Is Tinder basically still a "hookup" app or has it improved or not recommended?

[MyasiaJ]

I have only downloaded Tinder twice in the past and I know you get people real close to your radius, but I am not really into a hookup and trying Bumble once again. I heard before people just go on Tinder for one night stands or something which I don't know if Tinder is really that way still in 2019. I heard Hily came out but they distance they have to a minimum is men from away from my state, which is kinda skewed for long distance relationships or meet and greet thing.

I know I'll probably be seeing guys within my university range with this app is I decide to try it out once again, but I'm worried with the hookup part.
Thoughts or ideas?

Yea, Tinder still is

No not really

I'm not really sure

I don't use Tinder/ I use other apps

It depends on your location for tinder. If you are near a college city then you may have some luck finding something on there but most will be hook ups.

If you want something you can not be really nervous about look up from your phone. There will be guys checking you out constantly at college and you will be approached quite often. You will have the most confident and experienced ones come first. Then you go from there. But to be honest with you nothing is ever over when it comes to relationships with people.

I may be one of the only users in here who has never used it. Frankly, I got tired of POF's shenanigans too. And what sites like ChristianMingle want? Nuts. I'm dirt poor, here. I want someone who is WIFE material; not a meaningless one night stand. And after the gal from China, who was cut off from me by the crazy president they have there, my standards have never been higher. And a good thing too. It's kept me away from a lot of abusers.

I didn't use Tinder for a quick. hook up. I haven't used Bumble for a hook up either. I used both so I could meet someone outwith my town as I want to meet people from somewhere new and hopefully leave here behind and start a life elsewhere!

I would say it's quite diverse. You'll find people who just want to hook-up or find an friends with benefits, but you'll also find people looking for something more serious.

Yes it is. One girl I had a nice conversation with on a proper date and gave her a hug. She canceled date 2. Another girl I had a date with but talked about sex. Now she says she wants sex on Saturday. Being a gentleman for a total of 2 girls so far has gotten me nowhere. Being sexual and flirtatious is the best way to go on tinder. Luckily, im fine either way. Im down for just fucking or a relationship.

Tinder is absolutely a hook up app. Don't be fooled.

If you are in college, you are in the best possible situation to meet single guys your age that you will ever have, so meet some IN PERSON and you will be so much better off.

Online dating is overrated anyway. It has all those negatives and very few positives. Literally the only advantage is that you can get in touch with people you might not otherwise get to know. But quite frankly, go out. The world is your oyster and its not difficult to get talking with people at all.

[WishfulThinker21]

Havnt used tinder in a long time as well but I would think its just used for to hookup for a one night stand. I know some people will use it to start a relationship and such but I would feel like it would be hard to find or even trust someone on there lol

Tinder is mostly for hookups

If you're in university, don't even bother with a dating app. Plenty of cute guys on campus.

[cavmanier]

It's mostly for hookups and if you find a guy that is interested in a relationship, most likely he was doing hookups too.

[DiamondHu]

Tinder is both in my opinion, you can get a hookup and a realationship there. But getting a hookup is easier.

[jabbahut]

It’s mostly still a hook up and it’s very unlikely you’ll find much on it especially if your a guy...

[KristaGrym]

It's an app to fill fragile egos of so called the beautiful people and to fulfill the sexual needs of persons who their only purpose on life is to fuck and being rich... so most of you all ;)

[Hypnos0929]

It certainly can be but for most men it isn't. There are too many fake profiles, abandoned profiles and the like and even if you do get matched there's very few women who will hook up due to how dangerous it can be for themselves.

[Annajamey]

Yes, it is still hookup app for people, you can also find serious dating if lucky.

[SarahsSummer]

I don’t know of anyone with half a brain and looking for a relationship to use tinder.

[westwordbound]

It didn’t start that way but it is now.

But now all I see is prostitutes, social justice warriors, fake accounts, girls looking for Instagram followers, girls looking for sugar daddies, etc.

[SquidwardsmellsGOOD]

Tinder is for desperate men who go to put women on pedestals any man who goes on tinder is a fool

[Bman4907]

All tinder is an app that makes it easier for people to judge others and ignore most of the population that doesn't meet their "standards."

[joethemoe912]

I met 5 girls on it that actually went for more than just one date. My girlfriend now and I both met on tinder over a month ago

[gym4ever]

Well i had some experiences with tinder but i never had tinder hook up. Probably depends where you live.

[Rangers]

No, it's an attention site for girls and a self esteem killer for guys

[crazy8000]

Depends where and age how many that's after just sex.

[AngelBritney]

I heard it uses a lot of fake profiles. But besides that, I think it's still for hook ups.
