Finding Love Through Matchmakers is Set to Surge Over the Next 10 Years

In recent years, international matchmaking has gained significant traction, reflecting a global shift towards more meaningful, committed relationships beyond the realm of dating apps. The industry, projected to reach $3.2 billion by 2024 according to Statista, has seen substantial growth, with over 2,000 professional matchmakers in the United States alone, and many more across Asia and Europe.

Heart Rocket International Matchmakers, co-founded by Stryker Joyce and Luba Seleznova, has been a leader in this space for over 16 years, helping American men find love abroad. In the confusing landscape of modern Western dating, where men often feel caught between conflicting signals and expectations, many are turning to international matchmaking for clarity and connection. Declining marriage rates in the USA highlight this trend, as men seek relationships where their efforts to provide and protect are genuinely valued.

“Many Western men face an identity crisis in relationships,” says Joyce. “Their desire to support a partner, akin to the relationships of previous generations, is often misunderstood today. With dating apps skewed heavily towards men, many experience frustration and imbalance.”

Seleznova adds, “Men seek relationships that align with their natural instincts to provide and protect. In many cultures, these roles are still cherished, making international matchmaking a natural choice.”

Heart Rocket emphasizes coaching, offering courses to help clients navigate cross-cultural relationships effectively. These resources provide essential guidance for building strong, enduring bonds.
