I recommended OkCupid to a girl, and she used the question-answer matching system. She found a guy, then married him!
Think about this, if a
#dating app matched people with the appropriate mate, quickly, they would NOT be required to go on hundreds of
#dates. But then the dating app would lose money.
You are right. The economic incentives are misaligned, similar to doctors treating a disease instead of curing it. But in this particular case, the couple found each other.
Their economic model is oriented toward impulse-purchase flings.
Customer satisfaction destroys the market.
I understand. But it would be hard to create a site that only takes money if the match works. Sociopathic couples could just claim the date failed.
