One of the newest trends in online dating is what is sometimes referred to as personality dating. The idea behind this type of dating site is simple, after you fill out an extensive personality assessment you will be matched based on the answers you provided when you filled out your assessment. 

The premise is that matching two people based on compatibility will have a much better chance of making a great long term relationship. There are many people who will swear by this method, others may not be convinced. It really just depends on whether or not you were able to find someone special for you. 

In some cases, people feel like they didn't do a good job on this personality dating "test" and would like a do over. According to my research, this is actually possible. It will require some leg work on your part, but it isn't impossible. For one thing you will need to call the customer service department, which is not something they readily advertise so it may take some hunting to find the number. 

Now, be warned, all my research has lead me to believe that this process will not be easy. For one thing you have to find the number which as I said above, can be a challenge in and of itself. Next you should call either very early or late at night. You will also need to be prepared, you may need to let the phone ring for a long time before anyone will answer. I read that some people have had to sit on the phone and let it ring for an hour!

When you do finally, get a customer service rep you will need to explain to them you want to retake the test. Persistence is key here because the first response you will get to your request will most likely be "no". It isn't their policy to allow people to retake the test but if you stay calm and persistent, and you threaten to close your account because you aren't finding the kinds of matches you wanted, they will almost always relent and allow you to retake the test.

If you happen to get a particularly uncooperative customer service rep and they absolutely refuse to allow you to retake the test, you can always close your account and wait a few days and sign up with a different email address. My research said that many people opt for this option and it might just work well for you. 

I would say that the jury is still out on whether or not this type of online dating practice really is as effective as they say it is. I guess it depends on your personal results. It may work well for some and not so well for others. There seems to be a lot of weight on filling out your profile in just the right way. One "bad" answer may make the difference between finding someone special and just getting frustrated. 

I don't know if personality dating will work for you or not, but you may want to give it a shot. Finding someone who you share a deep connection with might be a great start to a beautiful relationship.
