A small agreement

The Shortlist Pact

Before joining, we ask members to agree to a few simple things.

  1. 01

    Treat people like people.

    Not content. Not validation. Not background noise.

  2. 02

    If you're not interested, communicate clearly.

    Ghosting is easy. Respect takes effort.

  3. 03

    Don't collect matches.

    This isn't Pokémon.

  4. 04

    Be intentional.

    You don't need to know exactly what you want — but you should genuinely want to meet someone.

  5. 05

    Show up.

    To conversations. To dates. To your own life.

  6. 06

    Leave people better than you found them.

    Even if it's not a match.

Modern dating does not need more chaos.
It needs better norms.
