Props for your effort!<p>What I dislike (not specifically about your project, that is!) is the idea that, as a society, we&#x27;re incentivized to increasingly hide behind our screens instead of growing some balls an actually live in the &quot;real life&quot;. Here, we&#x27;re talking about dating. The other current topic: how we intend to fight democracy-destroying mass surveillance by (apparently) simply sitting behind our screens.

This used to be extremely common as a naturally viral way to harvest email addresses, the prompt was &quot;put in the email addresses of your crushes&quot;.<p>What&#x27;s your twist that sets it apart from the usual variants? (Sure, building it on top of Facebook could potentially provide some additional benefits, but what are they?)

<a href="http://www.downapp.com/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.downapp.com&#x2F;</a><p>There are more examples of apps just like this that came before (this is the only one that comes to mind at the moment), the only way I would be remotely interested is if they figured a way to solve the inherent problem of selecting all&#x2F;some of your friends as crushes to see who had you as a crush, and then what happens when someone legitimately adds the person who was just checking everyone&#x27;s crushes.

Isn&#x27;t this a PG version of bangwithfriends?

Why not limit it to say 3 friends? You can&#x27;t have a crush on every friend (you might want to bang them, but not crush?)?

Seems similar to bang with friends. Except the bang part.

&quot;Crushify&quot; is a really awkward name. And I really wish this &quot;-ify&quot; trend would end...it&#x27;s lazy and utterly lame.

I remember this exact crush feature was on Orkut about 13 years ago.

Hmm, looks like the web-version of Tinder which has already been available for a while and is pretty popular <a href="http://www.gotinder.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gotinder.com</a>

Solve two nearly insurmountable problems and you have a winner:<p>1) Make it impossible to game. 2) Chicken and egg.<p>I have no idea how to solve these problems, but it&#x27;s a concept ripe for disruption if you do.

Adds a whole new dimension to &#x27;fraping&#x27;.
