From the List to the Life
The Love Story of Ashley and Richard
I found Agape Match the same way a lot of people do now: through Instagram. I had been following Maria for a while, nodding along, saving posts, feeling seen. When I finally did the free intake, I realized how much more there was behind the content. Agape Match wasn’t just matchmaking. It was an ecosystem.
I started with an assessment with Louie in January 2024. We stayed on the phone for an hour and a half. That alone told me everything. No one was rushing me. No one was selling me a fantasy. Everyone genuinely cared.
By April 2024, I enrolled in the Forever Blueprint. Then came Agape Escapes to Greece in July. And in September, I met my fiancé, Richard. When I say it out loud, it almost sounds unreal. But it wasn’t magic. It was clarity.
From the beginning, the team felt deeply invested. Louie is generous with his time and attention. Maria is cool, direct, and brilliant... exactly the kind of person you want guiding you through something this personal. Chrisoula is so real and so clearly wants everyone to win. They all love love, and more importantly, they make it easy to plug into actionable behaviors instead of staying stuck in theory.
“Most people know not to go grocery shopping on an empty stomach and without a list. The Forever Blueprint gave me my list—and everything on it is what I found in Richard.”
I’ve been dating online since the very beginning of dating apps. I’ve done the therapy. The courses. The self-development. I’ve taken at least a hundred “breaks” from dating. And every time I redownloaded an app, it felt the same. Nothing really changed.
What changed everything for me were the Pillars of Compatibility. They helped me identify my personal green flags and spot them with ease, whether I was swiping or out in the wild. For the first time, I wasn’t just reacting. I was choosing.
The manifest is something I still look back on. It’s wild to read it now because it truly is everything I’ve found in Richard. Most people know not to go grocery shopping on an empty stomach and without a list. This course recentered me. It gave me my list of what actually matters for a lasting relationship.
And yes! Green Theory on the first date. Twelve Date Rule. It all clicked.
I didn’t just meet my person. I met him as someone who finally knew what she was looking for.
