about GDI Editorial article: Two Psychologists Talk Compatibility Science

It is strange the word SIMILARITY is not mentioned in that article.
Moreover The key to long-lasting romance: COMPATIBILITY is exactly STRICT PERSONALITY SIMILARITY and not "meet other people with similar interests or political views". 



“Top 45 Top Scientific Papers For The Online Dating Industry”

Please remember: Personality traits are highly stable in persons over 25 years old to 45 years old. 

 
WorldWide, there are over 5,000 (five thousand) online dating sites:

- but no one is using the 16PF5 (or similar) to assess personality of its members!

- but no one calculates similarity with a quantized pattern comparison method!

- but no one can show Compatibility Distribution Curves to each and every of its members!!! i.e. if you are a man seeking women, to show how compatible you are with a 20,000,000 women database, and to select a bunch of 100 women from 20,000,000 women database.

- but no one is scientifically proven!  No actual online dating site  is "scientifically proven" because no one can prove its matching algorithm can match prospective partners who will have more stable and satisfying relationships (and very low divorce rates) than couples matched by chance, astrological destiny, personal preferences, searching on one's own, or other technique as the control group in a peer reviewed Scientific Paper for the majority (over 90%) of its members. 


Very easy to copycat eHarmony, but very difficult to innovate: a 100 times better algorithm than eHarmony.

eHarmony, Parship and ElitePartner should be closed forever for fraud!
https://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com/2018/10/about-article-wake-up-call-eharmony.html
The success rate of eHarmony is less than 10%.
eHarmony is ONLY a 18+  years old obsolete site and a HOAX, based on a big scientific fraud, only sustained by big marketing budget.
The Big Five normative test used by eHarmony, had been proven/revealed as an incomplete and incorrect model to assess/measure personality of persons. It is a HOAX, a FRAUD to use the Big Five normative test in year 2018.

eHarmony was copycatted in several countries like
the online dating sites EliteSingles / SilverSingles in Canada, Australia, USA, UK, Chile, Mexico; eDarling in Spain, German, France, Russia;
also TeAmo in Russia is another copycat of eHarmony;
esync (eSynchrony) in Singapore,
MiMediaManzana in Colombia, Peru, Mexico, Chile, etc.,
Marrily in India
and
LemonSwan in Germany and other countries.

Please be alerted, be informed Bumble is backed by Badoo (80%, majority-owned by Badoo)
It is said Badoo is related to Russian mafia of white hat hackers in the spyware business.
Badoo is in big war with Tinder (Match Group)

Match Group, Inc. (MTCH) Q3 2018

https://ir.mtch.com/static-files/3d531a02-b6f3-41b4-9b6c-739a5b7109e4


Why MTCH can not disclose revenue and paying members per site?
like Match site revenue and paying members,
Hinge revenue and paying members,
PlentyOfFish revenue and paying members,
OKCupid revenue and paying members,
Tinder revenue? etc.

For me it is clear they do not want to innovate.
They want to squeeze their big databases to get all the juice (money) from the wallets of the daters.
