Master Matchmaker discloses how to diffuse the “I love you” bomb.

DATELINE: NORWELL, MA…

In the new romantic comedy (500) Days of Summer, Joseph Gordon Levitt’s character finds himself in a place you want to be in a relationship. You know, when that new person you’ve been seeing touches your heart in a way where those three words—I love you—suddenly seep into your consciousness. The only question is, “does he or she feel the same way?” And do you risk losing what you’ve got by invoking those three small words into your relationship?

Paul A. Falzone, CEO of The Right One and Together Dating–one of the world’s largest brick-and-mortar dating services with more than 60 offices nationwide—has paired thousands of clients during more than 35 years in business. He also has a few thoughts on when you should and should not say “I love you.”

“Well, on your way to the restaurant on your first date might be too soon and the night you celebrate your one-year anniversary is probably a bit late,” said Falzone. “Seriously, the key really is not when you say it, but that you’re really sure you feel it. Because let’s face it, saying those three words will change your current relationship one way or the other. So it’s important to have your thoughts together rather than just blurting it out.”

Falzone recommends:

• Writing out a list of why you love the person you’re seeing. Include the reasons why, not just that you do.
• Ask yourself honestly if this is a relationship you want to take to that next level. Allow yourself to daydream a little bit about where you think it could go.
• Write your boy/girlfriend a love letter stating your feeling for them. Include the three words in their just to see how it feels. You don’t have to send it.
• Practice saying it in the mirror. It may sound silly, but when the time comes you’ll want to look your beloved in the eye and deliver your ‘I love you’ with confidence.
• Hope for the best, but plan for the worst: no response or ‘I don’t love you’. Sure, you want to think positive, but it is possible that the other person may not feel the same. Or that they might not be in the same place right now.

Adds Falzone, “The most important thing is you want the moment you tell somebody you love them to be special. So, plan a special dinner, take them to the site of where you met, buy a bottle of champagne, you name it. If he or she reciprocates, you’ll want to celebrate. “

And what if he or she doesn’t reciprocate?
“Obviously, that’s not the preferred answer, but by making an effort to make the moment special, you do earn that person’s respect if not their love,” said Falzone. “And you can most definitely hold your head high for having the courage to listen to your heart and make your feelings known. That’s really the only way you will find your true love.”

Divorced and getting back in the dating game…How and when to play.

DATELINE: NORWELL, MA…

Going through a divorce is not a life experience you wanted, but it happens. Now, after licking your wounds, you’re ready to get out there. For many, it’s not that easy. It could have been years, even decades since you last actively sought a date. So, where do you start?

Paul A. Falzone, CEO of The Right One and Together Dating–one of the world’s largest brick-and-mortar dating services with more than 60 offices nationwide—has paired hundreds of newly divorced clients during his quarter of a century in business. He’s also been divorced himself and happily remarried now for years.

“When you’re newly divorced, it seems everybody either has a friend they want to set you up with or words of advice or a little pep talk to get you back out there. The truth is, only you can know when you’re ready to start dating. That’s why it’s really important to take some time, think and get a sense of where you are emotionally first before you start dating—particularly if it’s been a very long time since you’ve dated,” said Falzone.

For starters, Falzone recommends:

*Going slow – perhaps it’s a cliché, but a divorce is a life-altering event and you do need some time to heal.
*Avoid the bar scene – Getting out with friends and co-workers as a way to re-enter the social scene but don’t do it as a way to meet potential dates.
*Get fit – Being ready to date again means feeling good about yourself. Starting an exercise program or going to a gym can begin that process of feeling good about you again.
*Be wary of dating at work – it’s natural for you to be close to people you work with, particularly if they’ve helped you through a tough time. Just be careful before entering into a relationship or even dating somebody at the office.
*Networking – While being set up might not be your idea of getting back into the dating game, if you’re looking it couldn’t hurt to let people in your social or professional network know that you are interested in meeting new people.
*The ex – It’s safe to say that dwelling on the ex will not do much good in dating new people. Just remember that you’re dating again for you, not to get back at him/her or to find somebody before he or she does.
*Take your time before introducing your dates to friends and, especially family – if you think your divorce is an adjustment for you, it’s also one for family, friends and your children. Wait before introducing your date to them, especially the children.
*No overnight guests – If you have children, wait a significant amount of time before having any overnight guests—at least until your date is something more serious and has had a chance to form some kind of a relationship with your kids.

“Getting back into the dating game doesn’t have to be scary. It can actually be an exciting time of your new life but you want to do it for the right reasons and be able to enjoy it,” said Falzone. “Take it slow, be open and upbeat, and you can find love again.”

“It’s great to be excited about somebody after a first date. What’s even better is to be even more excited after two. If’ your goal is for something lasting, there’s nothing wrong with taking it slow and making sure it really is, pun intended, the right one for you,” said Falzone.

~44% (~110 million) of the population is single. With numbers like that, dating again should be easy, but successful dating requires some preparation. Dating Coach, Kira Sabin, says discovering your single self means being emotionally and mentally ready to date. While pressure from family and friends might make you feel like you should be dating, it’s important to want that for yourself. Another aspect of being newly single, says Paul Falzone, CEO and founder of The Right One, is “feeling emotionally and physically positive about yourself. With dozens of online dating sites, there’s no shortage of profiles. However, both experts feel that off-line dating has more to offer, with Sabin noting, “60% of people meet through friends.” FULL ARTICLE @ BUSINESS WATCH (page 21)

Dinner and a movie. It makes for a great date night any day of the year, but can be even more special on Valentine’s Day. Unfortunately, with times being tough for many, the luxury of a night out might not be an option this year. According to love expert Paul A. Falzone, CEO of The Right One and Together Dating–one of the world’s largest brick-and-mortar dating services with more than 60 offices nationwide—a candlelit dinner at home followed by a romantic movie can be just the ticket for couples feeling the sting of the recession.

“Valentine’s Day is not about who spends the most, but spending time with your loved one. And with the selection of the right movie, that quiet night at home can be even more special,” said Falzone.

With the advent of online movie rental services, you can pretty much have your pick of Hollywood’s all-time romantic movies. On Falzone’s must-see, Valentine’s Day list are:

? An Affair to Remember (1957), starring Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr
? Love Actually (2003), starring Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson
? Moonstruck (1987), starring Cher and Nicolas Cage
? Officer and a Gentlemen (1982), starring Richard Gere and Debra Winger
? Sleepless in Seattle (1993) starring Tom Hanks, Meg Ryan
? Casablanca (1942), starring Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman
? Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961), starring Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard
? It Happened One Night (1934), starring Clark Gable, Claudette Colbert
? Love Story (1970), starring Ryan O’Neal and Ali MacGraw
? Romeo and Juliet (1968), starring Leonard Whiting and Olivia Hussey

“These movies can make for a great matinee and set the tone for the day, or a nice way to relax and enjoy the end of your romantic evening,” says Falzone. “Regardless of what you watch, what really matters is who you’re watching it with.”
