Michael & Anastasia
Meet Our Team


"I never thought a trip to the farmers' market would lead to meeting the love of my life, but thanks to Midnight Yes, that's exactly what happened.
​
When Anna matched me with Anastasia, she suggested we meet at the Riverview Farmers' Market in Jersey City. I was intrigued but uncertain—who starts a first date at a market? Yet, as soon as I saw Anastasia, all doubts vanished. She stood out in the crowd with her sunflower-yellow dress and radiant smile.
​
We strolled through the stalls, sampling fresh produce and local delicacies. Anastasia's enthusiasm for organic food was contagious. She told me about her childhood in Ukraine, where her family grew their own vegetables, and how she missed that connection to the earth. We bought ingredients for a picnic, which we enjoyed in Riverview-Fisk Park, overlooking the Manhattan skyline.
​
That afternoon, Anastasia showed me how to make traditional Ukrainian borscht with the beets and cabbage we bought. We laughed over our makeshift kitchen setup in my tiny apartment, and by the time the soup was simmering, I knew I wanted more days like this.
​
Our next adventure was a biking tour along the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway. Anastasia had a vintage bicycle, complete with a wicker basket, and she looked like she had stepped out of a movie. We rode from Liberty State Park to Hoboken, stopping to take pictures and enjoy the waterfront views. Anastasia even packed a thermos of tea and homemade pastries for us to share.
​
Anna's thoughtful matchmaking didn’t stop at shared interests. She understood that we both had a strong sense of community. Anastasia and I volunteered together at the Jersey City Free Public Library, organizing book drives and community events. Working side by side, we saw how well we complemented each other. My logistical skills paired perfectly with her creativity and warmth.
​
One of my favorite memories is from our visit to the Liberty Science Center. Anastasia was like a kid in a candy store, dragging me from exhibit to exhibit. We spent hours exploring, learning, and laughing. The planetarium show was particularly memorable; as we sat under the simulated night sky, I felt a deep connection with her, as if the stars had aligned just for us.
​
Thanks to Midnight Yes, I found a partner who not only shares my interests but also my values and sense of adventure. Anastasia and I are now planning our future together, filled with more farmers' markets, bike rides, and community projects. If you're looking for a genuine connection and unique experiences, Anna's matchmaking service is the way to go."
