Personality profile

Jun 10, 2005 22:41

I took a personality profile at Eharmony. It spit out a list of traits that were supposed to define me. They sound about right.

I was particularly amused by the number of times they used the word "logic" in the How Others Should Communicate With You section.

Use a logical and unemotional approach.

Present ideas logically--be efficient.

Clearly you and I should be dating. :p

If only Eharmony had a "woman for woman" section. Unfortunately, they don't.

It was never meant to be!

You know, when i did that....it told me that no one else on the site matched me and that eharmony did not work for everyone, and i was one of the few that it would not work for.

boy did I feel special after that!

You and me both, brotha! Are there really that few single automatons out there?

Just took the test [and it was DAMNABLY long] and it said the same thing for me too!

Funny, that.

and we're all on Kate's LJ....hmmmm

what does that say about us?

maybe eharmony should have a special action for us, where instead of saying you are a freak that no one will date, will just automatically add you to kates journal.

They made me sound like a robot. A heavily armored robot. Awesome.

There's still time to register to compete in Mayhem in Merrimack! Pits open in one hour!

I have an account there too, but the damn thing is like filling out a requisition order for a toilet seat for the US Government or something.

Now what you filled out is that the ABOUT ME section?
Because let me tell you my favorite part is the CAN'T STAND section.
Unfortunately Eharmony only allows you to select 10 attributes that you Can't Stand.

The ironic part is that they have attributes such as JUDGEMENTAL, RACIST, I guess they couldn't put down prejudice, because that's what Eharmony is when it comes to things like sexual orientation. =P

There's always so many things people hate! I wish it was the other way around; if only people - including me - didn't dislike things so much. We can always try. :)

Re: Eharmony Personality Profile... ex_jdub June 11 2005, 19:11:57 UTC

There are many dislikes that I have, but I do have a quite number of likes as well. I think for the most part people have more desires and wants than dislikes, but the dislikes always seem to attract so much more of our attention.

I guess its good that they limit the dislikes to a certain extent, because personally I believe that's the reason I'm so damn picky about who I will call "gf"

If there was a test which defined your form as a robot (what equipmentary, how heavily armored or what kind of a cool voice you had) I would definitely do it!
