Searching for love

If your aim is to find a partner for marriage, then the right kind of online dating site – Parship, for example -- really can help you on your way to happiness. While some dating sites still focus on chat and fun, others, like Parship, cater for people who are seriously looking for a long-term partner. All reputable dating sites will require you to register and provide some basic information about yourself. At a later stage you can choose to subscribe to the full service, probably on a monthly basis.
The majority of dating sites base their matching purely on search criteria, such as age, location and personal interests. This often produces a long, and sometimes confusing list of profiles. It can be hard to know where to start, especially if you are looking for a serious relationship. The chances are that you will want to make an informed decision at the very first stage.
Matching by compatibility
A successful marriage – like any successful long-term relationship – is based on compatibility. And so is Parship’s service. Its unique compatibility test is the fruit of 30 years of academic research into what makes a relationship work. Along with your preferred search criteria, the test produces a personalised list of potential partners, especially for you. These are people whose profiles are compatible with yours, people who are likely to complement you and harmonise with you.
Since you are looking for a serious relationship, Parship also puts an emphasis on discretion and security in the way the service works: all member profiles are personally checked by our customer service agents, as are all photos. If you place a photo on your profile it remains completely private unless – or until – you choose to ‘release’ the picture on a one-to-one basis to someone of your choice.
Parship is all about finding someone really right for you. While many people on the service are looking for a long-term relationship rather than specifically for marriage, real commitment is still their intention. First of all, take some time to get to know some of your Parship recommended partners. If you get to the stage where marriage enters the discussion, it’s a very good sign.
