Yeah I know dating apps bad etc
I paid 17 dollars for the week pass allowing me unlimited likes 💀 of course because I’m desperate and they force you into that choice because using it for free you only get 5 free likes a day lmao. The problem is NOBODY fucking responds back to my messages, I’ve had 2 conversations out of 20 matches, one of the convos died after I asked them out, the other convo just ended abruptly for no apparent reason. It’s really demoralizing to say the least but I just don’t understand, if they don’t like me and accidentally sent a like they should just unmatch right away but they don’t.
The future is grim. How does anyone meet anyone anymore?
You have to just find 1 friend with a healthy social life and everything becomes instantly easier since you’ll regularly meet their friends,
Guess I need to find better friends because I have a couple of these and I’ve never met any of their friends lmao
This is all true and what I figure to be the case too. Just feels like maybe I don’t truly vibe with anyone and that I’m just the token “weird” friend.
Then again, a couple of them have also said they’d introduce me to some potential dates but then just never brought it up again so idk.
I don’t know myself. To be honest, I just gave up on the prospect of having a family and currently skillmaxxing to cope. But I find that it’s easier to find people to talk to and make friends when you have something to accomplish or just do together, like college, some random classes, gardening club and such. And sometimes you know, friends might become more than friends. Or might not. Wouldn’t hurt to try, eh?
I have 0 friends and been living in NYC for three years. I’m losing my mind lmao
What are your hobbies? There is almost certainly a group that meets regularly to do something you like
Dating apps make money by creating feelings of loneliness and desperation, and then selling you a promise of connection. But if they actually delivered, then you wouldn’t be a repeat customer, would you? That’s why dating apps are a pit of despair, I wouldn’t recommend them.
ban dating apps. all people must only meet at cracker barrel and approved walmart parking lots
i met my girlfriend on tinder. i’ve had multiple dates before off other dating platforms as well. facebook dating seemed the easiest to match with and talk to real people but that was back in its beta mode so i can’t speak for how it is now it’s definitely hard tho. especially when sometimes it seems like you’re clicking with someone and they just ghost you. but you’ll find someone you like who likes you too eventually. if i can do it then i think anyone can
I met my gf on Bumble after trying all the different apps. Dating sucks. It sucked before dating apps too. It just sucks different ways and in different intensities now. Don’t take it personally. It’s just the nature of it. Keep trying (not to the point of causing yourself pain) and you’ll find cool people.
For what it’s worth Bumble is what worked best for me. Actually got the most dates out of it.
