i would ask you how the other dating websites signal these core values ?

They do not (maybe eharmony?). What leads you to believe they are doing a good job? The challenge is that traditional meeting opportunities have declined (church, friends, third spaces), dating apps took off, but everyone is unhappy that they cannot Uber the person they want.

I dont believe they are doing a good job , my thought process is that my platform would focus more on shared interests rather than these core values

Please report back with findings! Wishing you an enjoyable experiment. People are tricky.
