PURSUING COMPATIBILITY'S INSPIRING FOUNDING STORY: 

No words will explain exactly the pain I felt. It's a pain common to many, yet it still hurts. My emotions were all over the place. My heart felt like collapsing in my chest. I could barely breathe. My feet were heavy to carry, and I was speechless. Not knowing what to say, all I thought was, WHY? 

Once upon a time, that was ME. Two years ago, I was a woman facing the heartbreaking reality that being with a partner for eight years that I thought was meant to be forever, was just so wrong.......

All I could think of was me now being among one of the 50% separated or divorced couples. The emotions came with more than tears; it came with shame, anger, and revolt. That's why you are reading me right now.

It took me some time to have the courage to do something about my shattered heart. I told myself, "this can't be beyond repair." So I googled the internet like never before, and suddenly it sparked in me this calling to wake up and embrace inspiration.....

After this trigger, Annemarie Sheridan got to work immediately and created her company called Pursuing Compatibility.

Have you ever gone through a heart wrenching breakup or divorce where you felt, "Am I this stupid to think it was right? Why wasn't it right? How could I have not recognized issues? How could I have not known we'd grow apart? I've researched and watched so much advice, so where did I go wrong!? Was it all wrong? Was some of it right?"


THE VALUE PURSUING COMPATIBILITY PROPOSES (gives/offers)

Pursuing Compatibility realizes that you are going to have painful lessons in love, dating, and relationships. We believe that there are times in life where we have to make little messes to find out what's right. Therefore, we offer compassionate and inspirational guidance to navigate those uneasy lessons and life struggles. Instead of hearing about how we make mistakes in dating or life from unrealistic love and life coaches, you can expect to gain higher enlightenment with a creative twist. Humorous to interesting and touching stories about life experience lessons, you will improve your dating IQ, EQ, relationship intuition, and love skills in modern society.

Pursuing Compatibility is a counseling service (Tell It Like It Is) designed to offer adults a push to realizing how relationships and marriages truly work. This platform will allow members to understand the dating skills they currently have, and how they can enhance them to lead more desirable dating lives. 

Do we accept loneliness until we find "the one?" Should we not date at all unless we find "the one?" Do we pursue compatibility? Do we pursue a void to fulfill our loneliness? Do we pursue financial codependency? What do we really pursue in our relationships and even in relationships within our communities in society? What are we doing wrong as a society? All of these questions above justify why Pursuing Compatibility brings inspiration, awareness and creativity.

Nearly 50% of the American population over the age of 18 is lonely, and this only became worse with the Covid pandemic

Immense fears of starting over due to bad experiences, a bad marriage or a bad divorce or even a bad relationship

Unaware extreme naive choices resulting in prolonged heartbreak and leading to loneliness
