Really not interested in having to put my sexual and relationship ideals up on facebook where friends and family can see them... Facebook is where I go to talk to people I do not want knowing a lot about my personal life.
Very good point. In addition, so many things cannot be represented digitally in dating/flirting. So much body language and unspoken signals go into reading of interest and intrigue between two people. Albeit my knowledge of dating sites are limited, it would seem being able to replicate unspoken communication is nearly impossible, especially when people are represented as images and text. Sorry for no citations, just a personal opinion based off of my history of reading a limited number of psych and body language books
This isn't how it works - it connects with Facebook so it can filter out your Facebook friends - the whole idea is that only new people who you don't know can see that you're single and looking to connect.
This app connects to my facebook to check my friends and stuff, then I tell this app the stuff I am into sexually and romantically, and then it connects me to others on facebook who have the same interests, I get that. But the simple fact is, well, keep my romantic life out of my social life.
If I want my romantic life and social life to intermix that will be my decision, not that of some webapp. There is a reason Dating Sites exist separated from Social Sites, and it is not because no one has thought of the idea before.
Personal Preference: Ne'er the twain shall meet.
Just to be clear, it is a good idea, but I personally would not trust that small a level of separation between social and romantic life. There may be a market in it, I am not a member of that demographic.
