Okcupid Search By Username 2021
Since you can create a profile, search for matches, and message people for free, you have nothing to lose by giving OkCupid a try. OkCupid is especially popular with singles in their 30s to 40s, so if you’re serious about finding high-quality matches in that age bracket, upgrading to a premium membership could be a good investment. OkCupid Profile “About Me” #5: Things I am not. Using emojis for the OkCupid profile prompt “Things I am not” is the perfect chance to reveal your sassy side. Emojis can be interpreted in many different ways, so describing yourself with them in your OkCupid profile will lead to follow-up questions in your chat. I used to be able to find the search engine on top of the page, am i just blind? Mouse over your own profile pic in the top right corner and click 'search by username' in the drop-down(Or something similar to that) 4. Okcupid draibop in Google hope they allow the robots to search you on mode.
Think it’s impossible? Think again!
Since my tutorial on How To Find Someone’s Tinder Profile was a tremendous success, I’m back with another super useful tutorial for another huge dating site: OkCupid.
I signed up for OkCupid way back in 2007 and actually met my ex-husband through that site. After our divorce I went back on OkCupid and then met the infamous Bank Robber. With multiple other stories of disappointment and heartache, I can officially say that Cupid’s aim has definitely been way off for me for this past decade.

But back to finding someone’s profile on OkCupid. Think about why you’re looking for it. Do you have a sneaking suspicion that your partner might be cheating? (hint: trust your gut!) Or are you hoping to see if the cute person at spin class might be on the app and this is a perfect way to connect? (hint: say hi next time!) Either way, make sure that you’re using this tutorial for good only.
Like the other posts, I’m going to break this down pretty easily into a few steps.
- Sign up for an account on OkCupid on your desktop/laptop (way easier than the mobile app). Oh and it’s totally up to you how much information you want to put in your profile in case the person in question sees you on the platform too.
- Start with the filters. Most important start with how old they are and limit the search to a few miles within their zip code.
- Drill deeper into the filters: Know how tall he/she is? Their views on children? Smoker vs non-smoker?
- Keep their last log-in as anywhere in the past year so you can get everyone that is matching your criteria.
- Now scroll through your matches.
- Bingo. You goteeem.
Now on an off chance that this didn’t immediately work, you may have to get rid of a few of the filters you put in. Maybe they answered that they are in fact smokers so taking that filter off might lead to their profile. Or maybe they lied about their age – you may have to expand the age radius.
If that doesn’t work, there’s one last trick up my sleeve. The OkCupid Username. Though they recently did away with all usernames and opted instead for real people names, you can still find a profile by it’s old username. Say that the person you’re looking for has an Instagram of “SnowBoarder87” and a Twitter name of “SnowBoarder87”. There’s a pretty good chance that when they signed up for OkCupid, they used the same username, right? So try the url https://www.okcupid.com/profile/SnowBoarder87 and if that was their username, you should see their shiny face on the screen right about now 🙂
So that’s about it – that’s the only free way to find someone’s OkCupid profile. If you want some one on one talk time about it, go to the end of this post and you’ll see a way to connect directly with me for a phone tutorial.
If you’re looking for someone’s social media accounts including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Amazon Wishlist, Pinterest, (etc.), you should leave it to us professionals. We’ll track down someones entire electronic footprint (including arrests, sex offender status, marital vibes, etc.) and give you a detailed report including those huge red flags for only $29.99. For the price of the first round of drinks? I’d say that’s worth some peace of mind.

Okcupid Search By Username 2021 Online
We ask that you use your first name instead of a username, but if you're not comfortable showing your first name, feel free to use initials or a nickname, as long as it's something you're comfortable having your date call you!
You cannot change your name on the mobile website. You'll have to switch to the full website or the app to do so.
Safety
Dating (and hooking up and friendship) is more personal than a username. We want to make interactions here more human, and part of that is introducing yourself as you would in real life. Interactions on OkCupid are interactions between real people, and using first names is one good way to remember that.
Of course, we also want OkCupid to be a safe and happy place for everyone. We're not asking for your full, legal name. You can use a nickname if you'd like, or initials, or anything you'd like to be called by your date. You can read more on our blog post.
If you'd prefer a greater degree of anonymity than that, we do offer Incognito Mode, which hides your profile from anyone unless you like or message them. You can find out more here.
In any case, if anyone on OkCupid gives you any cause for concern, either for behavior on OkCupid or in real life, please report them. You can report anyone from their profile or from your conversation with them in the messages page. We take reports of inappropriate behavior very seriously.
