Can feelings of love can emerge solely through conversation?
The experiment in all three countries shows that feelings of love can indeed emerge solely through conversation, independent of physical appearance. However, once the couples get to know each other in person, it becomes clear that physical attraction plays a critical role in determining whether the relationship will succeed. Without physical attraction, the relationship remains at a friendship level.
For some participants, the first glance is enough to decide whether they wish to continue with the experiment or not. Others choose to give love the time to grow, even if the physical connection isn’t immediate. In some cases, that attraction does eventually develop over time.
The power of Relational Intelligence
The chance of success also strongly depends on the relational intelligence of the participants – a characteristic explored in detail in the book “Relationele Intelligentie” by Annemieke Dubois, colleague and founder of matchmaking agency Jade & Jules. It’s about opening your heart, accepting that a perfect relationship doesn’t exist, focusing on the positives in your partner, and giving your relationship some oxygen from time to time.
Why Jade & Jules chooses to share photographs
At Jade & Jules, we choose for a complete approach in matchmaking. While many matchmaking agencies choose not to share photos, we believe this is a crucial part of the process. Why? Because love is not just friendship. The visual aspect and attraction play a significant role in building a lasting relationship. We understand that trust and privacy are essential. For this reason, we uphold strict confidentiality and ethics in our work. Photos are only shared in a secure and discreet environment, always and only with mutual consent. This ensures the integrity of our process as well as respect for our clients.
We choose transparency and honesty because we believe in the complete picture, where both inner and outer qualities come together.
