Is Having a "Type" Stopping You From Finding Love?

Or is it the very thing that could help you find it faster?In a recent blog by Verge (@vergeapp.io), they pose a common question in the dating world: Is having a type limiting your ability to find love?At MyType, we respectfully disagree.
We believe your type is not the problem — it’s the blueprint to your best match.Let’s flip the script:

“Dating is a numbers game.”

Verge says: You have to meet a lot of people to find the one. Having a type limits your chances.

We say: Time is precious. Dating isn't about casting the widest net — it's about casting the right one.

  • Having a type means you know what aligns with you: your energy, values, communication style, and long-term goals.

  • Why waste months (or years) dating the wrong people, when you can focus on those who actually fit you?

At MyType, we help you define and find your person — not just any person.

“Attraction isn’t black and white.”

Verge says: Don’t be too strict with physical types — chemistry can surprise you.

We say: Absolutely. But attraction and alignment aren’t mutually exclusive.

  • Your type isn’t just about how someone looks — it’s about the energy you're drawn to, the vibe you feel, and the connection that inspires intimacy.

  • We don’t box you in — we help you refine what draws you in.

“Types can be based on stereotypes.”

Verge says: You might unknowingly rule out good people because of bias.

We say: A true type isn’t based on surface-level assumptions — it’s rooted in self-awareness.

  • At MyType, we encourage users to go deeper: What are your non-negotiables? What values matter? What kind of presence lights you up?

  • We help you break away from societal labels and define your real preferences — ones that are built on alignment, not assumption.

“You grow when you date outside your type.”

Verge says: Letting go of a type helps you grow and discover yourself.

We say: Why wait to stumble upon growth?

  • When you're dating your type, you’re not staying in your comfort zone — you're building something intentional.

  • The right kind of connection doesn’t keep you stagnant — it elevates you.

  • At MyType, we believe your type will challenge you, stretch you, and bring out your best — not because they’re different from you, but because they’re right for you.

“Compatibility goes deeper than a type.”

Verge says: The best match might not look like what you expect.

We say: That’s exactly why MyType exists — to help you figure out what compatibility actually looks like for you.

  • Your type isn’t just about height or style — it’s about communication, values, love language, lifestyle, and attraction all working together.

  • Compatibility is never random. It’s created when two people who truly align come together — and we’re here to help make that happen faster, with less guesswork and more intention.

💡 So… Should You Have a Type?

Yes — if it’s built on alignment.
Yes — if it helps you date with clarity, not confusion.
Yes — if you value your energy, time, and emotional bandwidth.

Because here’s the truth:

  • At MyType, we don’t believe in settling.

  • We don’t believe in “just see where it goes.”

  • We don’t believe in waiting for chemistry to grow out of nothing.

  • We believe in curating love — with purpose, with direction, and with the kind of connection that feels just right.
