What is a tease? How many times can I tease someone?

A tease is a quick, fun way to let someone know you're interested. You pick a one-liner from our list of teases, and it's sent to the member of your choice. The member gets the tease in their onsite email Inbox and then can go to your profile and tease you back. You get up to sixty teases a month, but can only tease each member once.

All members can send and receive teases for free. If you'd like to take it a step further, we suggest sending an email and starting up a real conversation.

How do I change my email address or password?

You can change your email address or password on the edit your attributes page.

There are two ways to get there:

After you've made your changes, click "continue" at the bottom of the page to save.

How do I keep other members from knowing that I looked at their profile or hot listed them?

If you don't want other members to know when you've looked at their profile or hot listed them, go to Profile Display Settings in Member Services and select "hide" in the section called "Show/Hide When I View Or Hot List Members."

Keep in mind that members who are most active on the site keep their profile visible in all places because it increases their chances of connecting with people. You never know, someone special may be looking for you but never find you if your profile is hidden.

Hot Lists have been a real hit on our site and have helped bring some unsuspecting couples together! People keep telling us that they contact people simply because they saw in the hot list that a member looked at their profile. So before you hit "hide," give it a chance to work.

Why would members want other members to know when they look at their profile or hot list them?

Members who are really active on the site like to let other members know when they look at their profile or hot list them because it spices things up and often breaks the ice when it comes to emailing.

So many times one member contacts someone simply because they saw that that person had looked at their profile or hot listed them. Members also say that their hot lists lead them to meet members that they might not have seen in a search otherwise.

Think about it. If you saw that someone had hot listed you and you liked what you saw, wouldn't you be more likely to send an email?

Why does my hot list counter change?

Half of your hot lists tell you your activity on the site. Every time you look at or contact another member, it shows up in your hot lists and the numbers go up accordingly.

The other half of your hot lists tell you about other members looking at your profile or emailing or teasing you. Every time someone looks at your profile or contacts you, it shows up in your hot lists and the numbers go up accordingly. Keep in mind, however, that some members choose to hide their profile from showing up in your hot lists.

Also, in order to keep your lists up-to-date, we periodically clean out the members that have been in your "viewed" list for a while. This also changes the counter.

Do people actually meet on your site? Do they ever get married?

Finding love online is becoming very common, get to know each other, and start relationships. We hope the relationship leads to the ultimate relationship of marriages.

When someone contacts me, where does the message go and how do I respond?

Once you have created your own profile, other members can start contacting you. We'll let you know you have messages waiting for you by sending a notice to your personal email address. If you are already an AFGsingles.com member, then log in and pick up the messages at your personal onsite Inbox. The AFGsingles message Inbox is available exclusively to members. Once you are a member, you can read all incoming messages, respond to the members who contacted you, and initiate contact with whomever you like. With your personal onsite email, you'll always remain anonymous and in control.

How do I edit my profile? How do I hide my profile?

To update your profile, go to profile at the top of the page. Click edit next to the section you'd like to update. Be sure to save your changes at the bottom of the screen when you're done.

Try to put your best foot forward with at least one photo and snappy, detailed essays. The photo is key since most people feel more comfortable writing to members they can see. Try to stay positive in your essays and let the real you shine.

To hide your profile, go to Profile Display Settings in Member Services . Keep in mind, however, that members who are most active on the site keep their profile visible in all places because it ups their chances of connecting with people. And you never know, someone special may be looking for you and never get to find you if your profile is hidden.

When I remove my profile, does it end my subscription? Can I put my subscription on hold?

No. Once you purchase a subscription, it will remain active for the remainder of your initial term.
