Formula for finding true love!

Finding a perfect match has now moved beyond astrology and star signs.

Oxford University academicians have developed a scientific formula that will be put to use by the website eHarmony.com.au to find the most compatible match.

This dating service uses the patented 'Compatibility Matching System' to find appropriate partners for its members based on their psychological profiles. The website will soon be launched in Australia.

This project is one of the biggest of its kind and involves the study of over more than 700 Australian married couples to develop a country-specific match-making formula. In order to have a first date sanctioned, prospective couples should be matched on "29 key dimensions" such as emotional temperament, social style, intelligence and spiritual beliefs.

According to eHarmony psychologist Dr Galen Buckwalter, the criteria guarantees that couples will have almost an 80 per cent probability of being among the happiest long-term relationships.
To get the psychological profile, new members are made to undergo a rigorous assessment that includes 256 questions to determine their personality type, beliefs and values. Then their psychological profiles are processed in a matching system to find potential matches for a successful long-term relationship.

"What we see constantly is that, in general, similarities are much more preferable for long-term relationship satisfaction. It's not like you are looking for your clone but it does seem that if your basic personality is fairly similar, you have a much better chance of understanding each other emotionally. Some of the formulas we are using in Australia are unique but we don't reveal the secret sauce; it's a competitive business," said Dr Buckwalter, head of eHarmony's research and development.

He pointed out emotional reactivity or how quickly a person responds with an emotion and socialising habits as crucial factors in finding a good match. However, he ruled out the belief that opposites attract, claiming that this may be true for first glances but not long-term relationships.

"Opposites attract but then they attack. If you are different in fundamental traits, you seem to spend a lot of emotional energy working out differences,

wah... memang benar nih...
memang saye dari dulu lagi carik yg banyak persamaan. sebab senang nanti for da long-term relationship (i.e kawin). contohnya seperti yg cara berfikir, lifestyle, intelligence, halatuju hidup... basically, personalitinya lebih kurang sama antara keduanya..

sy penah berdebat dgn pompuan2 di luar sana pasa benda nih. most of them tak bersetuju pasal persamaan personaliti ni adalah penting for da long-term relationship. Macam2 alasan diberikan, n ada yg bagi alasan laki n pompuan mane boleh sama... (what a reason!) memang betul, ada kajian mengatakan pompuan cara berfikirnya lebih kepada emosi n cara lelaki berfikir akan mengambil kira byk aspek. Tapi dalam perbezaan antara 2 cara berfikir nih, mesti ada persamaan yg melengkapi satu sama lain.

seperti contoh la kes saya ni, saya kalo bercakap mesti my-ex akan fikir ke arah lain. Kadang2 penat nak terangkan benda yg sama banyak kali, sebab cara berfikirnya yg berbeza sama sekali. Nak cakap direct tak boleh, sebab dier amat la sensitif . Kadang2 jadik tekanan n sakit kepale dibuatnyer. Macam mana relationship nak harmony n tahan lame kalo camni la caranya hari2.. kalau banyak similarities antara keduanya, kalau ada apa2 masalah timbul in da future, tak kira masalah besar atau kecil, mesti boleh ditempuhi same2 dgn baik...

just my 2 cents..
