Academic Singles Review November 2024

You can contact your matches by going to their profiles and clicking the chat icon. As mentioned in the Registration process above, you can choose a pre-written question which will be sent en masse to your matches. You can then select from the responses and start communicating with someone you like. Even though you're already talking to someone regularly, you can still choose to remain anonymous. You get the final say on when your matches get to see your photo.

After setting your search criteria (which can be changed and saved anytime), you have to wait for 24 hours before your new matches get delivered to you. Only a few users will be added to your existing list of matches since their matchmaking process relies on how many people registered recently. Male members with free accounts can send one free message to each match. When you receive something, the entire message will be blurred. Only premium members (and women) can read their messages and send unlimited messages.

Profiles can be incredibly detailed. Besides the basics, there are sections where you can state the food you like, holidays you enjoy, sports you enjoy, films & TV shows, leisure activities, and more. Within them, you can choose between various options and rate them on a 6-star scale. For example, among the food you like, you can include Japanese food and give it four stars.

The personality test isn't only used to find your match. Your answers are also analyzed to give you your personality profile. Your personality profile is an evaluation of your characteristics. It shows where you stand on a scale that links various personality characteristics such as:

• Rationality versus Emotionality
• Tradition versus Innovation
• Distance versus Attachment
• Observation versus Feeling

Here is an example analysis under Observation versus Feeling:

Balanced, with a tendency towards observation

You rely on immediately tangible things that have already proven their worth. You avoid conjectural procedures and prefer to rely on your common-sense. People with a strong inclination towards cognitive perception take in the facts and details of the surrounding world, the way reality presents them. A feeling person prefers to deal with correlations, ideas, and associations, which are intuitive rather than obvious.

When you visit your match's account, you will see their personality profile contrasted against yours. This gives you your compatibility number. No clear scale mentions what could be the lowest or highest number possible, but it seems like the average is somewhere above 100.
