Matchmaker Jackie Dorman launches a new guide to lasting love, plus a live 5-week book club starting May 26, 2026.
AUSTIN, TX, UNITED STATES, May 25, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Professional matchmaker and relationship strategist Jackie Dorman celebrates the official release of her highly anticipated new book, Modern Dating Sucks: A Matchmaker’s Guide to Finding Love in a Swipe-Left World. Available now, the book serves as a bold cultural mindset shift for marriage-minded adults who are exhausted by the ambiguity of rising situational commitment and digital burnout.
Dorman, a former TV executive who has sparked more than 1,600 engagements and marriages since 2020, argues that dating feels unnatural because it has been significantly reshaped by the isolation of digital matching. Rather than deleting dating apps, Dorman reframes them as tools that require strategy and relational clarity. “This isn’t about escaping the apps; it’s about thinking like a matchmaker, identifying commitment-minded people quickly, and choosing realistically instead of just browsing endlessly,” says Dorman.
Highlighting the launch, Dorman will host a weekly Modern Dating Sucks Book Club beginning May 26. The interactive five-week series will meet weekly to guide readers through the book’s core frameworks, including:
• Goal-Based Discernment: How to identify marriage-minded partners quickly to avoid burnout.
• The “Spirit Mate” Plane: Replacing fickle chemistry with partnerships built on shared life purpose.
• Historical Context: Understanding how industrialization and gender mythology reshaped modern romance.
• HeartWork Integration: Utilizing Dorman’s proprietary protocol to heal trauma-driven patterns before dating.
“I wrote this book because I know love is worth it,” said Dorman. “But we have to go beyond surviving the system and start writing our love stories based on ‘ancient’ ways that actually work.”
Modern Dating Sucks is a direct response to a dating landscape defined by swipe fatigue, offering a path back to intentionality and family legacy. Dorman’s insights on modern dating and relationships have been featured across major media outlets, including Access Daily, ABC, NBC, Fox News Digital, People, and iHeartRadio.
