Matchmaker

At some point you realised that you had a talent for matchmaking. Maybe you were asked by a friend to help them find their soulmate or improve their chances in love or maybe you just had that feeling that two people you knew would be perfect for each other, but regardless, you are good at finding kindred spirits. You are used to entering a tavern and instantly recognising love compatible people. Have you managed to offer yourself the same level of happiness you have brought to so many others?
