| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 3:19:40 PM | A nice relationship assessment...... Some questions were hard to answer, because I haven't been in a relationship in awhile, so....I needed to think on those questions...... I liked the test, I felt it to be quite close to who I am. Also, the test results, gives some helps.... which is nice.. Thanks POF. | |

The perferred method of expression has been updated slightly. To make it more clear, as people were getting hung up on some of the wording.
Thanks for this test, Admin. For the most part, it is excellent! It looks like it may have cost you quite a bit to create.
But some of the results are still wrong. If you changed the wording of the output, then it is still wrong. If you changed the wording in the test itself, then we need the opportunity to take the test over to get the correct results. I can't figure out if this is possible.
I must emphatically state that I detest receiving gifts as signs of affection, and I am not confused about that. Other than that, I would like to keep the results in my profile. | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 5:43:13 PM | | It was an interesting test. I feel if honesty was entered, it comes up pretty close. How do I get to see it on my profile so that I could choose whether or not I want it posted? | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 7:10:07 PM | Maybe the heading could have been a bit different though. Instead of Not at all like me = Never and so on.
Overall, I found the test interesting, read it carefully before answering. Some of the feedback I can learn from and take into consideration.
I don't have a problem showing this on my profile. Got anymore tests?

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 7:20:54 PM | | ok, ive done it twice and twice it has said that I omitted some questions. When I pushed BACK, it came back to where I couldn't correct. I am not doing it a third time. | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 7:54:02 PM | Excellent test, but, unfortuately not as accurate as is percieved. As w so many tests there are some questions that are not totally conscise in the wording and not totally accurate because of the lack of communication of how to express these questions, ; and,,,, not least, many questions are ambiguous, in content, and ambivalent in answering. However i found that overall, the questions and the assessement were A OK,,,,,, Great job Markus,, youre the main man! :) M if youd need my input on these tests and questions it is possible to find a way to add to the abstract and make it more factual ( but it will have to be more detailed,,,,,,, Im here, if you need input, no im not any Einstien,,,,,,, Im just a human being who has had the great luck of working w the public, and mostly Know myself,,,,, best to you! I wish to thank you for you efforts, time and energy. that is soooooo Important as well! i guess it reflets the test,, lol, and once again, thank you! :) M Let it be known that You are Appreciated. ! | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 9:22:47 PM | Hey yeah I found some of the questions kind of tricky or confusing, wasn't sure about what to answer, is there some way you can take the test again? Lol even had to break out the old dictionary and look up EMULATE, so yeah how do you retake the test?
And that question about partner going out socially, well I wasn't sure what to answer cause I like to party too. I don't wanna miss out on fun or making new friends. So yeah that was confusing too.
So can we redo the test?
Oh yeah and how are we suppossed to know what our future is gonna be if we are screwed with certain doctors who couldn't give a rat's ass if you can walk or not when you are having killercramps or won't even remove a bunion so you can walk normally? Lol yeah and who leave behind adhesions after surgery-duh yeah adhesions cause pain duh. And then another doctor sticks a cortisone needle right in the adhesion, cause I guess the other doc didn't bother to tell him about the adhesion (quite the surgeon leaving adhesions behind lol).......so yeah all you are is some kind of experiment, so yeah how are people with chronic probs suppossed to know their future or be optmistic when they are getting nowhere? LMFAO | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 9:33:35 PM | | I think it would be great if there was some sort of mixed match between compatibility and needs assessments where he is like this and she is like that posted side by side. | |
|
| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 10:31:41 PM | I think th etest is fascinating. I had never thought about how different relationships can be from one another. I am not sure why but it is all accurate on me till it came to the part about gifts and implied that I see them as evidence of caring. I do but I see word, gestures and actions as way more significant. Either I screwed it up or the test misreads.
I also find that if I see a male profile with the assessment available, clicking on it gives me my own and not his. I think it is broken. | |
|
| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 10:35:11 PM | | PS Can't we get a search/match on this. I think that if these areas match, we have a much better shot at connecting. At least we narrow the field to people who want the same things from a partner. | |
|
| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 11:27:34 PM | I think that this 100 questionairre is tedious, and it probably would make many rush through it. I was a little reserved in answering it. I did answer truthfully, but i think some of the questions are in the eye of the beholder. I believed most of the answers, but there should be an option of not answering one or two questions the tops. Don't take this wrong, but if i were involved with someone in the permanent stage, i would like to know what people he works with. It does NOT make me paranoid, but it would make me concerned of what type of persons try to entice, or make his life much more irritable, hence reflection on his behavior towards me. I know that there are "pros and cons" to all that matter to one or another. (please take this feedback with a grain of sugar) I would like someone who is honest as i was in answering this.
I would prefer the sexual answers to be posted...can we do that by request?  | |
|
| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 11:52:37 PM | Why do we need tests to find out what we need from a significant other? Are people that stupid that they don't know their own minds and hearts?
Also, I take offense for not having an option to put a "don't know" or a value in the very middle of the spectrum as an answer, because sometimes it can vary on a day-to-day basis.
(And spare me the comments about my statement being hypocritical. The two paragraphs are in different contexts.) | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/7/2007 11:56:15 PM | I agree with princess leigh, something is definitely wrong with the last part of the test evaluation, it came out totally opposite to what we answer... I am a touchy/feely, hugs and PDA type,and the results said I was not... Kind of odd when my answers stated I was..You probably need to look into this test and fine tune the bugs it still has...And in some instances, it overanalyzes results. We all have reasons for the way we *are* what we are, no need to analyze it to silliness.
Anyway, sure hope you fix the glitches.....

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/8/2007 2:46:43 AM | I want to say thank you to everyone who has posted their feedback as to the accuracy of the test. Based on your results, I'll be skipping it rather than having inaccuracies possibly turn away someone who might otherwise be interested.
There is a woman whose profile I found very appealing. After reading her assessment I found myself even more interested. Based on all I've read here I intend to ask her how accurate she felt it was. I guess if you can add some open communication around it it's still useful, even if not entirely accurate, as a catalyst for discussing some things that might otherwise be put off until much later if discussed at all.
I have a couple of questions, though:
1) Do you feel having those results available is like handing someone a manual on how to manipulate you... on how to *appear* to be a good match?
2) Would you consider encouraging someone you're starting a relationship with to review the results, or maybe do it together, to educate them on how to be the best possible man/woman for you? | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/8/2007 3:34:10 AM | I took this test knowing full well I’d not allow it to be viewed by others but kept an open mind until the results were available I found it unusual the "Food for Thought!" comments added at the end of some sections. It doesn’t appear on all aspects but if it’s included in the report viewable by others it could sent a very incorrect impression of the person about that particular aspect.
Included are “Issues you seem to Over-value” and “Issues you seem to Under-value” followed by POSSIBLE reasons for the response. Listed are the positive and negative “reasons” which are contradictory to one another. If we’re to use this sort of thing effectively how does having two explanations for one aspect of our needs become helpful? Leaving this open to another’s interpretation about us doesn’t seem to be a good idea
I’m sure the limited number of questions in this test contribute to this but it seems more confusing than beneficial if it were used as a basis in deciding whether to meet someone or not. Of course like anything else used to weed out someone this might be another tool to help if someone needs such a thing. Horoscopes, religion, physical characteristics numerous other things are already used for that but perhaps more are needed too?
It’s great POF tries to improve the experience here by such new features but I doubt in the end this will help anyone avoid or attract someone else that otherwise would have sneaked past their own filters.
Above me is a post by Mr DareYou2 which is a very good point as well------a possible thing used for discussing sometime a bit later into a relationship. His thoughts on this test are very good! | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/8/2007 7:14:53 AM | Well, I bit the bullet and did the test. I enjoyed reading the results as it gave me a little bit of insight into aspects of a relationship I hadn't thought of before. I thought it was mostly right on except in one area. This may be because I answered one of the questions wrong as I noticed if you didn't read the questions carefully, you might answer the complete opposit by mistake. Still having said that, I don't think you should be able to take the test over again as that might effect the results even more in the end.
All in all a great eye opener...thanks POF! I think it will be helpful to see any potential matches results on this. Expectations play a huge part in whether a couple will stay together and if you can see what they are before you even start out, you stand a better chance of finding someone who wants, needs and expects the same things as you do. | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/8/2007 10:44:46 AM | Hello All, I have taken the fist big test. A little too long and repetitive I think. I see, you have revised the test, Great Idea. All in all, I have been watching the dating shows on "Channel 4" on Monday nights and it is a Blast to watch the 20's virisus the 40's all trying to gain the heart of a professional Tennis Player. And, then even better there is a show where the Professional Football Player from Buffalo NY had choosen 1 young lady to date out of 40 Women and then he was set up on another date that was CHOOSEN SCIENTIFICALLY through TESTING and this Woman was CHOOSEN OUT OF 40,000 Women and SHE WAS TO BE HIS BEST MATCH....IT was a real BLAST to see WHO he Choose and he choose the Woman from the Chemistry/ Science testing...What a fun example to see. He said, there must be something to all of this...And, this makes me OPTOMISTIC to trust in the testing and perhaps we will find success here at Fish through there testing...Good Luck Everyone...Linda  | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/8/2007 11:51:15 AM | This test was interesting . But You really need to think over the questions thouroughly. All though most of the test has me down to a T,it is wrong in the sexuality section, on of all things casual sex.LOL.... Maybe I can do the test over & get that right. I appreciate the feedback . I think it can be helpful, to many in sorting out relationship flaws, in ourselves. I do wonder will Plentyoffish be recomending the relationship coach next to the waters??????? Ill keep my assessment private for now till I get my answers...........
Its happy fishing to all  | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/8/2007 3:59:50 PM | I took the test and it was so damn accurate. I think however I made a mistake when answering certain questions. It says I don't do well with Public Displays of Affection and that is so not true. As a matter of fact I love them. Everything else was so accurate which leads me to believe that I accidentally answered something wrong.
Wonder if I could take the test over? | |
|
| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/8/2007 4:46:24 PM | How do you RE-TAKE the test????? I had a friend take the test for me... I wanted to re-take the test to see if the opinions of myself vs. the opinions of my girlfriend were in sync. I HAVE NOT taken the test - only she did (and it seems a large % is accurate).
THANKS FOR THE ANSWER! | |
