Do Online Dating Filters Really Help You?
One of the main benefits of online dating is that you can search for and find other singles who fit the criteria you’re looking for. Using filters you can target by age, location, whether or not someone has kids, and sometimes even body type or ethnicity. And all of this helps you narrow down your options and find the one who’s right for you… Or does it?
According to data from the over 40 million members on the online dating site and app Zoosk, using filters while online dating may actually make it harder for you to meet someone you’re interested in.
After looking into how different people connect and start chatting, Zoosk found that people who used filters tended to send out more messages (22 messages compared to the average of 15.7) but got 11% fewer replies.
People who use filters tend to find a lot of people they’re interested in, so they’re more engaged in reaching out to those people and starting a conversation. However, they’re not leading to a deeper connection.
So what does the data mean for those of us trying to find someone? Well, while we often have a pretty good idea of what we’re looking for in another person, it may pay off to be more open-minded. Maybe we don’t actually know what we’re looking for until we find it.
One of the main benefits of meeting people in real life is that you can feel the chemistry and start a conversation with someone you might have overlooked if you’d only judged them by their basic information. Maybe you thought you’d never date someone shorter than you, but once you started talking to that short guy at the bar you found out he was hilarious and that you both work in education. Maybe you thought you’d never date a single parent, but when your friend introduced you to their next-door neighbor with two kids at a party, you couldn’t keep your eyes off her.
Online dating works the same way. While it’s good to know what you want, it’s also good to keep in mind that you might want something you haven’t even thought of yet.
Dating is a process of discovery, and what you may discover is that the person who makes you the happiest isn’t who you thought they’d be.
Hiya! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless
I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading
links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa?
My website goes over a lot of the same subjects as yours and
I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you’re interested feel free to shoot me an email.
I look forward to hearing from you! Wonderful blog by
the way!
Terrific post however , I was wondering if you could write a litte more on this topic? I’d be very grateful if you could elaborate a little bit more. Bless you!
I was wondering if you ever considered changing the page layout of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
Great info. Lucky me I came across your site by accident (stumbleupon). I have book marked it for later!

With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my agreement. Do you know any solutions to help stop content from being ripped off? I’d genuinely appreciate it.

I ain’t saying your content isn’t good.ain’t saying your content isn’t gooddon’t want to tell you how to run your blog, but what if you added a titleheadlinetitle that grabbed a person’s attention?maybe get people’s attention?want more? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little vanilla. You ought to look at Yahoo’s home page and see how they createwrite post headlines to get viewers to click. You might add a related video or a pic or two to get readers interested about what you’ve written. Just my opinion, it might bring your postsblog a little livelier.
