1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, are configured to:

  • electronically receive a plurality of user online-dating profiles, each profile comprising traits of a respective user;

    electronically receive a first request for matching, the first request electronically submitted by a first user using a first electronic device;

    determine from the plurality of user online-dating profiles a set of potential matches for the first user;

    cause the display of a graphical representation of a first potential match of the set of potential matches to the first user on a graphical user interface of the first electronic device, the first potential match corresponding to a second user;

    receive from the first electronic device of the first user a first positive preference indication associated with the graphical representation of the second user on the graphical user interface, the first positive preference indication associated with a first gesture performed on the graphical user interface, wherein the first gesture comprises a first swiping gesture;

    cause the graphical user interface to display a graphical representation of a second potential match of the set of potential matches instead of the graphical representation of the first potential match;

    receive from a second electronic device of the second user a positive preference indication regarding the first user;

    determine to allow the first user to communicate with the second user in response to receiving from the first electronic device of the first user the first positive preference indication regarding the second user and receiving from the second electronic device of the second user the positive preference indication regarding the first user;

    receive from the first electronic device of the first user a first negative preference indication associated with a graphical representation of a third potential match on the graphical user interface, the first negative preference indication associated with a second gesture performed on the graphical user interface, the third potential match corresponding to a third user, wherein the second gesture comprises a second swiping gesture different than the first swiping gesture;

    without allowing communication between the first user and the third user, receive from the first electronic device of the first user a second positive preference indication associated with a graphical representation of a fourth potential match on the graphical user interface, the second positive preference indication associated with the first gesture performed on the graphical user interface, the fourth potential match corresponding to a fourth user;

    receive from a third electronic device of the fourth user a second negative preference indication associated with a graphical representation of the first user; and

    without allowing communication between the first user and the fourth user, receive from the first electronic device of the first user a third positive preference indication associated with a graphical representation of a fifth potential match on the graphical user interface, the third positive preference indication associated with the first gesture performed on the graphical user interface, the fifth potential match corresponding to a fifth user.
