| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/8/2007 7:11:04 PM | I would like the needs assessment taken off my profile, but do not know how. As well I completed the compatability assessment and do not want that on my profile either. Thank you, Christina71 | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/9/2007 12:17:59 AM | Well I have taken the test and it is 90% accurate, quite unnerving. Looking back at my previous relationships, I think that I should have followed it myself lol. Maybe explains why they went horribly wrong.  | |

Predictor if those results could be filtered with a few basic filters such as distance or physical attributes, age range, or % match! Allowing the results to be further washed would make them much more useful!!!!
Just a thought ..... Thanks for the consideration! | |

Also- each time something was posted "Under-valued", the first sentence was the same. I'm not a fan of the redundancy.
Thanks! | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/9/2007 8:35:30 AM | Hello Everybody,
I took the compatibility test a while back. Now this past weekend I took the needs assessment and also the Jung personality type indicator test. It's tedious to take these tests but one takes them in the hope they will lead one to a happy match. I'd taken variations of the Jungian type indicator in the past. They always show me to be INFP.
As far as the compatibility test goes it seems the people I'm compatible with in the upper 80 and 90 percentile range have little in common with me in other areas. No one has attempted a "first contact" with me from my "compatible list" though I do contact with women who are in the 90% or upper 80% range unless they are smokers which is a turn-off for me as far as physical intimacy goes.
It will be interesting to see what kinds of matches these other tests bring up. I am not impressed with the results of the compatibility test itself thus far. It would be interesting to know how others feel about the results of these tests.
I am impressed and grateful that POF has made this improvement to the site. The tests are obviouly quite professional and well done. I hope they help us all to find happy and satisfying love relationships.

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/9/2007 9:24:26 AM | I took the test too and found it very interesting however...
What's the use of taking these tests when it's always the same men for matches, and of those, the ones I have met are not even close to what they say they are. That's the ones that actually bother to respond to a message, the rest are above taking the time to answer a hello.
Now before you jump all over me, I'm sure and know for a fact that the same thing happens with women as well.  | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/9/2007 9:43:13 AM | | These tests make assumptions that not only can a person be qualified as having some sort of personality, that they would be most happy with someone of a like personality. Both assumptions are not necessarily true. There is LOTS of error with tests like this. You're lucky to have 30-40% matching accuracy. You're better off not relying on the test results; rather use them as some sort of amusement, as they are very likely to be quite faulty not only in how they assess you but in how they assess your matches. | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/9/2007 10:03:18 AM | I took my time on this test, really reading the questions before answering. Sometimes we read too fast and there were a few I changed my responses to after re-reading the questions. I found it to be a pretty accurate description of me and don't have a problem having it on my profile. I'd like a person who might possibly be interested in me to know as much as possible before contacting me.
I do agree with P1nk though, the same matches keep coming up and the ones that I've responded to, you'd think I was an alien from some other planet by their reactions... I've met a few in person who look NOTHING like the photos they have posted. Mine aren't 10 years old...

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/9/2007 10:26:47 AM | Issues you seem to Over-value
I do not like my partner going out socially with friends without me. Possible reasons you responded this way include negative motivations and positive motivations ....
NO NO NO I didn't say that...back back back... I must have pressed the wrong one...back back back... I like him to go out on his own....back back back... please don't put that on my profile I hate people that don't want to go on their own..... back back back.... Oh come on let me go back and change that..................... | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/9/2007 10:30:39 AM | I would really like to have the option to re-take the test.
Sometimes you choose a wrong answer.
Sometimes you choose something where you are RIGHT on the fence and are curious what it would be like if you picked something on the other side of the fence.
Sometimes you want to goof around and pick the exact opposite of what you are.
Sometimes you change your mind.
POF ... please consider allowing for people to retake their tests. | |

| Plentyoffish Relationship Assessment. Posted: 7/9/2007 11:30:42 AM | I, too, was unclear on a few of the questions, that became evident once I read the analysis. How is one to use this tool correctly tho'; maybe users should be given some ideas. For instance, I think I read somewhere that you shouldn't pair up with someone who has identical needs, because if you are looking to have these unmet needs fulfilled, that person is also deficient in those areas and won't be able to meet your needs. There should be some examples of useful pairings which would be complementary, otherwise many people could be misusing this additional information. What do you think? Any pyschologists/relationship experts out there? | |
