On Being a Matchmaker
The first thing I do when I wake up is to make a mental list of all things I have to do that day. I’m very organized! Then I get up and have my bath. Often my best matchmaking(媒人) ideas come while I’m in the bath. Sometimes I have a really good idea about who might be good with whom.
Before I did matchmaking , I was a social worker, but I knew I wanted to do something without bosses telling me what to do and that I am good at dealing with people. Also I had seen too many broken marriages and too many people go downhill because they were so lonely. So I gave up my job, did a bit of research and started the matchmaking business in 1970.
Over the last few years we’ve been doing introductions throughout Europe as well as here in Britain. Europeans want to meet British people. For every 100 people who come to us, about 65 will settle down. We keep going until clients (委托人) find someone that they get on very well with. We’re great tiers. Of course there are impossible people, those who will never settle...
Sometimes I end up giving advice to clients. A few months ago, we had a highly paid scientist with a very nice face, but every woman refused to meet him a second time. It soon became clear that he did not like changing his shirts. So I had to be very honest and frank and told him, "But a woman can’t start to love you if your shirt smells. " The job is most satisfying when I get a call from a couple telling me they have fallen in love.
What does the author mean by saying "I’m very organized"?
