Discussion 5

For this Discussion, you are to create a want ad for a romantic relationship or an online dating service profile.  Don’t worry, especially if you are currently in a relationship, this is for educational purposes only, and is not a true matchmaking activity.   The idea is to think about what you learned in this module about the important traits people look for in romantic relationships.  Creativity and appropriate humor are acceptable and encouraged, as long as you follow directions and address relevance to module concepts.

For your Discussion post / dating profile, you should start by describing your personal qualities, your interests, hobbies, likes and dislikes, then describe the qualities of those you would seek (if this were real.)   After completing your profile, discuss the relevance of the concepts you learned about in this module such as proximity, familiarity, attractiveness, matching hypothesis, attitudinal similarity, exchange processes, and shared activities in relationships.
