Two weeks later a mother materializes with a garden brunch that looks like Versailles on Ozempic, there is a harp, the napkins have monograms, someone serves soup and people clap like they just saw fire for the first time, and everyone agrees the match is a miracle because wealth confuses coincidence with strategy.

Parents start shopping for more miracles, there is a son who needs a personality, there are offers for Aspen like it is a coffee shop around the corner, and brunch invitations breed like rabbits in cashmere. This is not matchmaking, this is gravity at a catered event, but the rich adore a narrative that explains why their offspring spoke to another human on purpose. The trick was free and repeatable. Put two bored people near each other and get out of the way. The harp is optional.

‘I’ve got three brunch invites next month and someone offered to fly me to Aspen’: Woman introduces two bored rich kids at a fundraiser, they click immediately, and their parents decide she’s now a matchmaker for the elite
Rich people seem to treat eye contact like a merger filing, so two bored heirs at a fundraiser accidentally lock onto each other and now their parents think a professional cupid just soft-launched a business.
The room is wall to wall foundation donors auditioning for sainthood with tax receipts, the wine tastes expensive and like nothing, the silent auction is a museum of items no one needs, and two statues in formalwear are chewing air on opposite sides of the room. A basic introduction happens, not magic, not chemistry coaching, just stop being bored separately and try being bored together, and suddenly they are laughing about elite problems like summers that last too long and the burden of tasteful stonework.
