  Men Are From Mars, Women Are on PerfectMatch.com

  Online 'Relationship' Site PerfectMatch.com Sees Female Membership Exceed
            60% Vs. Just 35% for Other Traditional 'Dating' Sites

    SEATTLE, Aug. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Women are flocking to online relationship
site PerfectMatch.com.  Nearly 65% of PerfectMatch.com's one million members
are women, which sit in stark contrast to the 30-35% female membership found
at more traditional online dating sites.
    PerfectMatch.com, the fastest growing online relationship destination, has
attracted nearly double the number of women found on other online dating sites
-- largely because of its unique set of relationship tools, encouraging and
promoting self-identity, inner-confidence and personal growth.  In addition,
thanks to Duet(TM), PerfectMatch.com's Total Compatibility System, women now
have the opportunity to not only discover themselves, but also establish
relationships with "pre-qualified" and commitment-oriented men.
    PerfectMatch.com's large female membership dramatically illustrates how
the online relationship market is evolving.  The company's founders helped
create the online dating market nearly a decade ago with sites such as
kiss.com and udate.com, which attracted millions of users, a large majority of
these being men.  With PerfectMatch.com taking the lead, the online
relationship industry has come full circle in its ability to attract and
retain women at a rate similar to or in this instance, greater than men.
    "Women are getting savvier when it comes to developing relationships via
online destinations," said Dr. Pepper Schwartz, Ph.D. and co-creator of Duet.
"In my experience, many women try online dating, but soon realize that
successful relationships begin with understanding yourself.  This makes
PerfectMatch.com extremely attractive and beneficial to women, who now find
self-identity, inner confidence, and ultimately, the opportunity and
reassurance of establishing more quality and qualified relationships with
men."

    Duet(TM)-- PerfectMatch.com's Total Compatibility System

    PerfectMatch.com has partnered with Dr. Pepper Schwartz, Ph.D., the
nation's leading relationship expert, to scientifically co-create Duet. The
first step in Duet's Total Compatibility System thoroughly explains
personality type with its clinical roots stemming from a Myers-Briggs Type
Indicator(R). Only after the person discovers self-identity will Duet's unique
matching system work to narrow people's options and successfully match
compatible mates. In turn, users experience a higher rate of compatibility and
honesty, which is appealing and important to both sexes.
    "Women want to increase their chances of finding their ideal mate and love
on the first attempt rather than wasting time weeding through men who are only
interested in short-term dating," added Dr. Schwartz.  "Furthermore, women
understand that men who invest the time to complete Duet are more serious
about committing to a long-term relationship.  This works for both men and
women, as men who spend time and effort with Duet will likely be more in
control of identifying what they're looking for in an ideal partner."

    PerfectMatch.com Enters Integrated Partnership

    Another reason for this surge in female membership is PerfectMatch.com's
unique partnership with LIFETIME TV.  The two brands have recently teamed to
build and promote long-term relationships among women through exclusive
programming and online content. Both companies share a common goal to provide
personal growth and well-being of women in healthy relationships.
    "Relationship sites backed by psychological expertise and credible
partners are attracting a great deal of attention from both women and men,"
said Duane Dahl, founder and CEO, PerfectMatch.com.  "Our experience tells us
that women are always a little ahead of the curve when it comes to investing
time and energy in building relationships.  We're pleased to win the trust and
attract a strong union of women who are committed to self-awareness and growth
that leads to long, healthy and mutually beneficial relationships.  We've
accepted the challenge of finding more quality men ... men who are prepared to
learn more about themselves, and ultimately meet more well-balanced and self-
assured women.  Ultimately, this will enable them to enjoy life's sweetest
reward, true love."
