So where are you guys finding your dates? Dating websites? work? gym? Night out? I cant seem to find any decent men and literally never ever get any attention when I go out - however get lots on social media etc. Probably because I am always really drunk whenever I am on a night out and that is probably a turn off for most lol. 😂

Tinder and Bumble personally (because I rarely go out), but only to chat the same chat over and over to different ones, they never really materialise into an actual date because they always show their crazy before we get to that stage 🤣 I'm starting to wonder if there are any decent men left 🎻😭😂

Also appreciate this thread, went through a serious break up just before lockdown (end of feb) and spent the first few months of it processing heartbreak while also chatting to guys on hinge I knew I’d never be able to meet anytime soon. I feel they had a similar perspective even if they weren’t going through a break up - lockdown happened so suddenly it became quite lonely by end of March / April. It was nice to be on a dating app just to chat to someone without the pressure to arrange a date hanging over you.

I stopped checking it for a while when I started chatting to my ex (he lives in America , we won’t be getting back together) but i have cautiously returned. Hinge is the only one I can stand. I agree with the 28 year old who felt too old for tinder- I’m 30 andit just doesn’t appeal like it did when I was 24 (nothing like dating apps to make you realise your age, seriously).
I tried bumble immediately after my break up but I’m not a fan of the format at all. Hinge is definitely the best I’ve tried, I like the shared focus on personality for the profile with pictures even if you see a lot of the same attempts at being clever / funny.

it’s not been changed?!

I hate how hinge suggests that you’re compatible with someone and they’re an absolute cretin! Like, no. 🙅‍♀️ Even worse when they have the audacity to like your photo. 😔🤢

Whats the best way to approach someone you like on FB, should I like his posts, follow him or send a friend request?

friend request first and then start liking his things! See if he messages after a few days.:: if he doesn’t just message him yourself! Got nothing to lose

I'm back single.
Back on Tinder

I don't like all the messages tbh and I'm extremely selective. Tinder is very pushy though now I'm in their popular user category they seem to let people get through I have not swiped!

I meet men. Everywhere.. and I mean Everywhere. A bloody pandemic hasn't stopped them lol but good men???????? Ummmmm

How do you meet someone at the gym? I’m a red, sweaty mess 😂 I made eye contact with someone this week there and he looked horrified. Self esteem died there and then
