If you've watched any TV at all over the last few years, you've probably seen a commercial for Perfect Match - marketed as the premier dating site of the new century. I'm not a big believer in TV commercials, but in this instance, they're not too far off off the track.

PerfectMatch is one of the newer breed of dating sites, and it's more of a service than anything else.  There is no endless browsing over countless member profiles, no need to send heaven-only-knows how many email messages, and you're spared the ego bruising that can occur when no one answers your email.

So what DO you do?  Well, it's remarkably simple, a very welcome change from some of the grilling interogation forms you may have experienced on other dating sites.  There is a simple personality analysis, based on your completion of a couple of pages of really easy questions.  Stuff like "Do you like cats more than dogs" or "What is the fastest you have ever driven your car" comprise most of the questions.  It's all very non-invasive, very easy to handle.

After that, Perfect Match just takes over, and starts sorting through all kinds of data, looking for members with maximum compatibility for you. As the system locates potential matches for you, it send emails messages to both people, opening channels of communication.

From then on out, it's up to you.  You decide whom you care to comminicate with further, or if you wish to meet in person. Your privacy is protected at all times, and none of the people involved know any personal information about you that you have not shared with them.  This helps eliminate awkward situations and unneccesary complications.
