Why was eHarmony founded?
One of eHarmony’s goals is to help create compatible partnerships that have a strong likelihood of resulting in happier and more successful relationships. In 1997, eHarmony’s founder Dr. Neil Clark Warren began collaboration with Dr. Galen Buckwalter, then a research professor at the University of Southern California, to identify the characteristics between spouses that are consistently associated with the most successful relationships. This research became the basis for the patented eHarmony Compatibility Matching System® that takes into account the key dimensions that help predict relationship compatibility and increase the potential for long-term success.
