Why Waiting for Feedback Is Emotionally Difficult

By Shay Tessler October 29, 2026 2 views

Why it's difficult to ask clients to wait 3-5 days for feedback when real people, emotions, and life decisions are involved.

A woman waits four days for an answer after a first video call. She starts to ask what is wrong with her.

The person holding that question is her matchmaker.

Natalia Martynova has run Slavic Soulmate, a private international matchmaking service, for almost nine years. Her words:

"We are not matching products or numbers or machines. We are working with real people, emotion, expectation, and life decision."

The hard part of this job is not making the match. It is holding two people's hopes while one of them takes four days to answer.
