    That’s how I found out I might be a little attractive. Lots of stories about apps being ghost towns and it being hard to talk to people. I didn’t struggle much to talk to people, went on dates and found my now fiancee that way.

      You’re one of the lucky few. I bet online apps are great for attractive dudes with lots of great pictures lol.

        I tried Tinder & Bumble for a few months. Out of the 15 or so matches I got, 13 were fake profiles or lived on the other side of the world. 1 I messaged but she never replied. And the last 1 messaged me a total of 3 times before she stopped talking.

        Waste of fucking time. Deleted my profiles and got off there before I began to feel bad about myself.

        Yea I definitely count my lucky stars. I also didn’t use the main dating apps and stuck with smaller more social dating apps. Found my now fiancee on Boo. Which is marketed as a friend’s and dating app. Never bothered with tinder or the other huge ones.
