50slove Review April 2024

Signing up on the site is easy and free. The actual signing-up process only takes, more or less, a minute to do so. All you have to do is to provide your gender, email address, and nominated password.

Tip: Make sure you use a valid email address because this will be used for the verification process later on.

That's it. You'll then be directed to a page welcoming its new members.

However, creating your profile takes quite some time. You need to answer an in-depth personality test, which is composed of more than 100 items. This would take you approximately 10 minutes to finish. Sample questions are as follows:

• What three things are you most thankful for in your life?
• Could you imagine moving in with your future partner?
• How important are the smoking habits of your partner?

Tip: Make sure you answer this personality test truthfully because this is the basis for finding the best matches for you.

Next is the email verification process. Just check the confirmation message sent to you on your email then click 'Confirm Your Email Address'.

Then it's now time to customise your profile. You'll be asked to answer 10 questions. You have the option to skip this part or answer only those that you find interesting. Remember that this will be displayed on your profile.

Then you may now upload several photos of yourself. Note that all uploaded photos would still be under review.

Once you're done customising your profile, you could then start browsing your matches' profiles. See how well you fit together based on the info displayed. For non-premium members, note that you can't see members' photos unless you are matched. (Someone becomes your match only when both of you sent a smiley to each other.) But if you avail of a subscription, you can see all your potential maches' photos.

If you find someone interesting, you may send a smiley or add him or her to your 'Favourites'. However, you can only enjoy sending and receiving first messages for free within the first 24 hours. To fully make use of the site's messaging feature, you need to become a premium member first. Premium members get to send and receive unlimited messages.

Note that you won't have a chance to search for members. But you'll be given new matches each day. You may check your email for updates. A summary of those who have visited your profile and those who sent you messages will also be sent to your email. But you may opt not to receive email notifications by changing your notification preferences in your 'My Account' settings.

Profiles have 2 sections: 'Personal Description' and 'Questions and Answers'. The 'Personal Description' section shows your height, ethnicity, religion, smoking habit, and educational attainment. You have the option to instantly edit those except your height, in which you still need to contact Customer Care. The 'Questions and Answers' section displays your answers to the questions given when you created your profile. If you skipped such or answered only a few, don't worry because you may edit it anytime. 

Tip: Consider answering as many questions as you can to let your potential matches get to know you well. 

You can also see the following tabs on your profile:

• Gallery

This displays your uploaded photos. Note that only those you are matched with and those who are premium members can view those.

• Personality

You may read your personality analysis here. This is the result of the in-depth personality test you took. You can only access this once you avail of a subscription.

• Interests

This showcases your hobbies, favourite music genres, and favourite sports.

One cool feature is that you can change your profile's background. There are 4 designs that can be used for free. Other designs can only be used by premium members.

Though there are lots of sections that need to be filled out, the detailedness of a profile still depends on the user since he or she has the option to skip most of those sections. Also, there are several fake profiles on the site because there are no strict security measures. There are also animators or paid profiles present, which is clearly stated in its Terms and Conditions. Those animators usually try to communicate to you every time the number of active members is low. It's quite challenging to distinguish paid profiles from real accounts. By this, we give its profile quality a rating of 3 out of 5.
