Secret Admirer

Secret Admirer

Can I change my “Secret Admirer” choice for a particular member?

You absolutely have the right to change your mind! When viewing a particular member’s profile, you can alter your choice by clicking again on Yes, No or Maybe options. You can also accomplish this from the “Secret Admirer” Results page located in the top right of the “Secret Admirer” page.

How do I change my preferences for the “Secret Admirer” game?

You can change the preferences by clicking on the gear icon in the top right of the game page or also within your Account Settings. You can control the age range and location of your “Secret Admirer” matches.

What happens if I say Yes to a member in the “Secret Admirer” game?

If you indicate you want to be a “Secret Admirer” by choosing Yes to a member, an email will be sent to that member that includes your profile (along with others), prompting him/her to then choose Yes, No or Maybe. If he/she clicks Yes for your profile, you will both receive an email notification. Mutual “Secret Admirers” make excellent matches, so take advantage of this fun feature!

What is “Secret Admirer” and how does it work?

“Secret Admirer” is the original swipe-like game. One of the hardest parts of dating is rejection. “Secret Admirer” was built to help you avoid that. You can say that you’re interested in someone but they will only learn about that if they too indicate that they are interested in you. Otherwise, they will not find out.
Here’s how it works:

We show you members based off of your Match Preferences, and you select Yes, No, or Maybe. Additionally, any time you view a profile, you can click Yes, No or Maybe on a potential “Secret Admirer”. Then, here’s what happens:

1. If you say Yes, we’ll secretly find out if that member is interested in you.
2. If you say No, we won’t show you the member’s profile again in the game or in your Matches.
3. If you say Maybe, it means you’re not sure and would like to decide later.

Will I really be anonymous as a “Secret Admirer”?

100hookup will not let another member know ahead of time if you’ve said Yes, No, or Maybe to him/her in the “Secret Admirer” game. The only way he/she will ever find out is if you both pick Yes.

 

Favorites

Favorites

How do I access my “Favorites”?

You can access your “Favorites” by clicking the “Favorites” link in the dropdown menu from your profile icon located in the top right corner of any page.

How do I remove a member as one of my “Favorites”?

If you want to remove a “Favorite”, go to your “Favorites” list, then click on the highlighted star in that member’s profile card. The star will not be highlighted anymore and that member is no longer a “Favorite.”

If I “Favorite” a member, will he/she know?

If you “Favorited” a member from “Browse,” he/she won’t know. However, if you visit any profile they will know that you visited unless you have changed your Profile Display Settings to hide when you view other members.

Watch our Video Tutorials for more tips about profile visibility on 100hookup.

What happens when I “Favorite” a member?

Your “Favorite” list is a great way to bookmark members you might want to interact with later. Throughout the site, you have the option to “Favorite” a member by clicking the star icon on their profile and their profile cards. The member will then appear on your “Favorites” list, but will not receive any notification, unlike earlier versions of this feature. You can revisit your “Favorites” list to ponder all your potential matches.

 

Search

Can I hide my profile while I search or browse?

Sometimes it feels safer to be incognito when you’re searching and looking at other 100hookupr’s profiles. Turning this on makes it so that others will not know you’ve looked at their profile until you actually contact them. Please note that this does not make your profile invisible, as members can see you if they look at their past searches, Match emails, or if they perform a keyword or photo gallery search. This ensures that a potential beshert can still find you!

To show or hide the appearance of your profile in certain sections of the site, visit the Profile Display Settings page, or follow these steps:

1. Click on your Profile thumbnail in the top right of any page
2. Click on the Account Settings link
3. Click on the Profile Display Settings link
4. Find the “Show/Hide When You View Members” option and select “Hide”

Click on the member’s profile. Below their intro, you should see a box that contains various information about that user, including the Last Logged In field.

How can I view my profile the way other members see it?

In order to view your profile, click on your Profile photo, then click “Edit Profile.” From the “Edit Profile” view, click on the button on the blue bar that says “Preview Profile.”

Can I unblock a 100hookup member after blocking him/her?

There, you can see if there are members you have accidentally blocked. If you would like to unblock a member, find that person on the list and press the unblock icon in the top right of their profile square. You will once again be able to communicate with that user and they will be able to find you in search. Remember, if you have blocked a user for a particular reason, give some serious thought to any change of heart and make sure that you truly want to communicate with that user.
