By Suraj Giri

Suraj Giri is the founder, engineer and editor of LoveCalculator.love; he builds the calculators, publishes every formula and edits every page, and is not a psychologist, therapist, astrologer or numerologist.

Who is Suraj Giri?

Suraj Giri builds the calculators on this site, publishes the formula behind each one, and edits every page. He is a software engineer whose work has been in frontend systems and performance, and he did undergraduate research in cognitive psychology, on attention and time perception. He is not a psychologist, a therapist, an astrologer or a numerologist, and nothing he writes here should be read as if he were.

The site he runs was built by anonymous publishers in 2017, and he is the first named person behind it; the story is on about LoveCalculator.love. For now his is the only name among our authors.

What does Suraj Giri do at LoveCalculator.love?

Suraj Giri holds three roles at LoveCalculator.love: founder, engineer and editor. Suraj wrote the code that runs every calculator and quiz on this site, and the rule he holds himself to is that anything the code does has to be written down where you can read it. The name calculator, FLAMES, the zodiac rules, the life-path reduction and the love-language scoring are all set out under how we calculate every compatibility score, in plain words and in pseudocode, with the checks each one has to pass. If a formula changes, it is listed with every change, dated.

He also edits every page, to the rules in how pages are written, labelled and reviewed. On Game pages that means keeping the jokes on the method and never on the reader. On Tradition pages it means describing a tradition the way its practitioners hold it, and then saying plainly that it is a tradition and not evidence. On Research-informed pages it means reading the actual papers, citing them, and stating how strong the evidence is, including when it is weak.

He runs the eight release checks on every tool before a release goes out. He also answers the corrections mailbox, and a verified error is fixed within 72 hours of the report.

What is the background of Suraj Giri?

Suraj Giri's background is software engineering, with undergraduate research in cognitive psychology.

Engineering. Suraj's professional work has been in web development: frontend systems and performance. That is why this site is static, ships almost no JavaScript on its prose pages, and runs every calculator in your browser rather than on a server.

Research. As an undergraduate he did research in cognitive psychology, specifically on attention and time perception. It is the reason he reads primary sources rather than summaries, and the reason the Research-informed pages on this site cite the paper and not the press release. It is not a clinical qualification and he does not present it as one.

That background licenses him to publish and verify formulas, to read and summarise peer-reviewed relationship research, and to state how strong the evidence is. It gives him no clinical training and no standing in astrology or numerology, and no page here may suggest otherwise.

Other work. Suraj is also the founder, engineer and editor of The Blog Timer, a productivity timer site where he publishes a timestamp-based timer engine, an eight-test accuracy methodology run on every release, a bibliography of the research behind each preset, and a public changelog with corrections within 72 hours. The way this site is run is the same way, applied to love compatibility. His personal site is seoexpertinnepal.com.

Which pages does Suraj Giri write?

Suraj Giri writes every Tradition, Research-informed and trust page on the site. Game pages carry the editorial byline "the love gurus" and credit him as the engineer of the formula on the methodology page. The list below is built from the bylines and grouped by label, so it is never maintained by hand.

Which pages does Suraj Giri review?

None. Suraj does not review his own work, and the reviewer line on a page names someone else or says "not yet appointed". The roles we are recruiting for are listed on the editorial policy.

How do you contact Suraj Giri?

Write to info@lovecalculator.love. It is the address for corrections, citation problems, methodology questions and general mail for the site. Include the address of the page and the sentence in question. A correction is acknowledged within 24 hours, and everything else gets a reply within 5 working days. A verified error is fixed within 72 hours or you get an explanation of why not.
