I have a question about the Favorites feature.

Since the “favorites” feature became visible a few days ago, I wonder if more women have started worrying about their own rank… I do care about it too, but once you start receiving offers from men, you gradually get a sense of where you stand. And even if you don’t, I think what really matters is whether there are men who want to make you an offer. This new feature might be an opportunity for women. Whether you can make the most of it is up to you, though. I was also surprised to find that I can now see all of my photos instead of just one. After looking through them all, my reaction was basically, “Wow, I look terrible in photos. What a shock!” But I suppose that’s probably how other people see me too, haha. For now, I’ll do what I can and work on improving myself!

> What class do you think I would fall into? If a black-tier man sends you an offer, I don’t think you can determine what class you’re in, since black-tier men can send offers to any woman. On the other hand, if you receive an offer from a standard-tier man, you can assume you’re in the standard class, because standard-tier men can only send offers to standard-tier women. As for favorites, men can add women above their own class to their favorites. So even if a standard-tier man has added you to his favorites, that doesn’t necessarily mean you’re standard-tier. For that reason, I think it’s better not to try to determine your own class based on the class of men who have added you to their favorites. > If a man adds me to his favorites and I reply or message him, would that make him more likely to actually send me an offer? Now that you mention it, I do think it could influence his decision. Men add women they’re interested in—those who meet a certain standard—to their favorites, but most of them never go as far as actually making an offer. However, if you send a message along the lines of “That’s nice,” or something that really catches his attention, I think it could be quite effective. So if a man adds you to his favorites, it might be a good idea to send him a positive message. Eventually, other women will probably start doing the same thing, and its effectiveness will likely decrease. But for now, I think it could work quite well.

- What class do you think I would fall into? → I’m not sure, but probably somewhere around Black or Platinum. - If I receive a favorite and then send a reply (?) or message, would that make it more likely for you to actually make me an offer? → It’s better than doing nothing, but sending a generic message could backfire, so in that case, I think it’s better not to send one. Also, as Taro mentioned, if you’re going to send a message, it’s probably best to do so right after adding someone to your favorites. That’s my answer.

This is the third question I’ve seen lately asking, “What class am I?” Since Black members have added me to their favorites, I guess that means I’m Black too… I’m not sure, but maybe that’s the case. If thinking that way helps you feel good, then I suppose that’s fine. Even someone in Black may add a Standard member to their favorites. “What?! I’m Standard? No way.” Then… why ask in the first place? That’s what I find myself thinking. Rather than worrying about your own class, why not try taking some kind of action toward the men who have added you to their favorites? Whether that actually leads to an offer depends on the man in question. Why not reach out to someone you genuinely think seems nice and feel, “Thank you for adding me to your favorites”? That’s what I would do. Instead of worrying about your class, I think it’s better to do what you can!

Among the men who have added you to their favorites, you’re probably in the lowest-priced membership tier, or the one just above it. I feel that taking some kind of action is more likely to lead to an offer than doing nothing.

Black-tier men can see all women ranked Black or below, so just because a Black-tier man added you to his favorites doesn’t necessarily mean you’re Black-tier yourself. Even Standard women can be favorited by Black-tier men. That said, if you’re getting favorites from several Black-tier men, you must be quite a catch, so it’s probably fine to consider yourself Black-tier. Who knows, though. It’s a hassle, and it makes no practical difference either way, so just go with that and move on to the next topic. Adding someone to your favorites means you’re interested in them, so if you respond, send a message, or otherwise react and get their attention, I think it increases the chances of turning that interest into an offer. You should do it within a week of being added to their favorites. Emotional marketing is all about timing. This happens all the time on social media too: once someone adds you to their “favorites,” you remain there unless they actively remove you. So if you’ve been favorited for a while without receiving an offer, they may simply have forgotten to remove you. You may not actually be a long-term favorite. Still, at the exact moment they added you, there was definitely some positive reason behind it. So don’t wait—think of yourself as fresh fish and go fishing while you’re still in season. If everyone starts doing that, men will back off because it’ll start to feel like a used-car sales or moving-quote website. But for now, you should still be fine. Taro
