A.
Your Connections page provides a single view of all Match.com members you’ve received contact from, sent communications to, or simply added to your favorites list. If someone emails or winks at you, they’ll appear as a new connection. If you email or wink at someone, you can keep track of his/her response from Connections. And if you add them to your favorites list, they’re a connection, too.

Q.
What is the difference between "Not Interested?" and "Remove"?
- Q.
What is the difference between "Not Interested?" and "Remove"?
-
A.
"Remove" actually pulls the person from your Connections page (including your favorites list), but does not communicate back to the sender that you are not interested. "Not Interested" sends a "no, thanks" response to a wink or email you have received, but does not remove him/her from your Connections page.
