eDarling, as a copycat of eHarmony for several European and Asiatic countries, and partially owned by eHarmony Inc., launches the NEW “WhatIf” feature.
In previous posts I had written about the newest “WhatIf“ feature from eHarmony.
Now eDarling launches the same called “Descubra otros perfiles” (Discover other profiles) in eDarling Spain.
“With “Discover other profiles” (WhatIf in eHarmony) you can see up to 20 daily profiles compatible with you according to our Scientific Compatibility Test.

You decide if it’s so important for you that your suggested partner is only a little higher, lower, older, younger, etc.”

eHarmony Brazil was launched last August 2010, 2 years ago; but can not take off. Now offering a “free” communication weekend; it is not really free because it does not include eHarmony mail.
Summary
The general conclusion I have arrived at after actively seeking a serious partner for 5+ years, is that paying to meet someone, either via online dating or in real life, is a poor choice.

Well, maybe. It depends. On a lot.
I have to admit a personal prejudice towards Match.com. After all, Match is where I met my husband Drew, way back in 1998. Match was the first computer/Internet dating site, starting up in 1995. Match has successfully built a brand and service to singles that really can’t be matched. There are other big dating sites, some expensive like eHarmony, some even free like PlentyofFish.com, but Match has held the center for a clean, stylish, appealing site for normal folks, middle of the road of all ages.
