How will genomics affect dating and marriages?

Lol. Purpose of dating is to have fun and see whether or not you enjoy being around a person. A genetic test won't tell you that

I think having fun is a genetic test in itself. On an average date different types of intelligence is tested in so many ways, communication skills, creativity, leadership skills, dominance levels, charisma, forward planning, humour.

I suppose the question is if you can just do a scientific test to see if someone has these qualities will dating not have to take place.

I would say no, for the same reason that men still have a tendency for women with certain types of hips, big perky tits and so on even though breast feeding isn't necessary and we have C sections. People still enjoy the breeding process the natural way with natural tastes.

I also don't think any genetic test will ever tell you whether or not you will like spending time with someone.
