Ex-Seeking Dating Apps

The Match.com Dating Website Will Find You Someone Who Resembles Your Ex

— July 4, 2014 — Lifestyle
If you're having trouble getting over a past lover, dating website Match.com recently teamed up with another matchmaking website called Three Day Rule to offer those seeking love the chance to be paired up with someone who looks a lot like their ex.

Using facial recognition software, Match.com now has the ability to offer its dating clients the chance to find someone who looks just like their ex if they seem to be having trouble getting a certain someone's face out of their mind. While finding someone who is different -- and hopefully more suited to you -- is probably the better option, if you're willing to fork out $5,000 and a picture of your ex Match.com will use its facial recognition software to pair you up with an individual who's a spitting image of your ex-lover.
Trend Themes
1. Facial Recognition Dating - The rise of facial recognition technology in dating apps provides opportunities for personalized matchmaking based on physical resemblance.
2. Emotional Recovery Services - The integration of emotional recovery services within dating platforms caters to individuals seeking support in moving on from past relationships.
3. Personalized Matchmaking - The demand for customized matchmaking experiences, such as finding a partner who resembles an ex, reveals a growing desire for tailored dating services.
Industry Implications
1. Dating Apps - Dating apps can use facial recognition technology to offer personalized matchmaking and emotional recovery services for users navigating post-breakup experiences.
2. Technology - The widespread use of facial recognition technology in dating apps highlights the potential for disruptive innovation in the field of personalized matchmaking and emotional support services.
3. Counseling and Relationships - The integration of emotional recovery services within dating platforms presents fresh opportunities for the counseling and relationships industry to provide tailored support for individuals going through breakups.
