My dating site sets you up based on photos of your hands – it’s a sign you’re matched sexually, my man & I had fireworks
FORGET swiping left or right — a new dating site is matching couples based on the compatibility of their hands.
The founder had deleted all her dating apps and was about to give up dating for good when she discovered the formula for success and met her dream partner.
"When I was single and a frequent Tinder user, I often found myself asking for pictures of men's hands, and I didn’t know why," said Triin Randloo, 40, from Estonia.
"I wouldn’t go on a date with them unless I liked their hands. It was so weird.
"Around this time, I was working with specialists worldwide who have expertise in the human body and its functioning.
"I discovered there was a connection between various body parts and hand proportions, which provided insights into potential physical compatibility.
"This explained why I was obsessed with men’s hands."
Triin developed a program that matches people’s sexual compatibility based on their hand shape and proportion.
Based on her research, she created 21 compatibility formulas, which include finger length, hand span, and other measurements.
Using that, she developed a site so people could apply her research to dating.

A HAND AT LOVE
At the same time, she spotted Alex Vest, 49, on Tinder, which she had re-joined to start marketing the site.
She had seen him before on Facebook but hadn’t approached him because he was married.
When she saw him on Tinder, she messaged him and asked if he was married.
"I don’t touch other ladies' property," she said.
“Things have changed,” he replied, and they met the next day.
Their following date was a lunch that turned into dinner, but they didn’t kiss.
Triin went away on a work trip, and while she was away, she messaged Alex about her research, and he tried it out.
THERE'S AN APP FOR THAT
Triin has turned her research into the site SizeHim, which allows people to find their perfect match by scanning their hands.
Users get one free scan, which provides them with a match and profile, after which the subscription costs €2.99 (around $3.26) a month.
"SizeHim adds value when using dating apps or going on dates," she said.
"If you ask for a picture of a man's hand, it speeds up the process of determining if you have a physical match and what’s in the pants.
"It is important to note that it is not the size of the hand that is important; it’s the proportions."
"The main thing is that your hands are similar, then you somehow feel the connection," she explained.
"It is proven that if your body proportions are similar — for example, your hands, feet, legs — then you are better matched sexually," she insisted.
HER HEART'S IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND
Her research has found that there are seven different types of hands, which correspond with the seven different types of penis shapes: the pencil, the pepper, the cone, the banana, the hammer, the sausage, and the cucumber.
All of these are divided into small, medium, and large.
"When I saw Alex’s hand, I knew, and the program confirmed us as a good match," she said.

"When we met again and slept together, it was fireworks.
"We moved in straight away and have been together every day ever since.

"I knew it was love straight away, and when I saw his hand, that just confirmed things. When you know, you know.
"We are now deeply in love, very happy, and are looking forward to growing old together."
