When You're Serious About Meeting Someone.
MatchMaker.com overview:
Launched in 1985 as a simple bulletin-board dating system, MatchMaker.com is now a thriving community of more than 8 million registered members, with 50,000 new sign-ups each week. As one of the oldest dating sites around, MatchMaker is also one of the most trusted and respected dating sites. When you join MatchMaker, you will be asked to complete a fairly extensive questionnaire, which can take you from a few minutes to an hour, depending on how much work you put into it. The questionnaire comprises a number of multiple choice questions with an additional 20 longer essay-type questions.
These essay questions are optional, but remember: the more work you put into your profile, the more interest you will get from other members, so it's advisable to spend some time on these questions - this is your opportunity to make a great first impression after all! You may update your profile at any time however, meaning that you needn't fill all the answers in upon joining.
