MONEY- be prepared to fork it over for nothing- save time and just burn it! As a successful 55-year-old woman I was tired of being alone or dating men with serious financial problems. I thought by going to an upscale service I'd get better options and personalized attention with more appropriate dates. I'm only writing this to save another middle-aged woman thousands of dollars for nothing and a year of being made to feel very badly your quest to ever find a partner, and to end up feeling bad as it's nicely made clear your third rate goods. First, I was told there were many, many options only to find out once I've paid the money and did the photos, 2 weeks later actually none of those men available, suddenly all taken. During the year, I had a total of 5 dates- all of them bad, a couple of them truly awful. The best one the man was 8 years older and looked 9 months pregnant (!) - the rest ranged from totally off the rails with a serious criminal background (which Sophia knew about but did not disclose), to a man 22 years older, not fit to the point of walking, unstable, with a cane ; I had asked for someone with fit health within 5-10 years of my age... The next date was 17 years older and only wanted a petite woman as he was short and rather feminine - I'm 5'7, 5'10 in heels- he let me know I was not his type at all within in minutes- he told me Sophia knew this and was irritated she'd even matched us up. I was supposed to take what ever a "desperate" old woman was offered, no matter how bad the offering was- and it was clear I should have been grateful. I, according to her, was just too picky for what I had to offer. Sophia doesn't really like having middle aged women as clients, but you don't find this out until you pay the money- Sophia is very persuasive but it's clear she takes on clients she should not- I was someone she should have turned down- read more

Aka millionaire matchmaker. Well, for any considering this, I figured a word of caution. Sophia is not qualified to even attempt about half the things she does, whether spiritual, hypnotic, or psychotherapy. It's just not a good idea to let someone untrained practice on live subjects. More details: she sums you up based primarily on your looks and does not want to hear anything about who you are or your history. She will have you read literally dozens of self help books. She does not take notes and will contradict things she told you to do at the last session. More importantly, it's pretty clear that she is unaware of her own actions/ reactions to people: for example, if you're having a bad day, she may attempt to build you up, a little. But if you're feeling great, confident, sexy, and energetic: she unconsciously tears you down and leaves you feeling crummy. Why? Hard to say, but I bet it had something to do with a NEED she has to be important. This is exactly why she should not be attempting psychotherapy. The deal is 3000$ for 20 hours of sessions, which if you complete you can be lucky enough to enter into her database if exclusive clients. Now at some point I quit, probably after ten hours of this nonsense (dragged out through most of a year). But I can tell you in a nutshell how to get exactly what I got for substantially cheaper. 1) lose weight 2) wear nice clothes or get a personal stylist 3) get your hair cut at gene Juarez 4) get your makeup done at Flawless Beauty Bars 5) get professional photos taken 6) get a match.com account (and half a dozen others) 7) write a profile that's short and light and use only the professional photos. As for the rest - get a self help book. read more
