If, however, you can get by with a match from the
general population a
general dating website is preferable because they tend to
attract the most people, giving you a numbers advantage.
In
general, I would suggest not taking the matching programs too seriously on any
dating website, because these algorithms are not supported by scientific evidence.5 A practical take - home message is that the match percentage you see with potential partners probably doesn't mean all that much — simply the perception that people are similar is enough to make you feel
attracted, regardless of actual similarity.
