A very cheesy love song once said that while there are too many billion people in this planet, you’d still find your way to the one your destined to be with simply because you were born for each other. While that’s a hit recipe for a romance novel, it is very unlikely that Henry Cavill or Taylor Lautner will appear on your street and instantly fall in love with you.
Sorry but if you can still remember your social psychology, there’s actually one measurement of interpersonal attraction that dissolves your make-believe love story with your celebrity crush: PROXIMITY.
So if your in the market, there are greater chances that you’ll get involved with someone near your circle like your officemate or neighbor or anyone that is within your social radar; not someone who breathes a thousand miles away.
If the more realistic scenario does not apply to you, you gotta make your own move. Hello, its 2013! Thanks to technology, there are now applications that can help you go ahead of your destiny (if you believe in it).
Enter Paktor, the newest social engagement app that gives you the chance to meet people near your area without the fuss.
Using your phone’s GPS, the app will show you who are the other Paktor users near your location. Then, you can quietly ogle at their photos and do your “research”. If you find someone interesting, just click like. If they like you back, hola, you can start exchanging messages through chat. And if you think they’re really interesting, why not set a date? Since your near each other, setting a rendezvous will not be a problem.
Paktor Official Launch
Just recently, this app made a formal launch and invited members of the press and VIPs to experience Paktor, all while enjoying beats of international DJ, DJ Kulkid.
Hosted by Raymond Gutierrez, guests mingled throughout the night as they familiarized themselves with the application and played around to see if they matched with any other attendees.
If you want to get the Paktor experience like these guests, it’s high time to download this free app on your iOS or Android phone. Visit www.gopaktor.com for more details and updates.
