The question flirt

Question flirting plays a special role in designing your own profile. In short, this is a simple personality test in the form of a questionnaire.

More than 100 questions about pleasant and unpleasant things ask about your individual attitudes on various topics. The questions can be answered with a cross. You choose the answer options that best match your ideas and also indicate which answers you accept from a potential counterpart. Then weight the questions.

The question flirtation is voluntary and can be divided into several stages if you feel overwhelmed by it at the beginning.

However, if you attach great importance to the fact that your ways of thinking, wishes, dreams and ideas harmonize well with potential flirt partners, then we recommend that you answer at least 80-100 of these questions in order to achieve a certain level of significance for the matching factor .

If more than 65 percent of the answers from two participants match, the pair is considered a so-called top match. This is a simple matching algorithm that cannot be compared with scientifically based personality analyzes from large online dating agencies such as Parship , ElitePartner or eDarling .

It always gives you a good initial indication of whether you have a good basis for getting to know a prospective flirt partner.

Search and find

You can immediately see who is online via a notice on the platform. The search can be refined with various filters (general, location, external). More specific filters such as hair and eye color, relationship type, hobbies or “last online” are only available with the premium membership.

The photo flirt – swipe your way to the next date

Most people probably already know the principle of photo flirting from the popular dating app Tinder. Photos of other members are displayed and you can swipe to the right or left to indicate whether you are interested in the person shown or not.

If mutual interest is expressed, a match is made and both partners are informed about it. Afterwards you can write to each other directly and flirt with each other.

A nice, uncomplicated and entertaining feature to find matches quickly and without a lot of searching, finding and texting.

Conclusion:

Overall, we can draw a positive conclusion about elFlirt, although there are still a few disadvantages compared to other dating portals. The costs for a premium membership are comparatively low, but sending messages with the free version can take a lot of time, especially after the second message.

But there are also many advantages , such as the numerous free features that attract singles. After all, elFlirt offers the opportunity to get in touch with others for both a relationship and casual dating. Question Flirt allows users to determine their match in advance, which is a great feature that isn't unique to here.

Anyone looking for a little flirt or an adventure will quickly find like-minded people on this largely free dating platform. The members can decide for themselves what type of contacts they are looking for (angels or devils).

Compared to the big singles exchanges, there are still a limited number of members here. However, the trend is growing. Despite the certificate of authenticity of your own picture, fake profiles cannot be completely avoided. However, with the blocking function you have the option of removing these users from your contact list very quickly.
