Clarity before chemistry
A useful introduction begins with compatible expectations. A relationship takes much more than an algorithm can know.
Eligibility comes first
A profile must satisfy its current display and operational participation rules before it can be recommended. Blocks and existing connections are respected. Known age and location preferences are considered before any ranking signal.
Permission, identity verification and participation describe different things. A profile can have recorded display authority without independently authenticated individual consent or a verified identity. We do not merge those into a stronger claim.
Aligned
Aligned means the available structured information agrees on the particular topic shown. It might be a shared relationship direction or a similar communication preference.
It does not establish attraction, emotional compatibility, personal safety or a future relationship. Read the full profile rather than treating a label as a decision.
Worth discussing
A known difference is sometimes a useful conversation starter. Different routines, expectations about distance or family plans deserve clear questions rather than guesswork.
If a topic truly rules out a relationship for you, identify it as a requirement. Apply requirements with care; uncertainty is not evidence that someone fails them.
Not yet known
Not yet known means one or both profiles have not provided suitable information. It does not mean that a profile is incompatible or unwilling to discuss a topic.
We do not infer personal values, sensitive traits or lifestyle from photographs. Source-supported facts and member-provided answers are the basis for the information shown.
Use a profile to begin a conversation
Ask a specific, respectful question. Listen to how an answer relates to your own expectations, and allow time for clarification.
There is no scientific soulmate percentage here. Recommendation explanations make the available information easier to understand; they do not replace your judgment or guarantee an outcome.
