Quick answer: We’ve started introducing members from across our broader community of dating apps, so some profiles you see originated on a sister app.
- Everyone you see has identified as a member of your community.
- Nothing you do changes — Likes, Matches, and Intro Messages work exactly as they always have.
- We widened the door a little; we didn’t change who Christian Mingle is for.
- More control over whether you see matches from our sister apps is something we’re exploring, not something you can switch on today.
Christian Mingle has started introducing members from across our broader community of dating apps, so some of the profiles you see now began on one of our sister apps rather than here. This article explains who those members are, why we widened the pool, and what it changes about the way you use Christian Mingle.
What’s changed. We know Christian Mingle works because everyone here is looking for something real, within a shared faith and set of values. To help you meet more people who fit that, we’ve started introducing members from across our broader community of dating apps.
Who you’re seeing. Everyone you see has identified as a member of your community. We just widened the door a little.
What this means for you. There’s nothing you need to do. A mutual like is still what opens a conversation, and Likes, Matches, and Intro Messages all work exactly as they did before. See How Does Matching Work? If any of those terms are new to you, see A quick glossary of Christian Mingle terms.
Control over this is something we’re exploring. We’re always looking for new ways to help you find the right match, and we’re exploring ways to give you more control over whether you see matches from our sister apps. That control isn’t available yet, and we don’t want to suggest otherwise. If you’d like to weigh in, contact Customer Support using this link — we’ll share your comments with the appropriate team for consideration. For the preferences you can set today, see How do I change my preferences?
If a profile doesn’t belong here. The same tools apply to every profile you see, wherever it originated. You can block or report anyone, and our team reviews every report. See Is Christian Mingle legit? How we keep our community safe and How do I report suspicious or inappropriate behavior?
Here’s to meeting someone great!
