Balancing Love & Money Made Easier by Perfectmatch.com SEATTLE, April 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Mixing love and money is a challenging topic to navigate in the early stages of a blossoming relationship. Perfectmatch.com, a leading online dating and relationship service, today announced the release of its Love & Money Assessment. The seven-question assessment, developed with its chief relationship expert, Dr. Pepper Schwartz, is designed to evaluate financial compatibility and determines the ideal economic profile of a future mate by providing an accurate diagnostic about financial habits and values. "Many couples tend to skip over hard-to-discuss topics, like money, as they get to know each other. However, in times of economic turmoil, the issue of financial responsibility moves up on almost everyone's list of priorities, alongside topics such as the desire to have children and past relationships," said Duane Dahl, Chief Executive Officer of Perfectmatch. "With the current economic reality in mind, Perfectmatch has designed the Love & Money Assessment to facilitate self-understanding of financial aspirations and guide people toward the start of a real conversation." The assessment was designed to help recognize how important money is in your choice of a partner, but also shows users how to apply this information to search for perfect matches. As the national debt amounts to a staggering $11.1 trillion, people everywhere, especially singles, are becoming increasingly aware of the effect and repercussions that debts, financial mishap and opposing spending and saving habits may have on a long-term relationship. The tool was designed to help people learn about their own economic agendas and better determine the role it may play inside a relationship, as well as strike a balance between two of the most important elements in a lasting relationship - love and money. "The silver lining in this very dark economic cloud is it helps us refocus. It reminds us as important as money is, love really is the most compelling need in our lives," reminds Dr. Schwartz. "The Perfectmatch.com's Love & Money Assessment offers a way to evaluate your financial compatibility while learning more about yourself and your partner, in a non-threatening way. This is a crucial subject that should be addressed earlier rather than later in any relationship." This is why Perfectmatch integrated the Love & Money Assessment into its Duet Compatibility System. The free Perfectmatch.com Love & MoneyAssessment is available to consumers exclusively at http://www.perfectmatch.com.
