Deleting dating apps, how soon is best?

[Anonymous]

My friend has been seeing this guy for a few weeks (3/4) weeks and he has recently made her his girlfriend.

we thought this was a bit quick but she seemed happy so left her to it

However, we recently saw him pop up on hinge, so he still has a profile. We thought this was odd as we assumed if he had made her his girlfriend surely he would delete the app/profile

he was introducing to his work friends as his girlfriend, which makes it weirder. She has deleted the app completely but seems like he hasn't

are we over thinking

The situation in a nutshell:

• * Your friend's new boyfriend still has an active Hinge profile, even though he's called her his girlfriend.
• * This is a major red flag, suggesting he's not fully committed.
• * Your friend needs to talk to him directly about it and assess his response.
• * It is not overthinking to be concerned.

No, you are not overthinking. She should ask him about it.

If she deleted the app how did she find him on hinge?

Oh sorry, I did, i’m single and on hinge so saw him come up on there. She’s not on hinge anymore

I am not on Hinge, but a lot of dating apps have a setting to hide your account without deleting it. Does that exist on Hinge or is it just delete your account?

You can ‘hide’ your profile by pausing it so it doesn't come up for new people, so you can do that if you want a break but dont want to delete the account. His profile still shows to bew people

Sounds like he is looking for a side chick; if he doesn't have one already.
