Hello from Denmark

Hi folks,

I'm a 40-year old web developer from Denmark.

I suppose I should say that I'm an INTp since this is the forum for that sort of thing ;-)

I learned only yesterday that there is such a thing as Socionics, and by now, I know superficially what I've read in a few Wikipedia articles - the high-level concepts and some very basic terminology.

I come to this forum hoping to find a collaborator for a project.

I went through divorce about two years ago, and recently started using online dating sites for the first time in my life. I find these dating web-sites to be, without exception, horrible - I can put up with fake profiles etc., but not only are these sites apalling from a technical point of view, they're also unreasonably priced, and the whole business strategy of these sites is deeply morally offensive to me.

So I want to develop a dating site. I'm going to make it better than any of these paid sites - and it's going to be free. Why? Because I can. Because somebody needs to do it. Because it'll give me great personal satisfaction to put these sleazy sites out of business. Because I'm a romantic, and it would please me to help other people (and who knows, maybe someday myself) to find healthy, loving, lasting relationships.

You can tell me if that jives with my personality type ;-)

Anyhow, if this is an acceptable forum for such a thing, I will post more information about the project. For now, I will just say, I'm hoping to find out how a personality test can be used to implement either a kind of profile matching (and search) that goes beyond "we both like to travel and drink red wine" - or at least maybe some kind of "dating advisor" that can tell you something, in general, about the potential partner you're approaching, based on general knowledge about two personality types in a relationship.

At age 40, I can't reasonably go back and take a degree in psychology - just as, I'm sure, someone with adequate experience in this field can't go back and learn software development.

Cheers,
Rasmus
