Patti Stanger split from beau David Krause, according to multiple reports out this week. Fox News indicates that the Millionaire Matchmaker has parted ways from Krause after dating him for three years . The 54-year-old met Krause online in 2012. The two really hit it off and seemed to be very happy together. The couple was apparently serious for some time, and even exchanged “promise rings,” but they never actually got engaged.
Patti and David ended things on good terms, and are still friends.

Patti took to her blog to detail a bit about what went wrong.
“David was opposite to me in so many ways and at first, that’s what really attracted me to him. He was rugged and I’m a mush at my core. He’s a country mouse and I’m a city girl through and through. He’s a homebody and I’m out and about a lot for my job. He’s financially prudent and I’m beyond generous. Don’t get me wrong, of course we shared interests like working out, photography and movies. At our centers, though, we were completely different people. At the end of the day, you need to build a life with someone who has the same vision for their life as you do. David and I just didn’t share that.”
News that Patti Stanger split from her beau is somewhat surprising, especially because so many thought that this relationship was going to turn into a happy marriage. While Patti does her matchmaking magic for other people, she can’t seem to find herself a husband-worthy man, and many thought that David could have been the one.
According to Mail Online , Stanger was previously engaged to Andy Friedman , but the two split in 2010. At the time, Stanger said that they were “best friends” who simply wanted “different things” out of life.
Patti Stanger is open about her splits as it really is a part of who she is, and how she treats her relationships. It can be hard to find someone who keeps your interest, and has the same life goals as you do, but it can happen. Patti Stanger seems like a really positive person, and when something doesn’t work out for her, she just moves on. In fact, she makes it look easy!
If Patti wants to find love someday, and truly would like to get married, she probably will. These things have a way of just happening (when you least expect it). For now, Patti is enjoying some time with her friends — like BFF Jill Zarin ( RHONY).
