to anybody. We're told to choose our friends carefully, so why not be a little more choosy about our dating community? The solution is simple: by implementing an introduction-based dating network, Todayter ensures your online time will be much more productive and hassle free; a place where you meet the people you want to meet. No spammers, scammers or Internet trolls. The objective is not to eliminate the old paradigm, but rather to improve upon it. People donâ€:tm:t want their contact information distributed amongst the entire Internet. Todayter is a dating network that strangers canâ€:tm:t see, search, or subvert. This prevents non-members from viewing profiles or a list of our current members.

The wonder of love should be kept wide open, but that doesnâ€:tm:t mean your dating network has to be.

THE DATING GAME

We know that dating can often feel like a big torturous game. Todayter lets you be the ultimate player. In an effort to transcend some of the negative stigma linked to online dating, we reward all efforts made on Todayter. We award points based on your dating skills, hard work, and dedication. This opens the gates to another part of someone's personality, reflected in the badges theyâ€:tm:ve earned for their activity, adding unique value to a profile.

Todayter also recognizes that personalities are too vast and complicated to organize and calculate them through the use of lengthy formulas and surveys. A dating site's idea of a "perfect match" is not always the "perfect match". By implementing a dating feedback system, members will be able to see how they stack up against the rest. We let people rate their dates, so you don't just have to take their word for it. Datability Feedback isn't based on somebody's idea of compatibility, but focuses on human behavior and the way people act socially, holding people accountable for their actions as well as their words. It takes some of the guesswork out of dating.

THE BIOCHEMISTRY OF LOVE

Common interests are important, but on most dating sites everything you learn about someone is based entirely on what the person decides to reveal. Weâ€:tm:ve tried to design a profile that will allow you to tell people something about yourself while avoiding the superficial questions that litter other popular dating sites. The true purpose of Todayter is to bring people together. Todayter promotes the face-to-face aspect of dating, which is going on actual dates. Because that's when the true connection is made. That's when you know where things are going, and where they aren't. It's a chemical fact.

There are three chemicals which complete the trifecta of the feeling we call love: Dopamine, Norepinephrine, and Oxytocin. In relationships, these chemicals create, motivate and sustain us all. But in order to experience them, we need physical contact. We need to see, hear, and smell. The culture of love is becoming too introverted, too virtual. Todayter's goal is to act as a catalyst for real-life love connections, encouraging people to meet up and rewarding them for it. Only then will we trigger the biological system that fuels romantic connections and allow the chemicals of love to surge into action.
