“ I have had a wonderful experience with iJL, I was initially very apprehensive at first, but after my friend joined and met the person she eventually married I decided to give this method of meeting people a try. I am so glad that I did ! I had the pleasure of working with Karin, who really took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for in a potential match, she was always willing to make adjustments when needed and really listened to me. She was also very patient and accommodating with my ever-changing schedule needs. She also helped me to prepare form my dates and encouraged me to feel empowered during the process. I would highly recommend this service, and working with Karin has been a pleasure . . . ”

“ Its just lunch finding me matches has been good experience. Being able to get in front of the matches and meet is better then online dating.The team is very professional and works hard to find the right matches for you. ”

“ I've been using IJL for a little while now. As a professional who has a hectic schedule, this is definitely a good way to meet people in a way that takes a lot of the guesswork out of things. Going on one date through them where they handle everything on the back end and you just have to be yourself is definitely more valuable than just doing the online dating and feeling like you're just talking into the void. I've been working with Karin and she has been great, very understanding of what I'm looking for, and even when it's a match that doesn't necessarily work out, we know what to look for in the future. Everything's handled very professionally and having that extra help in your corner also boosts the always-important confidence when you are meeting up with someone! ”

“ As someone who doesn't get out much this was the perfect idea to get me into the dating world. Not only do I not have to deal with the stress of finding someone who wants to go on a date with me, but this company picks the first date location roughly half way between each person. They set each person up for success by getting to know you, what you are looking for in a significant other, and do's and don't's for a first date. I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for a low stress high reward first date with someone similar to you ”

“ A few months ago I decided to give IJL a chance after years of trying the dating apps with no success and many headaches. The Cleveland, Ohio Team was very understanding and patient with all my questions. Setting my expectations with the reality I would be meeting more dates that are suitable to me, my life style and career I was very pleased with the outcome. Even with IJL there is no exact science to dating, there will still be matches that may not make sense but that is also part of human nature. Trusting Kendyl and Karin to figure out who may work has made a difference in my life. I am fortunate to have put my membership on hold last month as I am dating an incredible woman! Thank you IJL Cleveland, you rock! ”

“ I joined IJL Cleveland when I became serious about trying to find a partner but not having luck on my own. I was skeptical about the process at first, but it forced me out of my comfort zone and I met some wonderful people. I am one year into a relationship with my boyfriend that I met through IJL and could not be happier. ”

“ For someone who is very introverted and very hesitant on jumping into the dating scene this business is very well put together and took the anxiety I had with trying to find someone and set up a first date was taken away immediately. The team sets up the first date and gives great pointers to connect with your date plus they give characteristics of that person to help connect with them further. I would definitely recommend trying this business out as their team is very sweet, and kind plus they listen to you. ”

“ I was on my way home from another bad Hinge date when I heard an ad for this on the radio and instantly went home to sign up. The next day, Kendyl called me and we talked for hours about me, what I'm looking for, what's worked, what hasn't etc. I went on a few dates before I met my guy and my life is forever changed. My advice would be to be patient and know it's a process and investment. My first few dates weren't fantastic, but they listen to your feedback and talk through things with you. Katie, Sabrina and Rebecca were also all fantastic. I am so grateful I did this. It was the best decision I've ever made. ”
