Valentine’s day is less than a month away and some singles might be anticipating the loneliness and ‘loserness’ that society pressures us to feel. So how do you find love?
New York Times has an article about match making agencies using algorithms to help decide the best partners.
People aren’t so good at picking their own mates online.
“They think they know what they want,” Dr. Finkel said. “But meeting somebody who possesses the characteristics they claim are so important is much less inspiring than they would have predicted.”
The new matchmakers may or may not have the right formula. But their computers at least know better than to give you what you want.
Which reminds of a quote by Oscar Wilde.
When the gods wish to punish us they answer our prayers.
Maybe my Indian colleagues are onto something with their arranged marriages.
Anyway, if you insist on looking for love, check out this site - Hitchoo.
