What are the dating types?
Single men and woman fall into four types of dating personality types known as Dreamers, Acceptors, Advancers, and Realest. Each personality embodies specific values that are the leading factors in how they choose a partner. When deciding whether to go on a date with someone, and what to do on that date, each personality style approaches the process differently based on what they care about the most.
The Dreamer
Described as romantic and thoughtful, if you are a Dreamer your priorities are reputation and comfort. Dreamers are the most common dating personality type, as uncovered by The Dating Truth. The majority of men and women are Dreamers because of their deep belief in romance and their need for comfort. This means that while most singles want to be swept off of their feet in a whirlwind romance, they also don’t want to get hurt.
Dreamers believe in the fairytale. They are the most likely to say, “I will know the one, when I see them.” They also tend to believe in love at first site. They would like to have their relationships be romantic and similar to what you might find in the movies but they also value comfort, and familiarity. They would rather be in a long-term relationship with someone they know and trust than to date around and test the markets.
Dreamers also prioritize reputation. Due to their belief in the fairytale and their desire for romance, Dreamers are less likely to stray from their “type” or their “lists”. They have a vision of who they want to date, and how the courtship will go, and they are often disappointed when situations don’t go along to plan.
The majority of singles are Dreamers. This is no surprise as most singles tend to rely too much on their vision of their partner instead of their feelings. They tend to be more in their fantasy in their minds, than the reality in the heart.

They value connection, and are always seeking someone with which they can open up to and express themselves to.
