Features: Have You Met...

Just one of the benefits of our premium membership plan, the EliteSingles Have You Met… feature is a great way to meet up more singles you might be interested in. Want to learn more? Here’s everything you need to know about Have You Met…

They say variety is the spice of life, and if you’re looking for a broader selection of local singles than your daily matches offer then our Have You Met… section should be your first port of call. Giving you the ability to search through our large member database, you can specify your own preferences to filter out bad matches and discover new and interesting people on EliteSingles…

Imagine this scenario: Alan’s a great guy. He matches your preferences perfectly, except that he’s 5ft 9” and you’ve listed that you’re not interested in guys below 5ft11”. Poor Alan, denied the chance of meeting you by just a few inches. But the Have You Met… feature gives you and Alan another swing at it – by altering your own preferences just a little, you’re able to meet a whole wealth of singles that aren’t quite ‘perfect’ but who could still be ‘the one’.

Your Matches vs. Have You Met…

At EliteSingles we offer a streamlined dating service. That is to say that the 3-7 matches we send you daily are our top picks for you, and we’re pretty confident that these matches constitute your best shot at a lasting relationship.

We base these matches on a number of important criteria; we take into account the compatibility of your personalities (with the data from your personality test), your education level, income level, location and your own stipulated preferences too. In providing you with a limited number of potential partners, we hope you’ll be able to spend more time getting to know your best matches and waste less time on bad matches.

If and when you do have a little more time on your hands however, why not check out additional profiles on your Have You Met… page? These singles are all on EliteSingles looking for lasting love too; even though they’re not exact matches, they may not necessarily be bad matches…

In fact, these profiles have their own advantage – they have the ability to surprise you! If it goes well they could even make you re-evaluate your priorities in finding a new partner. Even if there are a couple of profiles for people that your own personal deal-breakers preclude you from dating, it has to be worth a look anyway!

Breaking Your Pattern

Do you ever get the feeling that you don’t truly know what you want from a relationship? One principle behind our Have You Met… feature is that our idea of what suits us in a relationship is sometimes too narrow. Here you have the option of making it a little broader. Perhaps you have a certain type of partner you always go for – if you keep finding yourself unsuccessful in making a relationship stick, then why not try something slightly different? This is what we mean when talk about breaking your relationship pattern.

The perfect way to break your pattern, the Have You Met… search function can throw up a few ‘wildcard matches’. You can be sure of two things; firstly that EliteSingles members are all here for the same thing – a shot at long-lasting love – and secondly, the only way to really know if someone is compatible or not is to get chatting with them!

EliteSingles is a safe environment in which to try out these features. Without risk, there’s potential for great reward – the love of your life could be waiting for you on the Have You Met… page. So, when your love life is in need of a ‘wildcard’, you know exactly where to start!
