This paper combines the theory of hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets (HFLTSs) with two-sided matching decision making (TSMDM). The related definitions of HFLTSs and two-sided matchings (TSMs) are introduced. Then, the problem of TSMDM with HFLTSs is presented. For solving this problem, a model of TSMDM with HFLTSs is developed. The AHP method is used to determine the important degrees of agents of each side. On this base, the model of TSMDM can be changed into a double-goal model with HFLTSs. Then, the double-goal model with HFLTSs is changed into the double-goal model with scores through using the proposed score function. Furthermore, the double-goal model can be changed into a single-goal model by using the linear weighting technique once again. The scheme of TSM can be obtained through solving the single-goal model. At last, an example with sensitive analysis is provided for the illustration of the presented approach of TSM
