Your profile

A full dating profile designed to show who you actually are - Not just photos and a job title. Prompts, interests, relationship intent, and verified identity work together to help the right people find you.

Photos

Upload up to 6 photos with drag-to-reorder. Your primary photo appears in discovery and on your match cards.

Bio

A free-text bio field with no hard character limit. Write something real, not a bullet list.

Profile prompts

Choose from curated prompts like "My ideal Sunday is…" and answer them in your own words. Prompts appear on your profile between photos.

Relationship intent

Set what you are looking for - Casual dating, something serious, friendship, or open to anything. Filters in discovery respect this setting.

Interests

Select from a structured tag library. Interests appear on your profile and are used for discovery filtering.

Pronouns and identity

Full gender identity and pronoun fields. These are optional and visible only to other members.

Location

City-level location shown on profiles. Never your exact address. Used for distance filtering in discovery.

Privacy level

Set your profile to private (only you), members-only (verified accounts), or public (visible in search engines). You control this anytime.

Profiles are not indexed by search engines unless you explicitly set your privacy level to public. Most members keep the default members-only setting.

Discovery and matching

Browse real profiles and find people who match what you are actually looking for. Discovery shows verified, recently active members. Matching only opens when two people both like each other.

Browse view

Scroll through a list of profiles on desktop, with photos, bio, and interests visible at a glance.

Swipe view

Card-based swipe interface on mobile for faster browsing. Same profiles, different layout.

Filters

Age range, distance, relationship intent, and interests. Filters persist across sessions.

Like and pass

Like profiles you are interested in. Pass on the rest - Passes are silent and never shown to the other person.

Mutual matching

When you both like each other, a match is created and messaging unlocks. Neither person is notified until it is mutual.

Likes received

See who has already liked your profile from your dashboard. Act on them directly without going through discovery.

Read the full how it works walkthrough for a step-by-step guide to discovery, liking, and matching.

Messaging

Private, match-only messaging keeps your inbox clean. No unsolicited contact, no cold messages from strangers. Every conversation starts because both people chose to be there.

Match-only access

You can only message - And be messaged by - People you have both liked. This is not an option or a setting; it is the only way messaging works on me.you.

Persistent history

Your message history is saved and available whenever you log in. No time limits, no expiry on conversations.

Block and report

Block or report from inside any conversation with one click. Blocked users cannot see your profile or contact you.

Human moderation

All reports go to a human moderation team, not an automated filter. Reports are reviewed and acted on.

No read receipts

Messages show delivery status but not read status. No pressure to respond the moment you open a thread.

First message tools

If you are not sure how to start, use the first message generator for personalised suggestions based on their profile.

Community diaries

A journaling feature built into your account. Write about your dating life, reflections, and experiences. Keep entries private, share with members, or publish publicly. No other dating platform has this.

Visibility setting Who can read it Indexed by search engines
Private Only you No
Members only Verified me.you members No
Public Anyone on the internet Yes

Diary visibility can be changed per entry at any time. Changing from public to private removes the entry from the public feed immediately. Browse the community diary feed to see what members are writing about.

Free dating tools

15+ standalone tools available to anyone - No account required. They are designed to help you at every stage of dating: before the first message, during the conversation, before the first date, and after.

Safety and trust

Safety is built into how the platform works, not added on top as an afterthought. Email verification, mutual-match messaging, and human moderation are structural - Not optional settings.

Email verification

Every active account has a verified email. Unverified accounts cannot appear in discovery or send messages.

Mutual-match messaging

The messaging system only unlocks when both people have liked each other. No cold contact is possible.

Block from anywhere

Block a user from their profile, from discovery, or from inside a message thread. Takes one click.

Report and review

Report a profile or message for any reason. Reports go to the moderation team, not an automated queue.

Profile privacy controls

Set your profile to private, members-only, or public. Change it any time without losing your account data.

Diary privacy controls

Every diary entry has its own visibility setting. Private entries are never shown to anyone, including other members.

Read the full safety guide for practical advice on staying safe while dating online, including what to do if something goes wrong.

Account management

You are in control of your account from signup to deletion. Every setting is reversible, and nothing happens to your data without your explicit action.

Email change

Change your email with re-verification of the new address.

Password change

Change your password with re-authentication of the current one.

Notification settings

Control which notifications you receive and how.

Referral system

A personal invite link to share. Track who accepted your invitation from your dashboard.

Deactivation
