What Is a Match Portrait?

6

So, what is it?

The Match Portrait is a way to take the pressure off you...and have our trusty system find you potential dates and matches! Your Match Portrait is a questionnaire. Find it here. After filling it out, we'll send you profiles who are compatible with your personality traits, values, outlook on life and more, so that you can start communicating and getting to know each other.

As you're filling out your Match Portrait, be honest!  Some of these questions can be a bit personal, but members' responses are never seen by human eyes. So it's important to be honest when answering these questions to ensure that the best possible matches are suggested.

Each member's responses to the match portrait are evaluated using a Likert scale and using these results, a comparison is made between other members. Those who are deemed to be compatible are then suggested to each other as matches.

(Also, heads up, CatholicMatch only suggests matches in accordance with the Catholic Sacrament of Marriage to those who are free to marry in the Catholic Church. If your marital status is listed as divorced contact customer support to verify that you're free to marry to activate this feature).

How can I review my matches?

Matches appear on your Match Page for your review. If you're certain that you don't want to get to know the match, select "no" when you're asked if they interest you. If they DO interest you or you'd like to communicate to see if they might be a good match, select "yes". Then if you change your mind after getting to know them, you can change your response to "no" to remove them from your match list.

Don't forget to send a message to any match who interests you!

What if I don't like the majority of my matches?

If you were honest when providing your responses to the Match Portrait questionnaire, we'd like to encourage you to be open minded when reviewing your matches. This is because a lot of time, money, and resources went into researching successful faith-focused marriages so that we could provide a high quality matching system that focuses on matching men and women who truly have potential.

With that being said, travel may not be an option for everyone so we provide match filters to narrow potential matches based on distance and a few other key factors. Adjusting these match filters will not remove past matches, but it will ensure that future suggestions meet the criteria provided.
