Let’s clear up a rumor. Somewhere along the way, people started assuming that using a matchmaking service means handing over the keys and hoping for the best — like ordering a “chef’s choice” meal and just seeing what shows up. You get whoever the algorithm (or the matchmaker) decides, and that’s that.
That is not how we do things at Minneapolis Singles. Not even close.
You’re in the Driver’s Seat
Here is the actual setup: you get to choose how involved you want to be, every step of the way. Prefer to browse profiles on your own time and pick who catches your eye? Go right ahead. Would rather let our dating coordinators do the legwork and hand you a shortlist of people they think you’ll genuinely hit it off with? We’re happy to do that too. Most members do a little of both, and that’s exactly the point — it’s your call, not ours.
Either way, nobody is being “assigned” to you. When one of our dating experts suggests someone, it’s a suggestion, backed by the fact that our team has actually sat down with both of you, not a computer pairing keywords. When you say “yes, I’d like to meet them,” that’s a decision you made, with real information in hand — a current photo, a real bio, and the reasons our team thought you two might click.
Interested in Someone? Just Say So
See a member profile that catches your fancy? Tell our dating coordinators, and they’ll help arrange the date. Reservations, timing, the little details that turn “let’s grab coffee” into an actual plan — we handle it. You bring the good conversation; we’ll handle the logistics.
And if it turns out the two of you aren’t quite right for each other? No hard feelings, no awkward algorithm serving up the same match on repeat. You talk to a real person, tell them what you’re looking for, and keep going. This is a two-way street the entire time, from the first profile you see to the last date you go on.
As Much Help as You Want. Not One Bit More.
Some members love having our team closely involved — regular check-ins, feedback on how dates went, help fine-tuning what they’re looking for. Others prefer a lighter touch: give us your preferences, let us surface great matches, and get out of the way otherwise. Both approaches work great, because the whole system is built to bend around you, not the other way around.
Already found someone wonderful and don’t need any more help? Fantastic — swing by the office anyway. We genuinely love hearing how it’s going. Need a little extra guidance because things haven’t quite clicked yet? Also fantastic — sit down with our team and we’ll figure out what to adjust together.
Real Choice Beats “Take What You Get”
Compare that to the alternatives. A dating app hands you an endless scroll and calls that “choice,” except you’re choosing blind, from a pool that includes plenty of fake or outdated profiles. Old-school matchmaking, at its most rigid, can feel like being handed one match and told to make it work. Neither one puts you actually in control.
At Minneapolis Singles, choice isn’t a marketing word. It’s how the whole thing runs — informed, flexible, and entirely in your hands, with a local team ready to help exactly as much (or as little) as you want.
