This guy is serious about analyzing your character, its flaws and features. Least of all, it must surely ensure that the people you’re going to find on this site are highly motivated in their endeavor to meet someone. You probably won't find any “just curious” or “nothing better to do on a Friday night” singles here. Only the true hardcore daters with an actual mate-finding mission in mind would put in such a concerted effort to find the right person.

"Visit eHarmony if you want to try something that promises truly accurate matches..."

A standardized personality test can’t be any more accurate than the quiz in last month’s Cosmo, right? I did find the report generated by Dr. Warren’s multi-stage, multi-page profile analysis was pretty much on the mark when it came to describing me, so maybe it isn’t all hooey. You know who I am but how exactly do you find my type’s perfect match?

Think of all the clichés: “opposites attract”, “two peas in a pod”, “birds of a feather flock together”, “ebony and ivory”, “it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white” – okay, I threw in some song titles one of which doesn’t even make sense in this context, but I am delirious after filling out so many less-than-obvious queries. There are no straightforward questions such as favorite color or flavor of ice cream. It isn’t as simple as finding someone who gave the same answers or all the opposite responses—or is it?

Rather than continuing to ponder the magical machinations of the Warren match-up method, I’ll return to the simple facts about the site. After having spent much time filling out the required information, my analysis was not instantaneously provided. Instead, I read the FAQs and lo and behold, it was explained the site only plans to give me 12 to 25 results per year. Expecting anything in the first few hours was expecting too much.

Warren’s unique and “patented” process was never designed to be fast. However, as “special” as the system may be, $50 a month for your membership is not quite as ideal as you'd expect. Visit eHarmony if you want to try something that promises truly accurate matches, but not if you plan to meet someone fast or soon.
