And no, I still don't want to use them even if a friend of a friend met her SO on Tinder and she is so happy right now.
I hate dating apps, I've tried Tinder and Bumble and every single guy I met there has been trash (all of them looking for a bangmaid, coffee dates, lovebombing, etc) and I hate how my friends always try to sell me the 1 in 1000 "success story" from a girl that that met her husband through dating apps and she is happily married now.
I swear that for every "success story" from this there 1,000,000 bad dates and bad experiences and I'm tired of everyone suggesting them to me, I prefer to be single forever than to be back on that rodeo.
Burn them all...
And there’s nothing more frustrating than knowing these men on OLD are just mindlessly and desperately swiping on profiles all the time. How am I supposed to be comfortable going on dates with a guy that I know was doing this on the way to our date, and even after the date? I was lucky I met my current HVM on Hinge but we both agree we wish it never began that way…
I think dating apps feed male entitlement. You want a shot with women, then get out there and start trying to impress us!
Yeah, I enjoy meeting men more organically. It’s more fun to meet a man in real life and to experience that wonderful moment of connection.
So I had a conversation with a friend how I feel that online dating seems like I'm shopping for humans and his response was "Well....isn't that the point?" I felt so grossed out by his response. It's not the same as meeting someone at the groceries and having that true moment of a genuine connection. human connection.
I would rather feel lonely than be seen as merchandise for sex.
I was on dating apps for a year and left in March (just before I found FDS). It never occurred to me until I left how much of a toll it took on my mental health. I found I was trying to confirm to a space that just didn’t sit well with me. I’ve never been so happy being off of it. And I honestly don’t want to go back. I’ve made the decision that I’ll meet my HVM in person or not at all. Either way I’ll be happy and I’m giving these scrotes less access to me and no FAP material. I literally had a guy in a video chat on the app lick his lips when he first started talking to me. 🤢 Yuck!! Never again
🔥burn them all🔥
I tried it last month but nada so far. I feel like they are all just bored or waiting for me to be 'sexual' its sad.
We are all having similar experiences so that leads me to believe the problem is men not women. I could have written that word for word. I'm too exhausted to relive all the mental and emotional trauma to write it all down. I think there's a growing number of women going solo and stress free. When abuse is all that's available, what's the point. Men are going to have a massive problem in the future.
Literally full of trash. 🤷🏻♀️
My sister met her NVM on tinder…the “resting actor” who lets her work all the hours god sends and pay FOR EVERYTHING. So, yeah... is that success? For me it’s gotta be a no.
Sorry if I'm late to this post - I was lurking here as someone who used to frequent the FDS sub and use it here and there. But the notion of OLD (online dating) does preoccupy me at times. I do not have ONE iota of desire to do OLD. NOT ONE. I just don't feel like it at all. I'm NOT interested in putting my picture on the internet for weirdos, who I don't know from Adam, to come meet up somewhere.
I found this under Similar Posts.
Anyway who is to say that a supposed Success Story will REMAIN a Success Story, right?
I d on t want to get back on them either, but I don't have much of a social life so I have no idea how to to meet guys
