Jenna is hoping to find her soul mate online through a dating site. Do dating sites based on personality matching actually work?

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: Dating sites based on personality matching definitely allow people to see and communicate with a wide range of potential partners—much wider than anyone with a full-time job could ever hope to meet in "real life." So in that sense, these sites are very effective. But the effectiveness of personality matching for forming good relationships is still unknown.
