Why dating a tree surgeon can be a cut above the rest

Tuesday, June 20th, 2023

Discover 8 reasons why matching with a tree surgeon can be rooted in healthy growth for a good connection.

When it comes to the types of countryside single folk Muddy Matches attract, one area of rural life that has been branching out looking for love with extra vigour recently has been tree surgeons.

The Muddy Matches team have seen a surge in online dating profiles from single folk invested in specialist tree care. The Woodland Trust, and ‘forestry’ have also risen the popularity ranks in terms of interests and hobbies being added daily to dating profiles as well.

It’s only fitting then, especially when a host of countries celebrate Arborist Day this summer (the UK celebrate National Tree Day in November), that we explore the many reasons why tree lovers make for great muddy matches.

Physically fit
The work of a tree surgeon involves physically demanding tasks; typically scaling heights to prune, shape, treat and trim , digging out tree stumps, and lumping heavy machinery about, often whilst suspended on rigging in mid-air. Wielding those chain saws whilst harnessed are a daily workout for the arms and core strength. This usually means they have a high level of physical fitness and are in bloomin’ good shape – all of which often leads to a healthy lifestyle.

Appreciation for nature
Arborists have a deep understanding and specialist appreciation for trees and the natural environment – and they will continue to update and expand their knowledge – it’s their job after all. This nature-loving character will be endearing to people from all walks of country life and bring plenty of common ground to connect over.

Decisive, logical thinkers
Tree surgeons are brave, bold decision makers who think rationally, quickly; Making important decisions about tree safety, health, and maintenance, for example whilst topping, harnessed high up a tree, shows a composed mind that can problem solve in the unlikeliest of circumstance. That composure under pressure and decisiveness in life is so often an attractive feature which will appeal to many singles.

Practical ruggedness
We love that word ‘ruggedness; it’s maybe a little too stereotypical but tree surgeons can often extend their capable, practical nature to other areas of life which makes for an active outdoor lifestyle, and hands-on living; a perfect fit for a muddy match who ‘is happy to get their hands dirty’.

A nurturing nature
Arborists understand that trees require time, care, and patience to thrive. They have a nurturing instinct and just ‘get’ the importance of providing timely, consistent, and ongoing support to ensure the wellbeing of trees. This nurturing nature can extend beyond their work and into personal relationships, often making caring and patient partners.

An appreciation of life
Tree surgery is risky business and those folk that daily put themselves in challenging scenarios – often in inclement weather – tell us it gives them extra zest, and appreciation for life. They place great value on things close to their heart and see the importance of everyday gratitude for what they have. There’s nothing like being outside a comfort zone to see what you favour most.

Environmental consciousness
Tree surgeons often have a strong environmental consciousness and commitment to sustainability. They are acutely aware of the vital role trees playing in maintaining ecological balance. Sharing similar values and having a partner who has an active interest in green issues – as many Muddy Matches daters do – can lead to a fulfilling relationship.

A creative eye
Arborists have an eye for aesthetics, alongside tree health. They see and enhance the beauty of landscapes and take great pride in their work. They are open to offering insights into design choices for gardens and outside areas. This sense of creativity can enhance living spaces, and create a sense of tranquillity in everyday life.

Of course, it’s important to remember that the qualities mentioned above can vary from individual to individual, and not all tree surgeons may possess these traits. However, these characteristics often associated with arborists can contribute to a fulfilling and well-rounded life partnership.
