Doing Dating Better with the "Profile Helper"
Are you feeling burnt out by the "dopamine slot machine" of modern dating apps? In this episode of the Cupid’s Coach podcast, veteran matchmaker Julie Furman sits down with the "OG" of online dating, Eric Resnick of Profile Helper. With over 40 years of combined experience, they share a candid look at how to navigate the digital dating world without losing your mind—or your heart—to the wrong people.
Julie and Eric dive into the shift from traditional sites to social discovery apps, the truth about "unnatural matches," and why your profile should never feel like a sales pitch. Whether you're recently divorced, widowed, or just frustrated with swiping, this episode provides the "training wheels" you need to transition from "me" to "we".
Key Takeaways:
* Dating App Evolution: Understanding the "sweet spot" between traditional apps and casual swiping.
* The "First Week" Rule: Why you should aim to meet in person or via video within 3 to 7 days to avoid "dying on the vine".
* Age & Height Reality: Moving past rigid checkboxes to focus on shared values and lifestyle alignment.
* Privacy & Safety: How to protect yourself from romance scams and when to use tools like Google Voice.
* Authentic Photos: Why candid "friend-captured" shots often beat stiff professional portraits.
