Science meets its love match

- OLIVIA SHYING

YOU WON’T have to rely on cupid’s arrow to find the love of your life.

Geelong love guru Sarah Host is instead using science and psychology to try and match lonely hearts together ahead of Valentine’s Day.

Organic Fusion’s Ms Host will run a singles social experiment on February 13.

If it works the matchmaker is hopeful a few participan­ts will have dates for Valentine’s Day.

Ms Host said singles would be asked a series of questions before the event so they could be linked up with their closest match.

On the night the singles meet their match and have an hour to ask and answer questions that could determine if the new couples are made for one another.

“They have time to mingle, have a drink and eat nibbles before spending one house asking and answering a series of 36 questions designed by psychologi­sts,” Ms Host said. “The questions they have chosen are very good at creating close connection­s between people.”

Ms Host said the event gave singles the chance to escape from the online dating world and meet up with a potential lover face-to-face.

“I try to give people opportunit­ies to meet single people offline and have those face-to-face conversati­ons and develop connection­s,” she said.

Ms Host urged love hopefuls to find out more about the experiment at organicfus­ions.com.au
