important! This area divides profiles into three categories:

have used the
Show Interest feature
with you
Emailed You
Click “Emailed You” to see members who have
sent you email via the Email Me! feature

These are members who have saved
your profile via the  Save
Profile feature. Maybe you'll hear from them soon!
You can also keep track of profiles you have expressed interest in
by visiting the “Who’s Interesting?” area. |

section work? |

been checking out your profile. The page is automatically
sorted by the most recent viewings first. |
| Show Interest |
| How
does the “Show Interest”
feature work? |
| Like the name implies, show interest
is a quick, fun way to show someone that you’re
interested. Press Show Interest
and you’ll have a chance to read the prepared
tease before sending. You are only allowed to tease
each member once. |
| Saved Profiles |
| How
does the “Save Profile”
section work? |

stored in the “Who’s Interesting?”
section of your account for future reference. To
