It wasn’t even that…she wanted him to fill it out before even talking on the phone with her. Woman wants to farm him for information likes she’s Facebook before committing to a simple conversation


Good point.

What's funny is I actually respect some of her questionnaire too. Like the TP one. And even the grammar one, though condescending as frick, I can appreciate it because that will weed out a lot of idiots.

So while I'm game for some of her questions in theory, the overall thing of it would just completely rub me the wrong way and piss me off. I think Roger nailed it when he said she's basically trying to systemize something that can't/shouldn't be.

I fully support her. This guy could have wasted time and money to realize it later on.

This question is over the top:


I think wanting a partner that knows how to use proper grammar is pretty reasonable. Don't get me wrong, making people take a test to go out on a date with you is kind of out there. These can easily be conversation topics on such dates to get to know people which is part of the fun of dating. But at least she has standards and a method to weed out people that don't meet those standards.

Zodiac sign

The fact that she even asked this question tells me that she's at least a little crazy and probably low I.Q.

That's something you figure out pretty quickly without questionnaires, and I guarantee you most are willing to accept that tradeoff for other considerations. The questionnaire is for simpletons.

Im not even mad at this, tbh. Dating can be hard. If you're trying to weed through people on dating apps. You're going to have a hard time, especially if you're looking for something serious, as 95% of people on there are mainly looking for sex.

That being said, her questions about the LGBT and the zodiac sign would have made me un-interested. I wouldn't proceed any further. Which again, I'm not even mad. I'd rather end it here before having to spend money on a date.

Good for her not wanting to date a heathen that puts the toilet paper on to unroll from underneath

Which is why its always nice to actually talk to the person you are going to date instead of sending questionnaires. That makes it harder.

Horny dudes are gonna lie, those things are worthless.

Is she attractive and has her life together? Sure I’d fill it out. Beats dead end conversations that go nowhere.

Same here. Dating is sort of like interviewing for a job…except you don’t get to look at a resume and can’t talk to their previous employers. You have to figure out the crazy before it’s revealed or deal with it if it shows up

It is not the questions themselves that are the issue, it is that she formularized it to take away all the quirks and charms of getting to know someone. It is unnatural

100 guys with 100 different personalities could fill this form out the same. She has removed the personality from the process of getting to know someone
Perhaps it does save time, but her method is off-putting and lacks personality itself. It is almost bureaucratic

Additionally it makes it seems like she believes her time is more valuable than yours

What’s funny is the guy in those messages was trying to get to know her via actually talking to her but she declined that in favor of a written questionnaire. Yet she claims he wasn’t willing to take the time to get to know her.

This is a smart girl, upwardly mobile, cute with a sense of humor and she's too good for this crowd. You can tell by the questions she asks.

But, no. I'm not going to a dating site and filling out surveys just to talk to you. That's a bear market already and you're a waste of time.

I agree, some of the questions were definitely valid (I liked those as well as the one with the couple walking by the road). But like you said, the whole thing was off putting, mainly because of her approach and her timing.

Giving her the benefit of the doubt, maybe she can make this work if she offers up the same information about herself, or allows him to pre-screen her in a similar way. But like you said, it’s why too systemized. Part of the adventure is discovery.

First thing I learned from doing the eHarmony survey was to stop answering questions unless it was a dealbreaker.

Imagine “What is your stance on abortion?” Having the same weight as “Do you drink coffee or tea?”
