Frequently Asked Question

Why donít you sell email addresses by posting photos of Argentinean women like other websites? First: If we are going to do what the vast majority of foreign dating and email order brides does, most of men will go straight to the women photos section and start dreaming. Then most of them will write to a few quantity of beautiful women.The practice of selling individual addresses cause over saturation of women and actually lowers your chances of success. You like her, of courseÖYou and ten million other guys!

Donít be swayed by a photo that some foreign dating sites may use as bait. Even women may post fake photo. It's difficult if not impossible to know in advance if the addresses you are buying are old, new, real or fancy. The women profiles have been collected on line, she has not shown a document, which could confirm her profile data. No checking is done.
You have no idea if the photo is of the advertiser or whether they are telling the truth about themselves or not. If a woman is real, it is no guarantee she is not married or engaged, and her photo can be outdated. Also you are not even sure their girl exists in reality.
Keep in mind that a professional photographer is able to turn an ordinary woman into a masterpiece, making them more attractive than they really are.
Most do not look into the background or the intentions of the women. The truth is that many women are looking for relocation, but not for a soul mate.

So we are not interested in compromising our goal and reputation for easy money.

Second: We intentionally restrict our ratio of foreign male membership to female, thus allowing the men a greater opportunity to receive seriously mutual acceptances back from qualified women. Other services sell thousands of individual addresses - normally (only) to the most beautiful women (Are they real or fake? - Do you know what you are getting?), making your possibility of receiving a replay greatly diminished or impossible. Every day we turn away requests (and money) for sales of email addresses. As we have said, we are not interested in compromising our goal for money.

Third: VivaAmar knows how to find the right candidates for you and we know how to work with you to do so. We have made it our goal to help foreign gentlemen and Argentinean women connect by using a service that takes most of the guesswork, anxiety and fear out of the matchmaking process. A service that matches, as closely as possible, quality men with quality women for a lifetime of happiness and devotion. The overall cost of our service reflect less total cost than many men spent in their own personal pursuit of each other without any introduction service involved and many mistakes.

Fourth: We understand what it is like to search unsuccessfully for that "perfect woman" and how it feels to spend time searching for someone to eliminate the loneliness felt during the process. The Internet was even more frightening -- not knowing who was "really" on the other end of a conversation or e-mail. We are sure some, if not all of this sounds very familiar to you.

Fifth: We know how to assist you properly articulate your own vision so our work is synonymous with all your hopes and desires. And we can assure you that there will never be a shortage of interesting and attractive women to know and meet during this process.
If you have very specific requirements (and there are a great many of them!) we are experienced at utilizing every resource our firm has assembled over 8 years of industry-leading performance as effectively as possible to find your future life partner. We will leave no effort untried in our quest to satisfy you.

Why don't you offer tours like some of the other agencies in South America? First of all, each company differs in style and substance. Some of our competitors in other countries, specialize in ìsocialsî- mass parties where you compete with about 40 other men for the attention of about 200 ladies, not of whom may be your ìtypeî. We shy away from socials because there is no privacy, and it is difficult for the men to really get to know the ladies, particularly when several other men are at his elbow waiting their turn. We only do one-on-one meetings that allow you and lady to ask questions for one another. Itís much faster in terms of getting to know where you stand.

Secondly, many of the women that go to these socials are invited just to have sheer number in attendance. Many of them are not interested in a long term relationship and in fact some of them are married. They are there, as I said for numbers, and for something to do, like free dinner, girlís night out, etc.

Who is our personal service for? Our programs are not for everyone. If you are positive, realistic and willing to try, this is a no non-sense way of bringing you high quality women, commitment - minded women selected to match your personal criteria in a partner. If you are ready to settle down with 9 or 10 you need this service. The only limitation to overcome is skepticism, complacency and a closed mind.

There are some negative stereotypes floating around about the men and the women that participate in this. Theyíre the same stereotypes small-minded people believe about other races of people, other religions, and other cultures. In short, they donít know what theyíre talking about because they base their opinions on rumors. Itís your life, your future. You decide for yourself and base that decision on what you want. Forget about what your friends may think. Unless theyíre small minded and prejudiced, they will accept your decision as the healthy, normal alternative that it is. Donít deny yourself that opportunity because of what some other people may think. Ultimately, itís your opinion that matters, not someone elseís.

Does VivaAmar offer good value for money? Your membership prices look like expensive... VivaAmar fees are based on the principle of providing a high quality service at a keen price. Our service is unique and that is the reason why people join VivaAmar. A lower quality service at a cheaper price would not attract the same caliber of membership.

A substantial part of VivaAmar income goes into search cost and administration. We spend more on Public Relations than any other comparable service in South America. Remember this is in your interest. It is vital, therefore, that our fees are sufficient to fund this necessary activity.

If there is any doubt in your mind about whether or not we offer value for money, consider that our membership fee works out at less than the total cost of a foreign holiday or what you would spend on social activities over a short period of months. You are not limited for choice with a wide selection of other lower cost memberships.

VivaAmar is just like other professional services - it frees up your time, makes the right decisions for you, and is an investment in a better, more fulfilling future.

What sort of foreign men join VivaAmar? VivaAmar promotions aim deliberately at unattached people with high standards. The people who come to VivaAmar are looking for more than can be found in the usual discos or pubs. Because of the limitations and quality of the conventional social scene, they know from experience that they are unlikely to meet the person they seek in those venues.

Many of the people who join VivaAmar hear about us through friends. The main source of new enquiries is, in fact, friends of either people who have used our service themselves or people who have heard about our success. VivaAmar has a well-established reputation for providing an excellent service.

You can be confident about meeting people through VivaAmar. All our members are very socially acceptable - many are exceptional. They are people who will treat you with friendliness and courtesy when you meet them. Remember that you will only be meeting people, who we feel, will be compatible with your preferences as stated in your VivaAmar Application form.

Why VivaAmar? Now, that valid question is easy to answer. VivaAmar is an optimal choice for individuals who do not wish to go through the hit-or-miss approach of a computerized service. This unique approach gives you the opportunity to create their own matches using a service that is run by a real live Matchmaker. This service is unique because the Matchmaker is always watching, unlike other online dating services, and may from time to time recommend a match you may have overlooked!

How Confidential is VivaAmar? VivaAmar pays particular attention to your need for privacy and discretion in your personal matters. This is extremely important to our members. For that reason confidentiality is strictly adhered to.

We never show your photographs to other members. It is worth noting that most of our members would be extremely unhappy with having their photograph viewed by other members.

Details of your identity are never divulged without your approval for each introduction. We then only give your first name.

If you do not wish to give out your telephone number, you may assume the responsibility for telephoning the other person to make the arrangement to meet.

VivaAmar members will also respect your confidentiality. It is a strict condition for remaining in VivaAmar that members use discretion and courtesy in contacting other members and that they also respect the confidentiality of other members.

Why do I need VivaAmar? VivaAmar brings a consultative approach to personal search assignments. We bring together high caliber individuals by building close relationships with our clients, getting to know every individual on a personal level, and by pre-screening and pre-qualifying clients. This provides a depth of knowledge you would not otherwise get in a casual acquaintance. In fact, such depth of resources are unmatched by any other firm in our industry.

Our results are measurable and lasting - VivaAmar has successfully arranged many marriages and hundreds of relationships.

We emphasize quality over quantity. It is not the volume of dates VivaAmar finds for you; rather it is our unique ability to help our clients find the right match, the right relationship - that defines our success.

Lastly, most VivaAmar clients do not have the time or the inclination to date randomly. They know what they want and look to VivaAmar to provide a high-level focused approach, the expertise and an exceptional pool of individuals to identify their ideal mates.

We have many stories from "the other sideî (dating services, personal adds, travel group). Tales of men looking for a "bride," telling their stories to a good hearted, unsuspecting foreign woman who discovers - often too late -- the person they "thought" was sincere was not even close. Perhaps you've heard these sad stories as well about good women that have spent their life savings in hopes of finding "true love" with an American or European man only to have those hopes dashed and find themselves in financial ruin in a very short time.

In the last couple of years, the number of foreign dating agencies representing single American or European men has increased dramatically, yet no introductions organization provides secure and private services such as those offered by VivaAmar. Our service is intended for serious single people who are searching for a committed or lifetime partner. You can truly rely on VivaAmar.

Most of all, you need VivaAmar because you are selective, intelligent and too busy man who knows (who appreciates what a team of experienced and dedicated professionals can do for you) that having a professional firm introduce you to attractive, compatible individuals you never would have met your own, individuals who are looking for a committed long-term relationship as much as you are, is worth something.

I date frequently, why would I pay a consultant to meet someone? VivaAmar is for people who do not have trouble finding dates - they simply want a more productive, results oriented approach to finding their mate.

You might enjoy dating multiple people, but if your objective is to find someone to fall in love with and spend the rest of your life with, then why wouldn't you go about it in the most strategic, focused way available to you? You invest wisely in other aspects of your life, in your profession, finances - why stop short in your personal life?

VivaAmar is just like other professional services - it frees up your time, makes the right decisions for you, and is an investment in a better, more fulfilling future.

But the kind of people I am looking for would never join an agency. The stigma of using a resource to help you find your mate is long since dissipated. You are probably no different from every other discriminating busy executive who would like to meet someone special but who has too little time, and is tired and unsatisfied with the average venues for meeting other singles.

Female Candidates from VivaAmar aren't the type of women you'd find in the average dating service, in the classifieds, or online. Simply, our clients have a lot to offer and are selective about whom they meet. They join because they are serious about making a commitment. When someone pays for a membership and takes the time to go through our process, they are serious about finding a quality partner. They place their romantic future in our capable hands so we can more effectively find them what they are looking for. VivaAmar introductions are valuable. By the time you have met the person we introduce you to, you have advance knowledge and understanding of the person.

The question you need to ask yourself is, would you rather have someone rescreened and pre-qualified for you, or do you have endless time on your hands?

I'm incredibly busy and barely have time for myself, let alone the time to devote to a service like this. Why should I bother? You want a relationship. Someone to share your accomplishments, love and life with. You keep meeting people you are attracted to, but find after several dates they're not for you.

A busy professional life seldom allows for dating, let alone the time and energy it takes to find the right person. And this is exactly why VivaAmar is right for you.

VivaAmar enables you to make quality use of your time. Instead of spending energy on weeding through prospective mates and unfulfilling relationships, VivaAmar precisely identifies what you're looking for and matches you to only those individuals who meet your discerning tastes and measures.

We manage your time for you, helping you spend it with that quality person, rather than on a quantity of people.

How is VivaAmar different from its competition? If you are tired of spoiled and materialist women that North Hemisphere produces... sick of dating sites who are not going anywhere and bring you down. If you are still searching without success in wrong places...then it is for you.

Some people refer to it as seeing "the big picture." Others talk of our ability to identify opportunities, to discover new directions. VivaAmar it all comes down to vision, and specific, practical plans to bring your vision of a romantic relationship into reality. At VivaAmar, we help hard-working professionals achieve personal relationship success through our proven methodology.

VivaAmar is not a numbers game. You meet only people you are uniquely qualified for. And we don't find those qualifications by asking what your favorite color is, or if you would rather have a dog or a cat. VivaAmar digs deeper - to personal beliefs, goals, ambitions, and preferences.

Our methodology is unique in the industry. We screen each candidate personally over a 1-2 hour interview. We offer criminal background checks, continually build intelligence into our proprietary database, and are completely confidential.

Is VivaAmar a safe venue for meeting people? Safety is a paramount concern for many people when meeting someone new. All VivaAmar potential candidates are screened in-person during a 1-2 hour formal interview before qualifying to become a female candidate.

Upon acceptance, VivaAmar performs a background check. This screening process provides you with the assurance you would not otherwise get in a casual dating atmosphere.

As a result of the screening process, you are assured of meeting only the most compatible, eligible and responsible individuals.

How will you protect my privacy? Protecting your privacy isn't just important to VivaAmar, it's a principal of our service offering. Our clients lead busy, often public lives, as leaders in their industries. We fully respect that some clients prefer to keep their use of a personal search firm confidential.

VivaAmar never divulges its list of clients to anyone. VivaAmar absolutely never gives out any personal information such as addresses, places of employment, referral names, and associations you may be a member of.

I've used other dating services in the past, and the experience was less than I expected. Why should I try VivaAmar? VivaAmar knows how to find the right dates for you and we know how to work with you to do so. We have made it our goal to help foreign gentlemen and Argentinean women connect by using a service that takes most of the guesswork, anxiety and fear out of the matchmaking process, a service that matches, as closely as possible, quality men with quality women for a lifetime.

We also know how to assist you properly articulate your own vision so our work is synonymous with all your hopes and desires. And we can assure you that there will never be a shortage of interesting and attractive women to know and meet during this process.

If you have very specific requirements (and there are a great many of them!) we are experienced at utilizing every resource our firm has assembled over 8 years of industry-leading performance as effectively as possible to find your future partner. We will leave no effort untried in our quest to satisfy you.

We are convinced that when you meet us, and experience our service, you will not only see the difference personal matching provides, you will wonder why you ever tried other services.

Does this really work? Yes! We are not going to lie to you though. It is going to be a lot of work. A heck of a lot of work! You will need to take your time to really get to know many women to make a wise decision. You will have to deal with language and cultural barriers as well as the normal problems associated with a long distance relationship, but it does work and it is a tremendously satisfying and enriching experience. Ask yourself this- How much work will it take you to find the wife of your dreams in your own town? Is it even possible? By using international Matchmaking Agency to meet your wife you will learn new things, be exposed to new cultures and new life views along the way.

We select the people for you. You can enjoy meeting them! The best way of meeting potential partners is through VivaAmar one to one introduction service.

What if I am dissatisfied with the service? Because we strive so hard to take care of them, we are proud to say our members, with few exceptions, rank the quality of our service as exceptional. Still, with matchmaking there can be no guarantee of the outcome and we can not refund fees once service has been rendered. Please allow us to repeat this as to avoid any possible misunderstanding: once a membership has begun there will be no refund of the membership Deposit Fee because we do use this fund to cover scouting financial costs. However, you may rest assured that if we fail to live up in any way to your reasonable expectations, we will do our utmost to rectify the situation and find a fair and equitable solution that will leave you feeling satisfied and content.

About the Women

Do they expect a foreign man to move to Argentina or will be willing to move abroad? All women we represent are ready to relocate if they find a suitable partner. If there is no clear indication of the country of residence in a woman's requirements for a potential partner, it means she will consider a man from any country (if he meets her other requirements).

Why some Argentinean women seek lifepartner abroad? The fundamental reason why Argentinean women look for a life partner abroad is that they are not happy in their love life and cannot find a suitable partner in Argentina. It is that simple!

The real reason behind that is that the cultural notion for an Argentinean woman is to get married and have a family; this is the necessary condition of success for a woman. This is why even successful career women feel unfulfilled if they don't have a husband and family, and some of them use search for a partner abroad as an option. They do it because they want to meet a suitable partner for marriage.

Argentinean women do not choose between Argentinean men and foreign men. They choose between staying single, having her own family, to love and be loved Security, and a better life go as a part of the package.

Are Argentinean women's personalities different from Western European or Northern American women? yes, they are a bit different. They do not have a different type of character, and they also love shopping and chatting. They are human beings and they are definitely not perfect. The main difference is that they are much more patient and can tolerate things that Western European women will never be able to bear. They are more considerate and dependable. They are partners, not competitors.

Argentinean women are well groomed, stylish, educated, and intelligent but they pay less attention to sport, diets, etc. Nevertheless, they are rarely overweight - they still walk a lot because they do not have cars, and do not eat junk food, which is considered expensive. They do not have to make an effort to live healthy - it just comes natural.

Are Argentinean women interested in living in any other countries apart from United State? Seems most of the women are only interested in America. Actually, very few women would like to go only to the US, most of them do not mind about a country if it's the right guy.

Many women are interested in particular countries like Canada, Nederland, Spain, France, Italy, Australia, and others. Usually the reason for that is family members or friends who are staying there.

I would like to meet some Argentinean women but I am not out to look for a wife immediately, rather a friend first and then see what happens. Do women expect more? You can state clearly from the very beginning that you are interested in establishing friendship first. The majority of the women seeking partners do expect more, but if they decide to keep contact with you, it will mean that they accept your position.

There is nothing wrong with your position, and if you do not feel ready for starting a long-term relationship right now, you may try to start with friendship. Beware though, that a woman can accept somebody else's offer, even if she really likes you, just because she is not sure about your intentions.

Can Argentinean women speak English? Most of the women who apply to VivaAmar can at least read and understand English.

They all study English at school for 5 years. English is a compulsory subject at universities and colleges and one will not be able to get her degree without completing a 3-year course of English through her tertiary education. So if your lady has a degree, she has studied English for 10 years!

About 20% of women speak English well, and other 30% can communicate on a decent level; others who never used the language in their life forget it with the time and can only read and translate - but the base is there, so they are usually able to start speaking English fluently in 6-8 months when live in an English speaking country.

Is there a considerable difference between Argentinean and other women of Latin America - for example, Colombian or Mexican? There are some particular cultural differences between women from different countries of Latin America but in general all information on my site is applicable to women from all the countries. The differences are not significant.

Colombian women are more outgoing and open, Argentinean are more reserved. At the same time a Colombian wife is more likely to argue about the things than an Argentinean. But of course that mostly depends on personality not nationality.

Would a Argentinean lady be interested in living in a small town? Argentinean women do not know and understand the difference between small towns in Argentina and abroad, and they just have this instinctive fear towards small towns. My advice is to use the following tactics when meeting them: Tell more about your town, its entertainment, restaurants and cafes, TV reception and other attractions, weather conditions etc. - everything that you like there. Do not try too hard - you must just say how nice the place is and why you like to live there. If you stay there because one can make very good living, mention it. Show a nice picture featuring you city in summer - with flowers or a lake, or anything nice and warm. Tell her where you can go for better entertainment like opera or theatre, and how far the place is.

What age difference is acceptable for Argentinean women? Virtually all women will not have a problem with age difference up to 10 years, and many find acceptable age difference up to 15 years, a few will be OK with age difference up to 20 years.

Young girls tend to be less worried about difference in age than older women : a girl of 20-25 years old is normally interested in men up to 30-35, whilst a woman of 25-30 years old will usually limit her search to men under 45. Thus, if you are 45, a girl of 30-35 years old may consider you a suitable candidate and a girl of 20-25 may decide you are too old for her.

I'm divorced. Is that a problem? Many of our clients are divorced and it's rarely a criterion by which the women will judge you. We recommend bringing up the circumstances of your divorce once you become serious with a woman. Remember honesty is the best policy.

Is there a charge for the women who participate on your service? This service is absolutely 100% completely free to all women (who qualify). They will never ever pay a dime to our service because most attractive women feel they don't have to pay for a service in order to get a lifepartner, and most are right, but some are too proud to join. So to make it more appealing to attractive women, our Exclusive Personal Search was designed. VivaAmar is concentrated on looks and personality mainly because of this company's marketing strategy and not because of other factors. We chose "100% free to all women" because this company chose to invest on quality women and not just spend on them. VivaAmar invests a lot of time and money to find the right women, so that our results are great and to also attract new Memberships.

Are the women on your service really interested in a permanent and serious relationship and marriage, or just coming to America and to escape economic conditions in her country? First of all, most of these women are very educated professionals, have good jobs or careers and some even own their own businesses. They also have extremely close family ties, part of the Argentinean culture. Second, becoming an US or European citizen is a very long and involved process, which could take two or more years. While citizenship is a factor, there are many other more important factors for these women to consider. What they really want is someone they can trust, depend on, and have a close relationship with. They certainly do not want to leave their friends and family and move to a strange new place and finds out they are not compatible with the person they are committed to. While these women hope to meet someone that is financially stable, it is not necessary to be wealthy or to have many possessions. Most of these women have indicated they would like to work and contribute to the family in whatever country they end up in.

Aren't these women just after money? Security is an important factor for any woman, but the women of Latin America are typically non-materialistic. They might be concerned with your ability to help care for a family, but material possessions are not of much importance. In fact, we've seen many men with money complain of a lack of response when they brag about their possessions and turn the women off. We think you will be pleasantly surprised with their honesty and non-materialism.

Why would these beautiful girls be interested in me? I am not exactly Tom Cruise or Richard Gere. An average American man is not average to an Argentina. Unlike many women in the US, you will find that Argentinean women appreciate personal qualities such as honesty, respect, sensitivity, faithfulness, and loyalty. Simply put, Argentinean women are much more appreciative of the more important qualities in a man. Of course looks will play a role, Tom Cruise look-alike will get better responses than others, but trust, stability, loyalty, and a warm relationship are much more important factors for most Argentinean women than looks. It's takes a lot of trust in someone to leave your home, family, and friends to begin a new life in a foreign country. These ladies are looking more for character and trust than looks or wealth.

I am more than 50 years of age. Does this matter? Age difference is not the principle question, they consider older men as the pledge of stability and safety. That's why they can marry a man with the reasonable age disparity (10-15 years). Our ladies desire to find their other half and be happy with them. They are ready to live in other country and adapt to new life conditions to be with the man they love.

How do I know these women aren't just using me to go to the US? We won't tell you that there's no incentive to find a better life for herself in the US. However, these women are also looking for a good man, a good strong marriage, AND a better future with more opportunities for herself and her future children. Many of them are involved in this because they believe American men are more loyal and make better husbands than the men of their country. There is a high degree of machismo in most Latin cultures and men with the means are generally expected to have mistresses on the side. Argentines consider North American men to be more respectful and sensitive than Latin men. They want a man who will treat them with dignity, love and respect, which can be difficult for her to find in her own country. These women have families who love them, a traditional culture and good friends. They're not overly anxious to give up everything just to go there. Becoming a US resident or citizen doesn't happen when she steps off the plane. It's a long drawn out process and takes years. After two years of marriage, she can begin the process of becoming a permanent resident.

Are all of the women located in Buenos Aires? For now, yes, but soon there will be women from others Argentinaís cities. VivaAmar is based in Buenos Aires and caters to female around.

Are the age and looks factors very important? Not as important as it is in Argentina such as U.S.A. In Argentina culture older more mature men are looked up to. We have clients on our database from all walks of life, different cultures, and varying age groups. Age does become a factor when choosing whom you will be most compatible with however, do not let it become a barrier. For many people an older person represents stability and wisdom. In many cultures it is not uncommon to see major age differences between spouses. In Argentine culture looks are not as important as being a caring, loving, faithful and sincere person. What is inside is more important than the outside. Therefore, while looks may play a minor role; stability, trust, and a warm relationship are much more important factors. !!!Ah, you believe you can find a beautiful young wife even though you're 40, 50, or more. Well, you're correct. Some of these ladies will accept much older men and it is true that most are hesitant to marry anyone younger than they are. However, marriages between much older men and young women tend to be less successful than those between a couple with no more than 12-15 years difference. You will be more likely to be marrying a woman who is more interested in changing her life than in you. Only you can make the decision as to whether or not to pursue a relationship with a much younger woman. We suggest that you ask yourself this question- "Do I truly prefer the company of X year-olds to people my own age?" Don't just imagine beautiful young women when you ask yourself this. If you can truly answer yes to that question, then perhaps you can make it work. Just be prepared for difficulties, because you're far more likely to encounter them in this type of situation. As we said before, if you want to buy into a dream, go somewhere else. We'll tell it like it REALLY is. Most of the younger women will want to have children. If you're intention is not to have anymore children, you should make it clear to her at the outset of your correspondence. You might also want to try some of the ladies that already have a child. In general they prefer mature, stable men who will be loyal and love them as well as their child.

How difficult is it for her to come to the United States for a visit? Most of these ladies do not have visas. Unless they have a long solid history of gainful employment, proof of substantial assets, they will not qualify for a tourist visa. The US does not admit anyone they suspect may wish to go there to look for work. It's necessary to show that the person has substantial holdings in their native country and will be returning there. Some of the women do come from wealthy families and have visas, but these are the minority. FiancÈe visas, which are good for 90 days, are available, but you have to meet in person to get one of these and it generally takes about 3 months to get one. Any agency leading you to believe you won't have to travel to meet a woman is being dishonest with you. That is a possibility, but in the vast majority of cases, the man will have to travel to meet his woman friend first before she can go there. The visa process is not instant; it can sometimes take up to several months. Typical times are 2-3 months from start to finish of the immigration process. You should definitely make plans for this BEFORE you plan a visit. You can get the forms free by calling the nearest INS office and requesting them. The process is not difficult and for those of you that do it yourself, you will be shocked at how little work immigration lawyers do for fees sometimes exceeding $1,500. You will have to deal with a large government agency though (you will find that the service at the DMV looks good compared to the INS). If you do not want to do the paper work yourself, we recommend that you seek out the services of a Para legal rather than a lawyer. A simple process should be much cheaper than what most lawyers' are charges for it.

Why should I be so confident about the candidates that will I receive? VivaAmar is designed for serious men who want to meet real beautiful women (Body-Mind-Spirit). A flood of fake profiles on other major sites have risen dramatically, but with many victims already taken. This service is dedicated to eliminating fake profiles and scammers. Through intense scrutiny and verification of all candidates through in-person interviews. All profiles will also be cross checked for verification. We provide the safest matchmaking experience around through careful in person interviews and screening background. We know all of them personally, meet or call them almost 2-3 times every month. All checked and approved. So quality control is tight! Our process of selection is highly competitive and only the best women are approved to become a VivaAmar candidate.

At VivaAmar you find real women who truly desire get their soul mate. Each potential candidate must first be qualified by our Matchmaker Manager. We make every reasonable attempt to ensure that each women is single, free from criminal records and has a sincere desire to develop a relationship.

We do our best to screen out any problem ones but there are no guarantees. The candidates you will receive are selected from several applicants. Women do not become candidates just because they are beautiful. Their application information plays a large role in the acceptance process. Every female candidate is selected carefully with your profile in mind. You will only receive women that match your requirements.

About the Process

How do you obtain qualified Women? Selective Personal Search is where our Women's Huntresses Team goes outside our normal database and personally searches for specific people based on the clients' criteria. We do not recruit from modeling agencies. We use no third party agencies to recruit them. VivaAmar candidates are not professional models, but whose occupations range from simple laborers to professional positions.

Like so many good things in life, finding beautiful women who qualify takes a lot of work; to get things all cleared up: most attractive Argentinean women feel they don't need an agency in order to get dates or a husband, and most are right. They are too proud to join so they feel uncomfortable using an agency, yet would be interested in meeting a foreign man from North America or Europe if they were well informed about his quality by our Public Relations and Women¥s Huntress Team. For this reason our staff goes outside of the agency looking for women who qualify. It plays an important psychological role in the acceptance process.

They approach woman who match your physical requirements. First we ask her if she is single also if she would like to know a foreign man like you. If so, they go to quiet place for discussion. During this time our Public Relations & Women's Huntress work closely with them to observe their character, lifestyle, motive and sincerity in meeting and creating a long-term relationship. If she seem sincere we arrange an interview with our Matchmaker at our office. We have found this unique process to be very successful.

Although we also advertise in magazines for women as well as major local newspapers, the most attractive women are found through our Selective Personal Search Process. In addiction, new women - if they qualify, are added by word-of mouth referrals and recommendation from women that were successful in finding their mates through us.

Where do you find beautiful women? Our Women's Huntress make it a point to meet people all the time, where ever they go. By incorporating this routine into their daily life, they have met female candidates waiting in line at the supermarket, in beauty salons, airports, restaurants, elevators, and parks as well as from referrals. They will meet women anywhere, anytime, any place to find that "needle in a haystack" for you. We make use of over 10 ëScoutsí; their role is to locate high-quality, available single women for our clients. Our Scouts are smart, classy women who also attend the latest cultural events, openings, upscale clubs, discos, pubs, single events, vacation spots, etc. Destinations we know that attract a particular kind of woman. We are everywhere, so you do not have to be.

How do you match your clients? VivaAmar makes interviews from new prospective candidates every day through scouts who search locally.We meet ever potential candidate personally. During the initial meeting, Ignacio talks about everything from a "wish list" to family values. If he has any feeling that the woman is not sincere about meeting a foreign men, she is refused membership.There are no computer programs to match clients properly. This is what is unique about the VivaAmar service in terms of a "hands on" approach with extensive follow-up and feedback after each introduction. We have a "sixth" sense so we just know who belongs with whom.

How long does it take to get results? We take our responsibility of matching couples very seriously. We do not just "throw" clients together. We get matched some clients in 2/3 weeks from the beginning, others in 1/2 months. This only means that situation with your life or person is harder to match. Have patience and know that once we have begun your Selective Personal Search all efforts will be made to work around your schedule and convenience so once a good match is found it will be immediately pre-introduced for your evaluation.

How many candidates will I receive? Not as many as you probably think. Our focus is on quality of suitable matches not big number of incompatible women to meet as you not have time or interest for that. Better to meet a few great candidates than many so-so dates.

We would consider that by interviewing 15 potential candidates - during 2 months of personal search, a 60% "Acceptance" rate as "not bad". That's the average. Some men do better, some men do worse. We could emphasize the client who get 10 interviews and all 10 prospective women agree to meet him, but if we don't include the other client who get 10 interviews and got only 2 or 3 acceptances, we would be giving you only one side (the good one) of the picture. Keep in mind that - unlike others foreign dating or email order brides services, finding "the one" through our service may involve a few matches. Above all, VivaAmar is a place where nice people really do finish first!

Can I contact female candidates before my arrival? Every time you express a reciprocal interest, we will then ask you to write a Brief Essay where you may reveal to the candidate you have selected as much about yourself as you wish, things that we would not see in your profile. You may personalize each letter by writing items from her profile in which you share a common interest, or if you prefer by using the same letter you have wrote for all candidates.

Please consider that each pre-introduction that we offer is selected for you based on our knowledge of you and the person that we recommend you. It is difficult to do this by relying solely on information from our VivaAmar Application form that you have completed. For this reason we ask you for that.

You may write her about the following things: your home and town, parents cultural background, your job or business, future financial arrangements, if you have children ñ their gender, names and ages, your typical day, values, heritage, background, any other information or comments you may feel relevant to tell her.

Your Brief Essay will fully introduce you to the candidate you have selected. Then every candidate that has shown interest in getting to know you better will write you a response letter only one time through us. Typically, first replies from candidates are very reserved since they are seeking your approval prior to moving to the next step. At this time details both parties as email addresses and phone numbers will not be displayed. We have found this unique process to be very successful.

All Compatible candidates selected will be put hold on until your arrival. Only you will be introduced to them, nobody else.

We will call to every candidate already selected at least twice a month in order to know if she has maintained her single status or if she has met someone outside our service before you arrive. We will continue this process until you have reached your desired amount of candidates from our Selective Personal Search.

Why canít I exchange emails prior the first meeting face-to-face? Getting results isnít just important to VivaAmar; it's a principal of our service offering. Years ago, we have been allowing the exchange of emails prior the first meeting one-on-one but due to different situations that have jeopardized our success, we have changed our method so since 2000 we are delivering much better results.

On the one hand, we've seen some well matched clients trying to start a relationship via email and over the phone and we know first-hand that keeping one from vaporizing into digital dust once they have met is no easy matter.

On the other hand, we've seen also some matches fell in love from the long-distance before the first meeting! When they met each other in the real world the date has failed in the first 30 minutes.

In some cases, the lifespan of their initial long-distance relationship has been very short. They seem to sprout, bloom and die much faster than their real life counterparts and are prone to all the same failures as conventional ones, plus a few more that really complicate matters.

Letís think:

*Obviously, the pictures we have showed one another are for real and updates so in person most of them look like their photos - even, as a matter of fact, we should say that most of the Argentinean women look much better than their photos.

*There are chances that their appearance on the photos not represents the way they really look in person so it was an unfortunate distortionÖ but this is not the point. It is infrequent. Their true appearance are always somewhere near the middle of several photos ñ good and bad photos included, we have sent both parties so one another have expressed us highest interest in each other.

*Of course, by using our method nobody can tell a lie about themselves because both parties have received from us a personal profile with a trusted and detailed description so nobody will be disappointed about that. Fortunately at VivaAmar it never happens. In addiction, we make sure about sincerity and good intentions of our women.

*At VivaAmar we cannot guarantee chemistry on the first date so it could be one reason for failure but we greatly reduce the chances of rejection and non-reciprocation because both parties have been matched up based on mutual physical requirements and reciprocal consent.

So why didnít work?

We have verified that these cases share the same reasons for failure:

Getting started a relationship via email only provides us an exposure to a small part of a person. It creates an out of context impression of that person. You can be anyone when you're online or over the phone, for better or for worse. We are just talking about normal people trying to be someone by writing an email that they're not in the real world. You just might be falling in love with a completely fictitious character improved in a great measure from The Way of communicating through letters or over the phone. The options are endless and only limited by their own mind. Fantasies we made about others can be wonderful things until we try to live one in the real world.

There are a lot of downfalls with exchanging emails in order to know more about each other until to make the big move to overcome the geography that separates one another. Most people are different behind an email than they are in person because people tend to be more outgoing online making an effort to show themselves better than really they are. Undoubtedly, people have many real and unconscious temptations to "alter" personalities and characters online. We are not saying that people lie. Here at VivaAmar it is impossible. They just cannot exposure their real human side. As a result, you two could be anyone when you're online, for better or for worse. You two add nothing, you two get nothing. You two need better communication and computers can't provide that.

Emails donít speak anything about their authors so you always encounter surprises about her and vice versa when you finally meet. You cannot clearly "see" the person behind the letters. When people that had been corresponding for a significant amount of time finally meet and their online love is gone they hardly knew each other as real people.

The computer seems like such an impersonal method of knowing each other. Being human beings, we require a physical connection to fall in love. Certain nuances are lost when we know others online. No matter how many letters you have exchanged, however, nothing can replace chemistry. Usually people even turn out to be more interesting and attractive in person rather than in letters. People look much better in person ñ when they have their cute expressions, habits, and so on.

The exchange of emails is more prone to deception than the real world. As mentioned above, there are certain mannerisms that people have that reveal their true personality. The email hides this completely, and so you can't tell whether or not you're talking to the real person. Computers can do a lot of things, but the one thing they can not do is simulate all the subtle mannerisms and reactions that humans have.

Another bad side of starting relationship through emails and over the phone is that both parties could be committing many innocent mistakes and misunderstandings arising from unconsidered language differences; Sometimes the reaction of women/men on this/that sentence or phrase is interpreted incorrectly by men/women, so that the response reaction can be inadequate as well, leading a relationship sliding downward before it even has a chance to get off the ground. These gaps in communication ñ by writing or speaking a different language without a face to face human Interaction - provoke most of acute barriers.

Because of these reasons, we doubt very much that serious relationships can really develop from the beginning by exchanging emails. Sooner or later, the frustration of trying to start a realistic relationship is going to end up and destroying the chances of a potential on-going relationship, which we have previously matched well.

Did you know that over 80% of these ìstarting relationshipî via the exchange of emails does fail on the first face to face meeting? Yes, such as you have read, quite the reverse the email order bride industry saysÖDid you know that without exchanging emails prior arrivals 20% of our clients couple up in the first introduction and another 25% need only three introductions before pairing off to form a couple during the first visit?

For years, we have verified that the practice of exchanging emails to start a realistic and serious relationship actually lowers the chances of a successful first meeting one-on-one. We always have believed in starting and building relationship only through face-to-face interaction so we are not interested in compromising our track record by changing our method for another one, which had no proven success. We are not an Email Order Brides or a Foreign Dating site. VivaAmar International Matchmaking Agency is a very personal, individualized approach that gives you the opportunity to work with a Professional Matchmaker and a Womenís Huntresses Team to create your very own matches.
