11 moDespite the hatred people mention they have for them, the fact is dating apps CAN and DO work. My brother found his partner of 7 years on Tinder and they get married next year.
My mom also found her partner on an ancient dating app she's not even sure exists anymore. They've been together for... since I was around 13ish I think?
Dating apps can be trash because they're a reflection of the people in society. There's a lot of people out there we would not date. But the fact is, they give you more options than if you were to hit a local bar. And that's part of the reason why people (particularly women) are so damn picky nowadays. Because they have option paralysis. And when they're so desensitized to all the profiles, their standards might get a little too high. And they always try to aim for the top 10% of men.
So sure, use dating apps, but if you want a lasting relationship, give some serious thought about how you should filter your partner.11 Reply
Asker11 moYea that’s the conclusion I came up with as well… cuz I know people who have met through dating apps and are getting married soon ig it’s only worth it if you are intentional on why you are on them to begin with

u 11 moWhether dating sites are a realistic possibility depends on the particular site, your age range, and how you approach the experience. I am married now to a woman who I met in December 2020 on zoosk. com. Before meeting her, I found other women who were good dating partners.
Yes, there are some "bad" people on those sites, also. But if the alternative is to go to clubs and bars to meet women, I don't think that will be an improvement. Remember, every person you meet on those sites does not need to meet your criteria; you only need one good match to become a long term partner.

Not really. For me at least, the interest and novelty of it kinda wore off, so I really struggle to actually want to try and talk to people on the apps.
I'm also just not currently interested in the types of connections that are most easily made on the apps at the moment. Casual sex with a stranger just isn't all that appealing, but most dudes on the apps aren't interested in too much more. Which like, you do you, I just don't want you to do me at the moment, ya know?
Overall it's too much work to comb through who's honest, who's safe, who's actually interesting to talk to/can hold a conversation, who's looking for the same thing etc. most of the time.
But hey, if your goal is casual sex, they're fine. Using them for actual romantic dating is pretty hit or miss (with an emphasis on miss lol)

Some people have been able to find their partner on it but personally I prefer meeting real in real life I guess for dating app I would say that if someone is talking with you for 1 week but refuse to meet you irl then it's a bad news and better to find someone else as some people just use it to find boredom.
Meet the person fast in a safe / secure place in public anyone dragging it out is more than likely just doing it cause theyre bored or want an ego boost be careful though cause most are cheater or into ons in those apps.

If it’s hookups you seek, it might be more productive, but once you filter out the fake profiles, scanners, unserious attention seekers and the head cases, there often isn’t much left, and that’s before you even consider compatibility.

11 moNo many people there are either not serious, wanting sex, or people that are desperate who nobody really wants. Not saying everyone but most those people don’t last long on dating sites. You

11 moI've never used them or had any good friends that did. I did know a couple guys that used them for basically hooking up with girls, no strings, so, my opinion is, it would probably be hard to find anyone that wants a meaningful long-term relationship.

11 modating apps as most of the other apps are trying to earn money... so if the ultimate goal is getting money from you I don't think it's worth it :D

11 moNot really. Sometimes some find someone on there but mostly it's just a waste of time. I only know 2 couples that have met on a dating app. Everyone else met mostly through mutual friends or work or uni/school.
But you should try for yourself, if you want to.00 Reply 2K opinions shared on Dating topic. Let's just go straight to the point. Dating apps make money from their subscriptions. If you find someone, you leave the app and stop paying.
They have no interest in you finding someone, because they'd lose a customer.
So no, they're not worth it.10 Reply
Anonymous(45 Plus)11 moWorth what? I think dating apps are OK if you treat them mainly as entertainment. My advice to guys has always been to take every woman you talk to on them with a grain of salt. And chase every woman you meet of them with a shot of penicillin. Guys need to understand the sheer number of women on there that are packed with STD's.

m 11 moI've never tried them before... so I can't really tell, but I am sure that they would work differently for different people... and it is the people themselves that make it worth it, or themselves worthy...

For men it's a scam where 2 million swipes will get you maybe 20 responses and 2 meet ups with them ghosting you
