How to Match with Sims in Cupid’s Corner
The Matches tab in Lovestruck: Cupid’s Corner App is next to the My Bio tab. Keep in mind that if your Sim is already in a relationship, such as marriage, the Matches tab won’t show up in the app. The app also highlights your Sim’s attraction based on the other Sim’s traits, but that’s not an assurance that the other Sim feels the same.
After viewing the profiles of different matches, you can either skip by pressing Next or click Heart to confirm the match. You can choose matches from 7 sims, which can be refreshed by clicking Refresh Matches to get a new batch. Note that Refresh Matches have a cooldown of 12 hours.

Romantic Date – Going straight for the heart, this is a steamy romantic date. Whether to rekindle an enduring love or experience the butterflies of a new romance, this date is the right pick to explore feelings.
