My Story

I met and married my husband Josh in less than a year. We were engaged after five months of dating and were married four months after that.

Sounds crazy, right? Yeah, I would have thought so too except that I intentionally set out to find the man that I wanted to marry within a year.

But before I get into how I did that, a little backstory:

I was never the type of girl who sat around dreaming about her wedding day, envisioning the gown, the ring, the venue, the flowers.

I was more of a guys’ girl, a tomboy. As a kid, I hung out with my older brother and his friends, and that continued as I got older.

For the 15 years I lived in Manhattan, I had a great group of friends but my long term partner in crime was a good-looking finance guy who knew every trick in the book for getting a woman to sleep with him. I saw him date countless women and break all their hearts.

Throughout my 20s, I was happily single and dating tons of men in Manhattan. But all the while, I had the nagging thought in the back of my mind that I had to meet someone by the time I was 30. My brother and his friends frequently talked about how they wouldn’t date a woman over 30, and they brainwashed me into believing that after my 30th birthday, my chances of finding love would be over.

Luckily, they were wrong.

When I hit 30, I actually started having serious relationships. Problem was, I consistently settled for the wrong guys.

See, I thought it was good (great even) to get 80 percent of what I wanted in a man. So what if he wasn’t good looking? He was super smart. Who cares if he had no money and made me pay for everything? He was loving and loyal.

I thought being in a long-term relationship was about making trade-offs. I didn’t believe I could have it all.

After a few years of being in relationships (mostly with guys I didn’t even like!), I found myself single at 34 and on several dating apps and websites.

On the eve of my 35th birthday, I woke up and realized: holy crap, I’m going to have to put 35 on my online dating profile. That was nightmarish for me. Not only was turning 35 a frightening milestone, but it also made me worry that another five years would go by and I’d find myself 40 and alone.

In that moment, I vowed to myself that I would be married within a year but (and this is a BIG but) I wouldn’t settle on anyone who wasn’t 100 percent what I wanted.

After all those years of dating (I had probably had like 75 broken hearts and broke many myself), I finally realized that I was worth it — I deserved to have everything I wanted, and a man wasn’t worthy of my time unless he had all the qualities I was looking for. I would rather be alone than settle.

I knew I had a lot of work to do if I was going to accomplish my goal, but the thought of being alone for another five years spurred me into action.

I started dating like a well-oiled machine and created a system for dating men that ultimately became my signature “Manfunnel” — the number one tool I teach women to help them find and marry the man they’ve always wanted.
