FAQ
1: What is Ink Between Us?
Ink Between Us is a human-curated introduction service built around letters, patience, and attention.
Instead of profiles, swipes, or direct messages, people are introduced through love letters. Introductions are gently curated by a real person rather than an algorithm and based on your answers to an intake questionnaire.
- No ghosting
- No personal contact details until you both give consent
- Privacy protected
- Freedom to opt out without explanation or penalty
2: Are There Bots, Fake Profiles, or AI Personas?
No. Every participant is reviewed and vetted by a real human. Introductions are offered deliberately, not generated automatically.
3: Am I Guaranteed a Match?
No. Ink Between Us does not guarantee you a match. We offer thoughtful introductions shaped by care, time, and Heart(s) Over Hype. Learn more about non-guarantees policy.
4: What Am I Paying For?
You are paying for an Introduction based on human judgment, care, and time. When the Introduction is complete, the transaction is complete. Ink Between Us steps out of the way.
5: What Is an Introduction?
An Introduction is a thoughtful, human-curated attempt to connect you with another participant who seems like a good fit based on the information you’ve shared. It involves the time, judgment, and care required to review both parties, establish the connection, and, if accepted, facilitate the initial letter-based exchange. The intention is to bring two people together with respect, privacy, and consent.
6: What If I Say No?
Saying no is always allowed and always respected. When you purchase an Introduction, you are paying for a thoughtful, human-curated attempt. If an Introduction is offered and you choose to decline it, that Introduction is considered used. Ink Between Us does not penalize you for declining, but it does not re-run or replace the attempt. The value lies in the care and judgment applied.
7: What Happens If We Both Say Yes?
If both participants accept an Introduction, letters continue to be exchanged through Ink Between Us. After two letter exchanges, both people are asked whether they consent to receive each other’s contact details. Contact details are shared only if both people say yes. At that point, Ink Between Us steps aside. If either person does not consent, the Introduction concludes respectfully.
8: Is There a Subscription or Recurring Fee?

9: What Do the Words Ink Between Us Uses Mean?
- Introduction
An Introduction is a thoughtful, human-curated attempt to connect you with another participant who appears aligned based on the information you have shared. It involves the time, judgment, and care required to review both parties, offer the connection, and, if accepted, facilitate the initial letter-based exchange. An Introduction is not a guarantee of love, chemistry, compatibility, or continuation. It is the intentional act of bringing two people together with privacy, consent, and respect at the center. - Exchange
An Exchange is a limited, letter-based correspondence facilitated by Ink Between Us after both participants accept an Introduction. An Exchange consists of up to two rounds of written letters sent to an Ink Between Us PO box to protect privacy and preserve consent. An Exchange is limited to two rounds, at which time both parties will need to consent to share contact details. - Intake
The Intake is a thoughtful questionnaire completed before any invoice is sent. It is designed for a human to review rather than an algorithm, and provides the information needed to curate a potential Introduction. - Offered Introduction
An Offered Introduction is a specific, anonymized proposal presented to you based on the Intake. Once an Offered Introduction is presented, it is considered a paid attempt, whether it's accepted or declined.
10: What's So Special About 143?
