Cultural Compatibility

Discover fun, culturally-inspired compatibility insights with the people you're dating.

Overview

Revoir includes four compatibility systems that give you playful insights into your connections. Each system calculates a compatibility score, highlights strengths and challenges, and offers actionable tips.

Tip

All compatibility features are for fun and reflection — not scientific predictions. Every relationship is unique, and real connection depends on communication and effort.


The Four Systems

Connection Style

What it is: Based on love languages theory, Connection Style identifies how you prefer to give and receive affection.

The five styles:

Style Description
Verbal Appreciation You feel loved through compliments, encouragement, and hearing "I love you"
Thoughtful Actions You feel loved when someone does something helpful for you
Meaningful Gifts You feel loved through thoughtful, personal gifts
Undivided Attention You feel loved when someone gives you their full, focused presence
Physical Closeness You feel loved through hugs, holding hands, and physical affection

Revoir Personality Type

What it is: Revoir's original dating personality system with 16 types, each with a dating-context name. Based on cognitive preference patterns.

The 16 types:

Code Name Code Name
INFP The Romantic ENFP The Spark
INFJ The Soulmate Seeker ENFJ The Devoted
INTP The Curious Mind ENTP The Adventurer
INTJ The Strategist ENTJ The Builder
ISFP The Free Spirit ESFP The Life of the Party
ISTP The Independent ESTP The Thrill Seeker
ISFJ The Nurturer ESFJ The Host
ISTJ The Rock ESTJ The Protector

Blood Type

What it is: Inspired by ketsuekigata — the Japanese cultural tradition of personality and compatibility based on blood type.

The four types: A, B, O, AB — each with distinct personality traits in this tradition.

Chinese Zodiac

What it is: Traditional 12-year cycle zodiac based on your birth year.

How it works: Your Chinese Zodiac sign is automatically calculated from your birthday. No quiz needed.

  • Score — Percentage compatibility (higher is more compatible)
  • Headline — A short summary of the pairing
  • Description — What this pairing means
  • Type badges — Shows both your types side by side

  • Score bar — Visual percentage with compatibility level (Very High, High, Good)

Enabling & Disabling Systems

  3. Enabled systems show compatibility cards on person profiles
  4. Disabled systems hide their cards but don't delete your data

Tip

Personality Type and Connection Style pickers are always visible when editing a person, even if the system isn't enabled in Settings. This lets you record data now and enable compatibility later.
