Your Profile
Useful tips when creating a profile
Do you know that interesting profiles with a photo and detailed information attract 20 times more interest than poorly written ones without a photo?
We would recommend putting your real age and the most recent photo on your profile. It does not have to be a professional photograph as a more natural one will attract a better reaction. At the end of the day this is how you look in real life and this is exactly how your future partner will see you.
Take your time to write a description. Paint a true picture of yourself. Your profile is your digital self – make it as close to your real self as possible.
Other members would like to know what your expectations are. Try not to be too precise, make sure you leave room for others to find out more about you but still give a good impression of your ideal match. It will help to avoid people who you are not really interested in at all.
Fill in all the additional criteria that you think is relevant to you. This will help us to send you updates with more accurate matches and also will give very useful information about you to other members.
Presenting yourself well is the first step towards success on the Indian Casual Dates
Is my profile censored?
Yes, each new or updated profile goes through a manual moderation process. We do not moderate your personal information.

Please note that any new pictures and updated profile descriptions will go through our moderation process and it may take a few hours to get approved.
