After seeing some threads it's clear that there are chapos here who need a mentor in the romantic arts (tm). Pitch me your best Q's and I'll spit my best A's.

I've been a professional dating coach and matchmaker for the last 6 years.

edit: Wrapped up for now. Thanks everyone and good luck out there, you can do it!

    How’s the pay?

    It took a while to build up, but the pay is now great. I charge on a sliding scale, so the clients I have who have a higher income pay more. At this point have built things up to where I'm making ~80k / year before taxes, health insurance, etc. I live in an area with a fairly high cost of living. I'm self-employed so own the full value of my labor and I do not employee anyone.

    Do you think there’d be room in the space for an open source worker-owned online dating platform where the matchmaking is done by humans?

    Interesting! I love worker-owned tech. Haven't looked into the numbers of what that would be like, but the biggest thing with dating apps is just making sure you have a ton of people on them. They really depend on marketing / the network effect.
