When it comes to using dating apps, you sort of have to throw caution to the wind. Because all you have is a handful of photos and a profile to go by, you have to hope that whoever is on the other end, after you've matched, is legit. For example, has this person posted a slew of average, maybe even slightly boring photos, with an interesting and witty description of themselves, then will end up looking like Brad Pitt when finally you meet them in person? It may seem unlikely, but it happens. It's called reverse catfishing.

When it comes to love and romance, "compatibility" is something of a buzzword. Millennial and Gen-Z singles are known to search for compatibility via their partner's astrological signs), while personality tests promise they'll find out whether or not you're a match with someone.
