New Dating Service for LDS Singles
More articles on this topic: Mormonism/Mormon ChurchSeveral dating services offer personality tests to help single people find a perfect match. But a brand new service for LDS singles claims it offers even more, and thousands of people have already signed up.
In more than 30 years of counseling families, Dr. A. Lynn Scoresby says he has felt the heart-ache some people feel when they are unable to find a companion.
A. Lynn Scoresby, Ph.D., Family Psychologist, LDSPromise.com: “I’ve watched them go out into the dating scene. It doesn’t work out. They lose confidence in themselves. They develop lack of confidence and resentment in the other gender, and it’s frustrating, kind of a frustrating and unhappy experience.”
Dr. Scoresby developed LDSPromise.com, a website service that helps match single members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and then helps them improve their skills at communication and dating so they can be more successful at finding and keeping that companion.
24-year old Amy Anderson of Provo says she learned a lot about herself by taking the survey.
Amy Anderson, Member, LDSPromise.com: “I didn’t understand how unique this test, this program was until I took the test.”
That test or survey consists of nearly 500 questions, some which analyze who you are, others aimed at what kind of partner you are seeking.
Amy Anderson, Member: “This test helps you know what you want.”
Dr. Scoresby says it can also identify if a person has dishonest intentions or is psychologically unhealthy. The results show strengths and weaknesses in areas like love and commitment, life management, whether a person is warm, compassionate, open with their emotions, their, social and communication skills. Then members get reading assignments so they learn and improve.
A. Lynn Scoresby: “They learn about right kinds of dating strategies. How to get out of old habits and what to do to be more skillful.”
Once a match is made, clients can choose to get to know each other face to face or on line, but still in a specific slow and safe progression. And whether or not it ends in marriage, LDS Promise hopes to improve the chance for a meaningful relationship.
Taking the test at LDSPromise.com is free, but there is a monthly charge of 25-dollars to be matched with others. The service is just days old, so there is no data on how well it successfully matches couples.
