I’ve learned dating apps are garbage. It sucks having to tell people about yourself every week. Meeting people in person is way better even though it’s harder it seems more genuine and real

@pubesinteeth7049 9 месяцев назад

Treating people like AI is horrifying in reality

@shaniadeblois 9 месяцев назад

I 100% agree with you that meeting people in real life and creating actual connections is far more interesting that swiping through profiles

@theguynextdoor4978 8 месяцев назад

The business model behind it is to keep people single in order to not lose cash flow. Another thing is called "the paradox of choice". Which means that too many options leaves people confused and unable to make a choice. Like a guy named Barry Schwartz said in his ted talk: Imagine being a business owner, and you give your employees 50 different investment offers. More options sounds like a good thing. But it had the opposite effect. Fewer employees invested, and were left scratching their heads not knowing what to choose. Same applies to dating apps.

@doublebuttamaui 9 месяцев назад

My biggest problem with apps (not that there aren't tons) is that you can't know if you have any real type of attraction or connection by sending a few texts and glancing at a carefully curated profile. I need to see someone IRL and see their smile and see if we actually have a spark or connection.

@shaniadeblois 9 месяцев назад

couldnt agree more! Real connection is soooo important

I deleted mine after meeting a guy who wasted one month of my time and then changed his mind saying he doesn’t know what he wants. I feel so deflated as I finally like someone after 9 month. I feel like dating for me is an interview. I feel so defeated dating and so done. I want a child but I might even consider artificial insemination I don’t think dating is for me I’m so done!

@clarissaamiata1448 25 дней назад

Omg this happened to me too! After over a month he says this shit. I think if you pay close attention in the beginning they will give clues if they are emotionally available or not. You just have to pay attention and avoid the avoidants. I realized too late because I was blinded by the love bombing.

Women don't need dating apps. The women who are on dating apps don't grow their social skills, and often don't have social skills with the opposite sex. Men on dating apps tend to be either desperate or they are players.

@DeadCat-42 8 месяцев назад

Took less than three weeks for dating apps to convince me to give up on dating entirely. I was tex a wife and children. I thought if I work on myself and be the best me I could be that would happen. Im tall , keep fit, have a good family, good friends a career and a house I bought at 26. Like MOST men, I've totally given up. I must have messaged a dozen women, no reply. So I deleted the apps and gave up. That was years ago, at this point I just avoid women. Just thinking about it makes me sad. Oh well, at least I have lots of friends I. The exact same boat. I don't know what women are doing, the ONLY guy I know dating is a total player who should be avoided .

@shaniadeblois 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for sharing your story. I am so sorry to read that you too have been disappointed by dating apps.. I guess we are all in the same boat as you said. Friends do make a difference and it's important to surround ourselves with good ones! ❤️

@DeadCat-42 8 месяцев назад

@@shaniadeblois oh yeah, the apps left me with low self esteem and just plain depressed. Then my friends started telling me they ALL went through the same. I know these a really great people. They are the best guys , but they are just as single and just as depressed about dating.. If the BEST men are giving up and only the worst men , the players and conmen are the ONLY guys successful at dating Men and women will both be left alone and sad. Which is exactly what is happening. We told the boys that they shouldn't. The good ones listened and stopped dating.

@specialiseesi6746 8 месяцев назад

Same here. I got my own paid off apartment, make good money, in my 40s and there’s no reply from women. Deleted my apps about 2 years ago and not looking back. I’m meeting WAAY BETTER girls in person, through friends, facebook and going back to old acquaintances.

@MA-rn2xp 6 месяцев назад

I've never been a fan of dating apps however I decided to try it and 4 months later I was already fed up. I deleted them a week ago. So over it. For someone like me looking for some real deep and long lasting dating apps are not it. That's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

@DeadCat-42 6 месяцев назад

I know part of it is just the demographics of the area, there seem to be few women. Part is a change in dating. A few of my friends are single dads. I hit 30 and realized that if I meet one women a year and managed to get a date, and then manage to get a second date (less than %50) what are the chances i'd find someone Id want to form a relationship with, much less get married and have a child with by 35? and it's not like you're going to just go hi let's get married and have children. That takes time. And CHOICES, a selection of people to meet and chose from. And that's what is missing for men in dating. Women, have abundant choices, but can't even decide what they want to eat. @@specialiseesi6746

@evanbalch222 Месяц назад

I gave up on the dating apps too. I don’t think they really showcased who I was as a person very well, and I always attracted the wrong kind of attention. Honestly, I’m way happier, but I’ve had to be very conscious that I’m now responsible for curating my social life and I have to step out of my comfort zone a lot to meet new people. As a whole though, my confidence has gone way up, but I definitely have less, but higher quality dates.

@aaron2295 9 месяцев назад

I'm a guy, 36 and never really had a romantic relationship. I was pretty close a few times. A good portion is my fault, I am pretty self aware, good at making people laugh, pretty financially successful, but I have Aspergers and have a very hard time with people in general. It takes a lot of energy and I have pretty low self esteem very critical of myself. I never had success with dating apps. I was much more successful befriending women I went to High school with, once I was in my mid 20s. But most of them had massive personal issues. I gave up entirely for a while. My new strategy is to try and build up my network of female friends and eventually start asking if they know anyone that might be interested in me. Most my guy friends have 100% given up and only 3 are married.

@piotr004 8 месяцев назад

Exactly. I am an almost 29 guy and also - nothing romantic. Zero. I had no problem communicating with women, but their standards are so unrealistically high, it's impossible absolute majority of men (statistics proves it). It's "funny" how women complain the dating scene is "unhealthy" while it's women who make it unhealthy most of the time. It's enough to just log in and even an average woman will get a lot of attention.

@aaron2295 8 месяцев назад

Because women on dating apps have gravitated to the top 15% or so of men on them and its potentially reflected in the dating market at large. Part of me wonders if that 15% were hypothetically monogamous that the dating market would have a large correction and it wouldn't be as difficult. Probably wont happen, but nice to think about. I have a major fear that our generation and gen Z are going to end up with huge portions of it never married or in any romantic relationship at all. Could take a generation to fix what went wrong @@piotr004

People that respect themselves don’t subject themselves to being bought and sold based on numbers that are usually distorted anyway. I’ve never met anyone who got married from a dating app. Quite literally the most destructive thing you can do to yourself psychologically.

@patricknichols4670 8 месяцев назад

I think it's normal to go on/off the dating apps...just as we take breaks from dating in general. It's easy to forget that results on those sites have no relationship to whether or not we are date-able. For what its worth, i think there's value in trying to take some little nugget of knowledge from each circumstance we get into

@jasonmatthews504 8 месяцев назад

I was told that when it comes to dating apps, ‘men are in a desert and women are in the ocean.’ In other words it is hard for most men to find dates as 80% of women are only interested in 20% of the men; it is easier for women to get dates, yet the end up not going well. I find it is better to meet the opposite sex doing group activities. I started a Salsa class a few weeks ago and it find it more easier to get to know women as we rotate around the room and dance with different partner and we get acquainted with one another. I would not stop dating apps if you are getting dates, but I would advise to start more hobbies that you are really interested in to meet the opposite gender. In this way before any date will happen you get to know someone for a little while.

@mobydick3895 8 месяцев назад

Shania, if you think dating apps are bad, count yourself lucky, at least you are a woman. For women, dating apps work, you pick a guy and it is that guy you will go out with. For men, it is nearly impossible, as most women don't respond, and even if they do, they flake. Zero dates is a high likelihood for most men on dating apps. It is just a big big rip-off.

@shaniadeblois 8 месяцев назад

I have heard that before and I totally agree. Is is hard for everyone to date nowadays. Both men and women (for different reasons). I've had this conversation with friends of all gender and we all agreed that dating sucks. I think the key here (for both sides) is patience, an open mind and authenticity! What do you think? 😉

@AAPAI_24 8 месяцев назад

I don’t know how many times I have heard this. It’s totally untrue and a myth perpetuated online. The fact that we may get guys giving a ‘like’ doesn’t mean we like those guys. Out of thre ones we like back, the majority are just wasting time and another sub-section just want to pass the time. Then there are the truly damaged who shouldn’t be allowed to go online alone and afterwards, the real creeps who will take any chance to abuse and harass. Shall I go on? I am an attractive woman, educated, fit and healthy and healthy and with everything going for me. You may think I can take my pick. The reality is that apart from one guy (who happened to live at the other end of the world and was visiting my city), the rest were either too damaged and unhinged or simply just passing time and hoping to get laid. That’s hardly an advantage for any self-respecting woman. Sorry to hurst your humble: you are not a victim. It’s just a rigged system that exacerbates the worst traits of modern dating: impatience, shallowness, objectification and desperation (for both genders). I was on dating apps for two years: I had much more productive encouragers and relationship before and my life has started to improve massively since I deleted them again three months ago. We are not catalogue items to be perused

ah, yes, the I'll just take a break from dating stage. Then you blink and 10 years has passed. Dating is a pro-active activity. Unless you're one of the lucky ones you can't just expect the love of your life to just bump into you, and immediately recognize you as "the one". Dating apps are useless because people are getting rejected for superficial reasons, and without due deliberation. One moment of doubt, and its "NEXT!". The real question is why did you reject the people you met, and how long did it take you to reject them. Generally if you reject them after the first date because they were "ordinary" and you secretly see yourself as "extraordinary" then you're probably going die alone.

@ryandeffley7652 8 месяцев назад

If I had to pick one thing I dislike on dating apps it'd be that women are way too goal oriented now. Every conversation seems like you're on a job interview. 😂 It was the subtle shift of "want a man but don't need one" that turned everything upside down. So now a woman has to grill men about their intentions and try to lead to get what she wants vs being vulnerable and needing a man's approval. This is why men are having a hard time investing emotionally in long term relationships and why sex is the main focus. It's the rare woman who can be feminine, submissive, and admit that she needs a man who gets commitment and a ring.
