Dating apps turn people into commodities. People become a choice, a selection, a product to be assessed for quality. Our humanity is dumped for characteristics judged on a scale of better or worse. I don’t like them.

Also, “pissing in the wind” is hilarious 😆

Online dating is incredibly superficial. It also has its own challenges and requires the right skills. Send more then “hey” but don’t send a wall of text. You also want to say something that shows you read their profile without just simply regurgitating it.

Have you tried being attractive? If so, try to not be unattractive.

But seriously, the dating apps are a numbers game. Keep modding your profile and your approaches and you’ll eventually find a winning combo. When you find a woman that’s in to you, she’ll make it easy.

I had some success early on. But as with everything capitalism has made them worse with time.

They have no incentive to get you a match and have you leave the app, they only want you to subscribe to premium. So anyone not paying for it gets inte tonally screwed over.

Yeah, I never liked them. They’re designed to keep you in their app as long as possible, not to get matched with people you actually vibe with.

I met my fiance through a hookup app, but that was a complete fluke. The app didn’t help me get to know him any better than it did for anyone else I met. It was mostly our time spent together in person that made me fall in love enough to propose. As soon as we started dating, I deleted that app and never looked back.
