Science based shadchun?


NYTimes

IF finding true love were an exact science, we wouldn’t need matchmakers, singles bars or, of course, online dating services.

Like job seekers who take the Myers-Briggs personality test to help steer them to suitable professions, we’d simply take a relationship test, whose results would identify our most compatible types of mates and rule out the frogs. Problem solved.[...]

  1. The services are less expensive and more insightful than the services provided by a shadchan. That business which requires no investment, expertise or experience.

    Which is why you can expect shadchanim to fight tooth and nail against the 'goyishe' notions (like psychological/emotional testing) that might infringe on their income earning potential.

    If all goes well, the shadchanim are the heroes. If things collapse, the individuals are at fault.

    What a business!
