A university lecturer in the US has revealed he believes his professional life gave him a unique advantage in his personal experiences on online dating sites.<\/p>\n
Paul Oyer of Stanford University started dating via the internet after 20 years off the market and soon realised his work as an economics professor was useful.<\/p>\n
Indeed, he suggested some of the theories he had been teaching in the classroom immediately helped him when it came to chatting to women.<\/p>\n
"After my first date, the thing that triggered in my mind is that this is all about markets. And in the intervening 20 years between when I first dated and now, I'd learned a lot about markets," Mr Oyer told SFGate.<\/p>\n
He has even released a book on the subject, entitled Everything I Ever Needed To Know About Economics I Learned From Online Dating.<\/p>\n
Statisticians and engineers are behind all dating sites, so it stands to reason they are the ones who might be best to operate on them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
