There's nothing more confusing than dating someone who doesn't make their intentions clear. How many of us have found ourselves typing out the "What are you looking for?" message ... before swiftly deleting it? Or showing our friends the conversation between us and our date to try and decipher what they're actually thinking?
Getting prepped to go on a date, then receiving a "Do you want to come to mine instead?" hook-up message is the worst. We know that investing time in someone only to realise that they want completely different things is frustrating. That's why on Badoo, we're making sharing what you're looking for mandatory, which makes dating way more straightforward for everyone.

How it works:
- When you open Badoo, you'll be prompted to tell people why you're here
- You can choose from three options:
- Here to date
- Ready for a relationship
- Open to chat
- Your answer will appear on your profile (but don't worry, you can change it at any time)
- We personalise your experience and show you people who are looking for the same things as you - so you can discover like-minded people, faster
By sharing what you're on Badoo for upfront, you'll be able to find someone who wants the same things as you - minus the awkward conversations or mind games. We know that dating is a journey, and what you want from Badoo may change, so you can change your selection at any time. When everyone is upfront about what they're looking for, it takes the pressure off dating. What could be better than that?
