Is Compatibility the Key to Finding Love?

Helen Fisher author of “Why Him? Why Her?” devised a compatibility test which has been tried and tested by thousands if not millions for dating site(s). Fisher is a Biological Anthropologist and has identified 4 broad personality styles associated with different chemical systems in the brain. She calls the 4 broad personality types as the Explorer, the Builder, the Negotiator and the Director.

The Explorer – risk-taker and impulsive
The explorer wants somebody who goes adventuring with them. There are a lot of ways to explore, but they want someone to share it with.

The Builder – cautious and loyal
The builder is looking for help mates’, somebody who can help them build their social network with them, help them build a home and family.

The Negotiator – imaginative and compassionate
The negotiator wants the soul mate: they want to know how you feel, they want to know intricacies of what they meant by what you said; they want their partners to ask them how they’re doing.

The Director – analytical and decisive
The director wants a mind mate, someone they can share ideas with.

Fisher explains that ‘I found explorers primarily go for explorers, dramatically more than any type, builders go for builders but the director goes for the negotiator and the negotiator goes for the director. It doesn’t matter whether you’re male or female.’

She acknowledges other factors play a role too like the same socio-economic background, same level of intelligence and looks, same religious values etc. Fisher explores each personality type in detail, showing you how to identify your own type as well as explaining why some types match up well, while others can prove problematic.

Why don’t you take the test at http://www.chemistry.com/whyhimwhyher/
Identify your own type and the type you’re attracted to, to find the one!

The test revealed my personality as being an Explorer, Director & Builder. So I am looking for a personality profile of someone who is an Explorer, Negotiator & Builder. So please get in touch with your results and debate whether it’s a true reflection of your personality. Good luck

On a personal note here is some Inspiration for each personality type:

The Explorer
Let us not follow where the path my lead.
Let us go instead where there is no path,
And leave a trail. Japanese Proverb

The Builder
Be faithful to that which exists now here but in yourself -
And thus make yourself indispensable. Andre Gide

The Negotiator
I remember everything simultaneously;
Like the distant beam of a distant lighthouse,
I carry the universe before me
Like an easy burden in an outstretched palm,
And in the depths, mysteriously growing, is the seed
Of what is to come. Anna Akhmatova

The Director
Only he who keeps his eyes fixed on the far horizon
will find his right road. Dag Hammar SK Jo

Are you Dating Savvy?

I am going to reveal the ins and outs of helping single professionals spice up their dating lives.

What typically gets between singles and a rewarding dating life?
I’d say the top three challenges are making the time, knowing where to find like-minded people, and protecting your personal privacy. For most people, the problem is very rarely getting a date. The problem is actually connecting with someone interesting who you’re attracted to, and who you can really have fun with.
The bar scene isn’t typically a viable option, and when it comes to online dating, there’s not enough security or personal privacy. No-one wants to be Googled or continuously emailed by people they have no interest in dating.

Why people trust me with their personal lives?
When people call me to inquire about an event or buy a ticket, it’s usually because they’ve made a decision to make a proactive change in their personal lives.

What are the most common dating mistakes you see?
Number one is putting too much pressure on your self. This happens a lot with people who don’t have a lot of connections to other singles. They meet someone and think, “I’ve got to make this work out. It could be six months before I find someone else even remotely interesting.”
The other mistake people make is repeatedly dating the same type of person and expecting different results. I always encourage my clients to open themselves up to connecting with people who have similar core values but different professions, backgrounds and interests. There is always a wide variety of interesting people to meet.

The biggest reason people use a service like mine?
It’s definitely the time factor. Not in the sense that our clients don’t have time to meet people. They do. It’s just that the last thing they want to do is waste valuable personal time making a connection with someone who isn’t exactly what he or she made themselves out to be. This way they get to see a lot of people in one night and make it easy to meet people well worth spending time with.

On a personal note:
You’re strategic and savvy in everything you do; its time to apply the same wisdom to the most important search of your life. Allow yourself to keep attending events and finding the love of your life in a strictly confidential and focused manner – eliminating the pain points involved with random, un-vetted, and disastrous blind dating.
