The first matchmaking agency in the United States to exclusively offer matchmaking, coaching, dating services and more to single men and women with the Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV)

San Francisco, CA -- (SBWire) -- 06/16/2014 --The Pool Matchmaking Agency, LLC announced today the launch of their new matchmaking and dating service created exclusively for singles with the Herpes Simplex Virus 1 & 2 (HSV) looking for dating, love and marriage. The revolutionary matchmaking company is the first of its kind in the United States, offering a premium service long denied to the HSV community.

The Pool is not an online dating website, but an exclusive, boutique agency based in the San Francisco Bay Area that offers personalized, face-to-face matchmaking services and more to its client and member base. The Pool also throws regular private events named “Pool Parties,” where single men and women with HSV can mix, mingle and be matched with other professional, eligible singles who share their diagnosis—helping to identify in person chemistry and create that special spark.

The Pool’s Founder and CEO, Kristine Johnson states — “Stress, embarrassment and risk of rejection lead many singles with HSV to give up on finding love. Herpes and other forms of STD dating websites don’t work because they jeopardize people’s privacy and have few active members. The herpes community is in great need of a more premium and private service to find dates and search for love. We’re proud to offer such a service to the HSV community.”

Many HSV positive individuals face the embarrassment, stigma or rejection associated with revealing their HSV status to the people they’re dating during the awkward “talk.” Recent CDC studies show 1 in 6 men and 1-4 women has HSV, many desiring a greater level of privacy, understanding and options when dating. The Pool has successfully developed premium services, solutions and products to effectively cater to the dating and matchmaking needs to this long underserved community.

The Pool’s premium services include:

- Dedicated, personalized one-on-one matchmaking
- Dating, relationship and personal development coaching
-Image and style consulting and makeovers to help make a great first impression
- Full-service date concierge services, which help take the “work” out of dating for clients by planning every important detail

"The Pool removes the uncomfortable ‘talk’, protects and values members’ privacy and gets men and women with herpes off the internet, out on fun dates and into healthy, long lasting, loving relationships. We’re absolutely thrilled about our ground-breaking services and being a revolutionary force in the matchmaking and dating industry." Johnson adds.

Based in San Francisco, with plans to expand their services soon throughout California, The Pool Matchmaking Agency caters exclusively to HSV positive singles ages 21 and over.
