Heals Benefit @ Luna Farm… (Which had to be moved indoors because of the rain!!?) A very upscale venue for me to do some matchmaking of course!
As we were walking around scoping the scene, I thought I saw my first celebrity sighting of the summer…normally I wouldn’t be too phased- but I had just seen the new movie, Proposal with hottie Ryan Reynolds- I had a double take when his look alike walked by.
“I have a question, did you see the new movie, Proposal with that hotter than hot guy, Ryan Reynolds- that I might add you look 10x better than?!” I said.
Flustered and blushing, this 6”2, tall, dark and handsome man just said, “Thank you!”
His reserved and shy attitude didn’t bother me in the least. I still drilled him with my usual questions. I come to find out that “my movie star” was in his 30s, never married and living in the city, and of course owns a house in the
Although, when I asked him about his occupation, He quickly responded with, “I do a lot of things...”
(Rich I said to myself).
Hmm? But before I had time to ask him about his job, over walks this tall gorgeous skinny blonde!
“You must be her next target! Janis hones in on the hottest guys- she probably wants you to be on her matchmaking roster… or maybe a client? she interrupted.
Some of you would probably think that she may have ruined things, but believe me, nothing phases me! Without hesitation, I passed my card over…
“You really think I need a matchmaker?!” he said.
“Well you are at this event flying solo… so you tell me?” I asked.
When I had a moment alone with “Barbie”, she had told me that my “movie star” was a player, go figure!
Hey- you can’t win them all! But no harm in trying….on to the next!
As usual he will be back after he is done playing around ……..THEY ALL ARE EVENTUALLY!!!!!!!!!!
Matchmakers Walk of Shame
June 19, 2009
Year of the Matchmaker
It was a matchmaker’s dream Friday night in the
Walking into one of the hottest restaurants in the
“Why do you look like you’re leaving so early? No luck picking up the ladies?!” I said obnoxiously.
Laughing at my approach, He responded with “No, we’re probably going to head to Savannahs- pick up some girls there!” he said smirking to his friend.
“Ha-ha, of course you are! So where’s you’re house in the
“I’m staying with a friend in
“Guys night out… I see” This was all too familiar, where did I know this guy from?
“Why do I think I’ve seen you before? He asked me before I could approach him with the same question.
“That’s easy- you’ve probably seen me in the media, my occupation revolves around that!” I said. ( Afterall I am
“So what publication is yours?” he asked.
“No, I don’t work with a publication, I’m just written up a lot on what I do!”
“On what you do?” ...Oh wait a minute, does you’re name begin with a “J”?
Simultaneously, as he came to the realization of who I was, I knew EXACTLY who I was talking to!
“I knew who you were!” Eric from
(If you haven’t realized by now, this is the SAME married guy who was hitting on every woman he came across during our week there!)
“Small world…and look at you- you are still BEYOND handsome but seriously disgusting! Still up to the same tricks! What are you doing here? And where are the wife and kids?” I yelled.
“Why? What’s the problem?”, he laughed.
Typical answer from a cheater…I thought.
“Why don’t you get back to your wife and kids?!” I said. And at the point, I immediately texted my assistant, Ashley- I knew she would get a kick out of this! (Of course letting him know I was blowing up his spot).
Eric walked away embarrassed and ashamed, (as he should be), although this time his walk of shame was not from a “successful” hookup the night before….hopefully lesson learned!

Matchmakers " CHIPS and SALSA"
Being the matchmaker I am, I was making my way around the Dallas Ritz, scouting for men of course! I spotted two young handsome men leaning up against the bar munching on peanuts. (Perfect for my matchmaking business)
“So what are you two handsome guys doing not speaking with any of the beautiful women in the bar?” I interrupted.
They both laughed.
“Actually he’s my lawyer- we’re having a meeting,” said the 6”4 gentlemen with the salt and pepper hair.
(I might add, that he was also a high end real estate developer- BINGO! My matchmaking radar hones in again)
Pretty casual meeting, I thought... “So are you a divorced lawyer?”
“Actually yes, I am.”
“And divorced with three or four kids? I asked.
“Ha-ha, yes I am, and I do have four, and John here has four as well.”
“What is this a
“Yes, well in the midst of getting a divorce, that’s why Bob is here!”
“Handles all your dirty work then, right?
“Something like that, and who handles yours?” he asked friskily.
And of course, as he prompted the question, my assistant Ashley comes into the conversation.
“So is this your daughter?” Asked John.
(The annoying line we always hear.)
“Nope, I’m her assistant!”
After exchanging introductions, Ashley quickly noticed that “our lawyer” resembled someone quiet popular.
“You know who you look like, you look like that actor on that old TV show, CHIPS…Eric Estrada??” she asked.
Both laughing, as if they have heard this plenty of times before.
“Yup, I’ve gotten that many times, I’m chips, and this is my partner salsa.”
“Clever…I like that “chips and salsa”…my favorite!
These two had the looks, brains and career- the perfect

Matchmakers" SOLE-MATE with the SHINEY SHOES"
Matchmaking tour…Off again, this time
“Well why not?” I said to myself. I could use a little buffer- my Prada's were a little dusty! Must keep my appearance up as
“So where are you flying to that you need your shoes shined?” as I sat down next to him.
“
“Lucky you, we’ll be on the same flight! Are you a
Of which he said, “I live in
“What do you do?” I asked. (My matchmaking radar hones in again)
“Probably the same thing you do.”
(A sarcastic guy challenging my humor this early in the morning.) “You’ll never guess in a million years.” I laughed.
“I'm intrigued”...
“Are you single or are you married?”
“Actually just recently engaged!”
And then I introduced myself…
“Why do I know that name?”
Passing over my card
I then asked, so who are you engaged to?
He explained that he was just recently engaged to a woman named Lauren___.
I was shocked, as soon as he said Lauren!
“Oh my God, I know her, and she is BEYOND AWESOME!!!!!!!
“So you're “the” Janis Spindel-Americas top matchmaker!” I can now finally put a face to the stories!” He said.
It just so happens that Lauren had come to me a few years back for my help, and look at her now! Walking down the aisle with a beyond handsome INVESTOR! Tall, good looking, and educated! Leave it to me and my RADAR to track him down!
Looks like my pep talks and books gave her a “step” in the right direction...she is going down the aisle with a tall, dark, handsome and successful HOTTIE!

Matchmaker Tours 10 Cities Looking for a Wife
As the traveling matchmaker that I am, I was exhausted to say the VERY least! Even with MY energy!!!!!
Out of left field came emails and phone calls to my NY matchmaking headquarters from Toronto so at the 11th hour I was on my way to Toronto!!--- HELLOOOO just flying back from Naples and Sarasota who needed this now??? Men call I FLY!!!!!
Sitting on the plane almost ready to rest my head for a 30 second snooze, when a tall dark and HANDSOME guy with dimples (to make matters even more distracting) sits right next to me!
“Oh god- here we go again Janis”- I said to myself. My Matchmaking radar never sleeps.
Trust me, as tired as I am- I NEVER stop-as my clients tell me-I’m 25/8!
“You are adorable” I said. Not one of my most creative lines, But with the lack of sleep I had, that’s the best I could do!
“Well thank you.”
“How old are you? Twenty what?”
“Thanks, but no…I’m 33.”
“Are you from Canada or New York?”
“I’m Canadian, but I just moved back from Paris to New York.”
The conversation continued, to find out he was living in Paris for three and half years, traveled over 20 countries, works for a global finance company for the past eight years, and now has moved back to SOHO, (dual passport I might add!)
“How does your girlfriend handle all of this traveling? I asked
“I don’t have one.”
I already knew that, my radar is always ON of course.
Of which I pulled out a card, and got his!
“You KNOW that I will call you as soon as I get back to New York, so we can go out on our simulated date, and I will tell you who you are going to MARRY!!!!!! Oh my god those dimples, are you CUTE!!!!
