A real connection isn't built on a first impression alone. Core Values lets you put what actually matters to you, honesty, ambition, family, or something else entirely, right on your profile, so it's easier to find the people who are genuinely aligned with you. It's a small addition with a real impact on who you end up talking to.
Put your values at the heart of your profile
Pick the three things that matter most to you in life and in a relationship, from a full list covering everything from honesty to personal growth. It's a quick, honest exercise, and one that says more about what you're looking for than most bios ever could.
Your values show up alongside your photos and other details, visible to anyone who comes across your profile. There's no need to explain yourself in a paragraph, they're right there, plainly stated, doing some of the work for you.
Shared values aren't just something you stumble into after a match, they're also searchable. Use Search to filter specifically by background and values, so you can go find people who prioritize what you do, not just wait to see who happens to align once you're already talking.
Are weekly meetups with friends non-negotiable? Is trust a bigger deal after a past relationship? Do you want a partner who takes ambition as seriously as you do? Core Values gives you a simple way to answer those questions before a conversation even starts, and to go looking for the answer directly, rather than hoping it comes up.
Instead of discovering, three dates in, that you wanted very different things, you get a signal from the very beginning, one you can actively search for, not just passively display. Shared values tend to be one of the clearest signs a relationship has real potential, which is exactly why we've made them both visible on your profile and filterable in Search.
