Women have to message first on Bumble
I know, I went on last night before bed to send him a message and he’d disappeared from my matches 
we’d only been matched for half a day 
I was chatting to this guy for a while, he seemed nice, good convo, and swapped numbers. Then he said would you like to meet up? I assumed for a walk, and he said fancy coming this way (brixton). This would mean me having to get the train, then a tube to meet this guy when i haven’t got a train since March, while he gets to sit at home and wait for me to arrive? So that was my first red flag, very ungentlemanly IMO, why should i have to travel all the way to you. So i said what would we do, there’s nothing open anywhere (trying to call him out cos i knew what was coming but hoping he’d say for a walk) He said ‘yeah nothing to do so fancy coming over next saturday at 8pm and we can have a drink and get to know eachother’. Like wtf does this dude really think i’d go round some random guys house when i’ve never met him before? We all hear the horror stories about murders so that was it for me. Plus the fact he didn’t acknowledge covid so god knows how many girls he’s asked round. I then didn’t reply and blanked him and he messaged again saying ‘obviously that wouldn’t be my first choice but like you said there’s no other option’. No other option?! Delete.

Oh god! I think a lot of guys have tried to work pubs being closed to their advantage by thinking they can get away with inviting a girl straight back to theirs
probs the dream for some guys but I can't help but wonder how successful that is, surely no girl is falling for it?!I know I said I was going to delete the app. But these profiles crack me up.

Reactivated Okcupid because I'm that bored...on my 'looking for' section, I specify I'm not interested in anyone over 30 at the moment. What do I get? Loads of messages from 35 year olds. They are so bleeping stupid it's unreal
he’s sodding liked me again.
His name gives me the ick
I don’t know what the background story is but he gives me partial barbie vag.
He’s liked me 3 times in the space of less than a week! I keep swiping left.
god loves a trier
Well this is a new one
He swiped right for me.
I think I’ll be swiping left.

I will give him one thing.. at least he's being honest and clear about what he wants. I hate it when men clearly want something casual but disguise it as something else
“Sex or sexting”. The sexting part made me laugh.
Maybe I should be flattered he wants to have sex with me.
He’s 34. I would expect a 16 year old to write that. Not a grown man.
He needs to be on a register
Good article in the guardian about the state of things for everyone single or in a non-cohabitating relationship atm! Definitely agree that the current rules are favoured towards people in a classic nuclear family, but equally, I can see it is tough for the gov to branch out from that without compromising lives/overall progress in the pandemic
