Just reading again these 2, "2 years old", old news from VentureVillage:
http://venturevillage.eu/edarling-eharmony-russia-turkey-india-poland
http://venturevillage.eu/samwer-brothers-edarling-talk-of-failed-exit-completely-wrong
In a 5th year itch now ???
Because:
eHarmony Inc. had refused to acquire the whole of Affinitas GmbH.

http://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com.ar/2014/02/some-articles-about-rocket-internet.html
and
they had high operating losses.
http://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com.ar/2014/02/more-juicy-information-from-affinitas.html
Net loss for 2012, Euros 5.8 Million and net loss for 2011, Euros 9.2 Million
Revenue Euros 41 Million in 2012, and Revenue Euros 35 Million during 2011
The
most important expense items are marketing costs to attract new
customers. Essentially, it involves television and online marketing
advertising.
Marketing Expenses were Euros 34.9 Million during 2012 and Euros 34 Million during 2011.
Personnel expenses: Euros 7,993,443.22
Euros 7,993,443.22 / 331 employees == Euros 24,149 average annual salary paid per employee.
The
remuneration, including the employer's share of pension and social
security for Management Team during 2012 amounted to Euros 377,774.24.
They copycatted eHarmony, but eHarmony is a 13+ years old obsolete site and a HOAX, based on a big scientific fraud.
