May 16, 2012 According to some, you can determine your appropriate dating age range by only dating someone who is within a fifth of your own age. A fifth of a 20 year old’s age would be four years, for example, so they could date someone between 16 and 24 (four years older or younger). Based on this system, someone who’s 60 would have a 12 year margin.

Quick NavigationWebsite FeaturesMy Favorite Five Eharmony.ca Features Are:The PricingThe Ease of Using Eharmony.caPros & ConsThe Final WordThe compatibility test is the first feature you will encounter. I had to take this test prior to becoming a member. This is how you know you will find someone compatible with your most important requirements in a match.
All you have to do is open the Eharmony.ca app or go to their home page. You will need about 30 minutes to fill out the entire questionnaire. I recommend taking the time because this sets the basis for your ideal match.
The questionnaire asked me questions about my personality, sense of humor, lifestyle, beliefs and ambition. I did not find any of the questions invasive. Once you have taken your test and become a member, you can start reviewing all of your matches.
If you decide not to join at this point, you can still look at your matches once you have completed your test. You will not be able to make contact with any of your matches until you have become a member.
I recommend joining because even the matches that did not work out for me were very close to what I was looking for. As I stated earlier, I did find my ideal match. You have a lot more options once you have joined the site.
Once you are a member, you can look at all of the profiles that interest you and see all the photos. I am a little bit shy. This being said, I did not have any issues talking to my matches. Somehow, it was easier online.
If you do not find anyone of interest in your matches, you can search for the criteria you desire. This enables you to access a lot more of the members. The preferences feature is absolutely wonderful.
You can select the criteria for your potential matches. Eharmony.ca only sends members matching your criteria. You can choose from the member's distance from your home, their education and religious beliefs.
I really appreciated the 29 Dimensions Personality Assessment. There were 150 questions about what I like, what I dislike, my goals, hobbies and what I consider a dealbreaker. Eharmony.ca used these details to find excellent matches.
I set my match preferences to ensure the recommendations were right on target. The site uses an algorithm so I only saw member profiles I was compatible with. I used the filter for my city and the preferred age range of my matches.
The standard pricing is good. When I joined, I took advantage of a special offer. If you choose a membership when you first join you may be able to save some money with a promotional rate. The regular pricing is as follows:

You can find one that caters to your political party, favorite hobby, or even matches you by which flight you're on. Although why you would ever be an awkward first date while hurling through the sky in a metal bird is beyond me. But despite all the different options available, there are still some clear front-runners in the dating app department. Classics and standbys, Survey Monkey Intelligence has released data based off of last's month usage that shows just how far and away some app's popularity is.
Before we get into it, I definitely think that you shouldn't be signing up to something just because it's popular — there are so many different dating apps out there it's easy to find one that's right for you, but it's still really fascinating to see which ones people are flocking to. What's even more interesting, is that there is a definite age shift between apps. I sort of thought there would be an age difference between those who use apps versus those who date only in real life, but even with the tech-savy there's a big split between the different apps.

Here are the most popular dating apps and median age that uses them:
Let's break it down:
With over 7 million monthly users, Tinder was far and away the most popular app. In fact, none of the other apps reported on had even half the number of users as Tinder, so if you're just looking to work the numbers game Tinder is the way to go. The median age was 26 which... which makes me feel old, quite frankly.
OkCupid had over 2.5 million monthly users, which sounds like a lot, but like I said it's way, way less than Tinder. But, the median age was 32, so if you're hoping for a more mature crowd but still want a lot of people to chose from, it sounds like a good option.
If you're looking for an even more mature group, Match boasts over 2 million monthly users and also had the oldest median age of any of the apps — 45.
Bumble is probably the most popular app among my friends after Tinder, mostly because it's female-led. But with just over a million monthly users, it's a lot less popular than the options above. But then again, with a median age of 26, it may just be that it's more popular with the millennial crowd.
With almost 700,000 users, Coffee Meets Bagel may not be the most popular, but that doesn't really matter. One of their draws is that you only get one potential match a day, so the whole point is not to be overwhelmed by endless potential matches. And with only one match a day, it's going to take you a whole lot of time to get through all those users. The median age of users is 30, and, with it's uber selectivity, it seems like the choice for the young professional set.
With under half a million users, Hinge's big benefit is that it matches you with your Facebook friends' friends or third-degree connections, so there are fewer users on there but probably more people you're connected to in some way. Its Facebook-reliance probably explains why the median age is 27, and it's great if you want to debrief with a mutual friend before your date.
