We have a dedicated team in NYC to help you meet and keep the person you can spend forever with. It allows us to give everyone our undivided attention.

April Davis, the founder and CEO of LUMA, believes in quality over quantity. Rather than taking on hundreds of clients at a time, we limit our clientele to a maximum of 20. Although we have a pool of over 1,000,000 singles, each one has been meticulously picked based on their profession and life goals. LUMA understands the appeal of dating apps and their algorithms. However, we believe that finding a lifelong partner requires the personalization brought by the human element. This is why we have optimized our matchmaking services in NYC to make the search more human. Avoid the stress of dating in NYC by being paired with a suitable match. LUMA takes the time to know you and your potential match, so that your needs and preferences are met.

Apparently, showing someone you're interested is embarrassing now. Since when? 😂

We've reached a point in dating where people will deliberately wait hours to respond to a text because answering too quickly might make them look desperate.

Or pretend they're too busy to make plans because being available somehow means they're less desirable.

It's exhausting. And honestly, not particularly attractive.

There's a big difference between being confident and acting like you couldn't care less.

Confidence is being comfortable enough to say you enjoyed someone's company.

It's suggesting another date without worrying about who asked last.

It's letting someone know you're excited to see them without treating it like you've just handed over all your power.

Of course, effort should go both ways.

If you're always the one reaching out, making plans, and keeping things moving, that's worth paying attention to.

But when two people genuinely like each other, why make something so simple unnecessarily complicated?

You don't get extra points for pretending you forgot to text back.

What's more attractive to you: someone who plays it cool or someone who's upfront about their interest? 👀

When Everyone Who Loves You Sees The Same Thing

You're explaining away the weird comment. The canceled plans. The way you feel smaller after seeing them.

You keep defending someone who keeps disappointing you. And your friends are watching the same pattern repeat, thinking: this doesn't look good for you.

Your friends shouldn't control your love life. That's true. But you need to notice when everyone who loves you is having the same reaction.

→ One explained-away moment is a coincidence. A pattern is information.

→ Constant defending is a sign you already know something is off.

→ Feeling smaller around someone is data, not a personality flaw.

→ When multiple people who care about you see the same thing, take it seriously.

Most people don't realize they've been rationalizing until someone else says it out loud. The explanations feel reasonable one at a time. Stacked together, they tell a different story.

You don't have to end anything today. You just have to stop pretending the pattern isn't there.

Listen to the people who love you. Then be honest about what you're excusing.

That's how you protect your own worth.

Ever notice someone acting a little differently around you, almost like they're trying NOT to let you know they have a crush? 👀

Sometimes the people who like you are the ones working the hardest to keep it a secret.

Here are 6 signs they may REALLY like you but are trying NOT to make it obvious:

➡️ They find excuses to be around you.

They somehow end up in the same places you do, join conversations you're part of, or find reasons to talk to you.

➡️ They remember little details you didn't expect them to notice.

You casually mention your favorite coffee order, an upcoming event, or something you're excited about. Weeks later, they bring it up.

➡️ They look at you when they think you're not paying attention.

You catch them glancing in your direction, only for them to quickly look away or pretend they were focused on something else.

➡️ They tease you or joke with you more than other people.

They find playful ways to talk to you, create inside jokes, or get a reaction out of you.

➡️ They seem unusually interested in your dating life.

They casually ask whether you're seeing anyone, bring up relationships, or pay close attention when you mention a date.

➡️ They show interest, then suddenly play it cool.

One moment they're engaged, attentive, and clearly enjoying your company. The next, they seem to pull back or act unusually casual.

Of course, none of these behaviors automatically means someone is romantically attracted to you.

But when someone seems to make a special effort to connect with you, there may be more behind their behavior.

And if you like them back?

Give them a little encouragement.

Sometimes all someone needs is a little reassurance that their interest might be mutual. ❤️

Have you ever found out someone secretly had a crush on you? 👀

Forget ghosts, witches, and monsters. Dating has enough horrors of its own. 👻😂

As a matchmaker, I've heard enough dating horror stories to fill an entire haunted house.

Catfish dating profiles. People who disappear after a great first date. Talking stages that last longer than actual relationships. First dates that turn into therapy sessions about your date's ex.

And don't even get me started on trying to get a straight answer about commitment. 💀

The scariest part? Every single room is inspired by something people actually experience while dating.

So this Halloween, I'm inviting you into the dating haunted house. Enter at your own risk. 🎃

Which room would be YOUR worst nightmare? Or better yet, what's a dating horror story you'd add to the house?

Drop it in the comments. I might need to build another wing. 😂

Happy Halloween! 🧡

Whatever happened to a little yearning? ❤️

The anticipation. The flirting. The butterflies before a date. Actually getting to know someone before rushing into everything else.

There's something romantic about wanting someone and letting that connection build naturally.

Not everything needs to happen immediately.

Sometimes the slow burn is the best part.

Although apparently, the same philosophy applies to cookies. 🍪😂

Are we bringing yearning back, or is everyone too impatient?

She's brilliant, successful, and living a life she loves. Now she's ready to share it with someone special. ❤️

We're searching for an exceptional man for one of our private matchmaking clients, a sophisticated, accomplished mid-40s woman living in San Francisco.

A successful medical professional with a sharp mind, a wonderful sense of humor, and a warm, affectionate personality, she's just as comfortable enjoying an elegant dinner as she is laughing with friends.

She loves weekends in Napa, hiking, running, exploring new places, and escaping to beautiful beaches. She's adventurous, thoughtful, and knows how to enjoy the finer things in life.

Now she's looking for a genuine partnership with someone who shares her enthusiasm for life.

Who we're hoping to meet:

✨ Single, successful men in or near the San Francisco Bay Area

✨ Intelligent, confident, and financially established

✨ Kind, affectionate, and emotionally mature

✨ Career-driven, with strong values and a genuine desire for a committed relationship

✨ Active, health-conscious, and excited to share new experiences

We're especially interested in meeting accomplished men in technology, finance, business, or similar professional fields.

Above all, she's looking for someone who appreciates her independence, shares her values, and is ready to build something meaningful together.

Think you could be her match? Or know an incredible man who might be?

💌 DM us FRANCISCO and we'll send you a link to complete your complimentary LUMA membership profile so our matchmaking team can consider you for an introduction!

Photos are representative images, not photographs of our client. Her identity is kept private.

Ever had a crush on someone you thought was completely out of your league? 👀

Well, someone might feel that way about YOU.

Here are 6 signs they may LIKE you but think you're OUT of their LEAGUE:

➡️ They seem confident with everyone except you.

They're relaxed and outgoing around other people, but suddenly become quiet, nervous, or unusually careful with their words when you're around.

➡️ They compliment you, then downplay themselves.

“You always look so put together. I could never pull that off.” They admire something about you while making a little joke at their own expense.

➡️ They act surprised when you show interest.

You flirt back or suggest getting together, and they seem genuinely caught off guard. Almost like they never considered you might feel the same way.

➡️ They assume you have plenty of options.

“You probably have people asking you out all the time.” They make little comments suggesting they think you're constantly getting attention.

➡️ They hesitate to make the first move.

They find reasons to talk to you and seem happy when you're around, but stop short of asking you out. They may be worried about rejection before they've even tried.

➡️ They become more confident when you encourage them.

You return a compliment, initiate a conversation, or suggest a date. Suddenly, they're more relaxed and willing to show their interest.

Of course, being nervous or insecure around someone doesn't automatically mean they're attracted to them.

But when someone consistently seeks you out, seems surprised by your attention, and becomes more comfortable when you show interest, attraction could be part of the reason.

And if you like them back? Give them a little encouragement.

They might be sitting there thinking they have absolutely no chance with you. 😂

Your Friends Might See What You're Ignoring

People who care about you may not always say it perfectly. But they usually can tell when you're not happy. When you're settling. When you're making excuses for someone who would never make those excuses for you.

So if your group chat hates the person you're dating, don't brush it off automatically.

Ask yourself: what are they seeing that I keep trying not to see?

→ Friends notice patterns you've gotten used to.

→ Settling often looks like comfort from the outside.

→ Excuses you make for someone else reveal what you're willing to accept.

→ Their concern isn't always about the person. Sometimes it's about how you look when you're around them.

Most people defend their relationships to the people who love them. That's understandable. But defensiveness shuts down the one perspective that might help you see clearly.

You don't have to take every opinion as a verdict. But you should take it as information.

Luma believes in relationships that hold up under honest outside perspective. Clarity comes from community, not just chemistry.

Listen to the people who know you best. Then look again at what you're excusing.

A World Cup match for a first date?! Now THAT'S making an impression. 😂⚽

Earlier this year, I introduced two singles, and the gentleman already had tickets to a World Cup match.

So that's where they went for their very first date!

And apparently, we might need to find someone for the news anchor next. 😂

Would you say YES to a first date at a major sporting event, or would you rather start with something a little more low-key?

10/26/2026

If I wanted to fall in LOVE before 2027, here's exactly what I'd do. ❤️

I've been a professional matchmaker for over 20 years, so I have a pretty good idea of where I'd start.

Here's what I'd do with the rest of 2026:

➡️ I'd tell people I'm single and looking.

Friends, coworkers, neighbors, even the person I always see at my favorite restaurant. People can't introduce you to someone if they don't know you're interested!

➡️ I'd stop texting for weeks without meeting.

If we hit it off, I'd suggest a date. Great chemistry over text doesn't always translate to real life, and I'd rather find that out sooner.

➡️ I'd give people outside my usual type a chance.

I'd still prioritize shared values and compatible lifestyles. But height, job titles, and having identical hobbies? I wouldn't let those eliminate someone great.

➡️ I'd actually make time for dating.

If every weekend is booked through New Year's, when exactly am I supposed to meet someone? A relationship needs room to develop.

And here's the part that might surprise you…

➡️I wouldn't spend the rest of 2026 trying to fall in love.

I'd spend it meeting people.

Going on dates. Having real conversations. Saying yes to introductions I might normally turn down.

Because falling in love isn't something you can schedule for December 31.

But putting yourself in a better position to meet someone?

That part is up to you. ❤️
