How Do I Delete My Favorites on Match.com?

There are multiple ways to delete favorites on Match.com. Favorites are also called "likes". First, go to the Match.com website and login. Next, go to your favorites list and click the "X" on the profile of a member you'd like to remove from your search results. You can reverse your decision in the future by visiting the "Removed profiles" page from your account settings menu. Another way to delete your favorites would be to blacklist a member. You do that by clicking on the three dots on their profile page or on a message they've sent to you. You then click "Blacklist" and the member will be blocked. They will also be deleted from your favorites list.

When you're trying to "get your date on" on Match.com, it's important to stay organized. Sometimes you just want to be able to properly delete your "favorites" or your "likes" so that you can figure out exactly who the next love of your life will be in a more efficient manner.

If you'd like to be able to delete your Match.com "favorites" or "likes", you're in the right place! We are going to assist you with that in this guide.

Before we begin, please be sure to have your Match.com login information so that you can access your account.

Do you have your account information? Great! Let's go:

1) The first step when you're looking to clean up your favorites list on Match.com is to simply login to your account on the website. After you've done that, you'll have a lot of options on your "My Account" page.

2) There are multiple ways to remove favorites or likes from your Match.com account. One way is to remove profiles from your search results. This will remove any members from view.

2) To remove profiles from your search results, which also effectively removes them from your likes or favorites list, click the "X" in the corner of their profile on your search results page. Alternatively, you can also go to a specific member's profile page and click "Remove from search." After doing that, that Match.com member will not appear in your search results any longer. They will also not appear in any of your other lists, like your "likes" or "favorites" lists. Finally, it's important to know that the member will not know you have taken any action. This is something that is private and only you will know about it. There is a limit of 10,000 "removed profiles" so you can't remove everyone on Earth, we are sad to report.

3) You can reverse the profile removal that we described in step #2 above by clicking on the "Removed Profiles" link on your account settings page. After doing that, click on the checkbox that's right beside their username. You'll be able to then click the "Show" button at the bottom of the list that appears. They will then appear in the search results again in the future.

4) The next way to delete someone from your favorites list is to blacklist the user in question.

5) To blacklist someone, you'll want to click the three dots on the member's profile or in a message that was sent by that member. When you click the three dots, a drop-down box will appear. Click on the "blacklist" link and then confirm your choice.

6) After you blacklist a member, all communication will be blocked from that member. It will also remove them from your "likes" or "favorites" lists. The member will not receive notification that they have, in fact, been blacklisted. They will still be able to view your profile, but they will not be able to message you.

7) If you need additional assistance from Match.com and you've been frustrated because you can't get a hold of a human on their customer support team, we can help you with that. We've created a page that makes it very easy to do just that. Click here for our Match.com contact page.
