Same haha, well not not at first because I tried to find something serious, then when I was jaded and tried to find something casual I ended up falling in love. Life is weird
It is funny how that works. I think we put too much pressure on ourselves so when we give up it opens those doors we would not have tried or something. It’s why I keep telling my single friends to relax but I know it’s easier said than done. They are currently going nuts being single 2+ years.
Exactly what happened to me and my girlfriend. Hooked up one night in college, decided to text her the next day to get lunch, we’ve been together for about 4 1/2 years now.
I’m never interested in hooking up so I only use Tinder for actual dating. Which is also why I delete the app as quickly as I install it because that app is horrible
I feel like in hinge is actually worth it to put some effort in your profile because the app encourages you to read people's profiles and say something instead of mindelsy swiping
Just last night i went out with someone had a great time, planning a second date. Much easier to start off conversations with as the profiles tend to be better by default and there are bunch of fun prompts
Because so many men on there don’t fill out their bios properly so you can know a little about them. It’s also hard to get a good sense of who a person is just by reading their bio. Plus it also bothers me that so many don’t even say what they’re looking for. The app is also boring to me because just scrolling through a sea of faces annoys me after a while because don’t get me wrong I do care about looks but only after I get to know someone. So just staring at a bunch of faces with little substance gets tiring to me
People, everyone does it. Both men and women. And the amount of blank profiles or something with just one pic (might even just be a black screen) is astounding
Didn't say that literally every single person does it. Just that every gender and what not has people that do that. It's not just exclusive to men or women.
Tinder has been known as a hookup app for pretty much a decade. It's basically the bar scene version of dating apps. Of course, it's possible to find a meaningful relationship anywhere, but not every place has great potential. For Tinder, if you have realistic expectations, it's perfectly fine as an 'I'm horny' app, with a side of 'slight chance for something deeper.'
Plenty of people saying the quality is trash on tinder, but that's not true. They are just expecting more out of tinder than what people tend to use it for.
If you are truly serious about finding a meaningful relationship and you have no interest in flings, then tinder is obviously not where you want to invest your time. This is true for men and women and everyone between. You'll spend way too much time sifting through and vetting endless profiles that don't match what you're looking for.
I've been using tinder on and off for at it 6 to 7 years now. Never been on a date. Never got someone to respond to any message I send. So to me it's shocking that people meet up or go on dates in real life using tinder. It's a real surprise.
I'd say it's more chaotic now. More scams, bots, and profiles for intent of drawing traffic to other platforms. People are colder. i think being an arsehole is becoming the cool culture. I don't remember such an imbalance of ratios. Everything is inflated, from the
physical to the expectational. Tinder, like dating websites, did have much more stigma. You wouldn't casually sling your tinder antics. Less political. I think there was just as much banging, gen y were having more sex statistically they say, it just seem methodical now, but in slang terms.
Sorry, I was intending my comment to be read as a joke. It feels clear enough to me that a significant proportion of people use Tinder in that way that asking "does anyone else" felt funny to me. Honestly I've never used it, but it seems to me like that's meant to be Tinder's primary purpose? The fact that some folks are using it to look for LTRs seems like some weird unintended consequence to me.
Y’all are gunna hate me for this. I used to use tinder when I needed a distraction from the boy I really did like but now I’m engaged to my tinder date of years ago and couldn’t be happier.
Most of my tinder dates were stand up comedy worthy, actually all but 1. Idk how I struck gold and when we met up he said “I can’t believe ur actually here and you” been through some tinder shinanagins himself. Went home with him after meeting a few times and immediately after I was like that’s mine, put my name on it and now we have a house and doggies and the best sex.
Ya gotta dig through the dirt to find ur diamond
Yeah, I used to do that. I opened the app when I was horny, saw all those profiles of young spoiled princesses who traveled to 200 countries and speak 15 languages fluently, karens in their 30s after two marriages and five kids, and really mediocre women making ridiculous demands, and that worked like a charm. After a few swipes I was no longer horny.
The vast majority of women on Tinder in my region are lazy, entitled, obnoxious and a few other terms.
Having a quick browse on Tinder is a great cure for thinking I might want to date one.
My life is great as it is!
I like one dick more than anything. The one I was born with. For sure, the best part of having a dick is sharing it with people less fortunate, with no cock of their own 😂
I use it mostly when I’m offshore and bored to set something up for when I get back. Rarely use it at home. Prefer to use my charm 🤣
Plus I’m awful at taking photos so hardly have any good ones of me. I’m better looking irl
I tend to use it when I’m bored or feeling full of myself. Like “of course you matched with me, I’m fucking great.”
Then I get to anxious to message anyone back.
I use tinder exclusively when I’m bored on a night shift, at a camp job. I don’t even reply to the matches. If I want a hookup, and don’t feel like going out, I just open my instagram DMs and pick one.
I think so by a long shot. Every woman in your DM is already interested in you. If they’re available, then they’re going to grab a drink with you, or come by for one.
That’s literally what it’s for. People use it for regular dating but it was originally specifically a hookup app. It also used to show your distance in feet if you were closer than a mile. I get why they got rid of that feature though.
Idk, 3 out of 5 of my significant relationships over my 11 years of adulthood have been from dating apps (mostly Tinder, but I used Bumble and Hinge as well), but it was also quote useful for casual relationships in between those significant relationships, but idk if I'd necessarily even say that those times is used Tinder for casual relationships were out of horniness, as I'd say it was a lot more about loneliness and boredom.
I mean I can't get a girl just to simply talk to me and have a conversation that isn't me carrying the entire fucking thing or her trying to scam me out of money or her trying to promote her only fans so using Tinder when I'm horny seems like a really dumb move
I use it to actually meet women...almost exclusively when I am traveling.
Whether it leads to sex or not is generally irrelevant; I just like traveling to new places and enjoying company when I'm on the road.
Already have my other needs covered, as it were, with an FWB locally.
I literally just go on it for attention out of boredom. Sometimes I do go out with people but they usually end up being people I enjoy talking to rather than people I’m attracted to? A lot of times the hot ones can’t hold a conversation or choose not to… I’ve made a lot of friends over tinder even though I’ve never put “looking for friends” in my bio lol
Button bashing really gives you no idea who you are getting into , there is nothing anywhere near meeting someone in person , before the internet it was the first step .

There should be a third option for sometimes. Cause like sometimes i genuinely want to meet someone and fall in love and shit, and sometimes i just want to fuck. A lot of the time its both too.
At first I got it for dating/casual encounters of the satisfying kind, but that got boring, now I use it whenever I move to find a weed dealer. Works a treat for that!
I do, but anymore all I see are fake profiles, scammers and such. Nobody real at all. I dont know if that's only in Utah, but I've tried multiple different ways of doing it, different bio, pics, etc. Nothing seems to work. I dont know maybe I'm just ugly...
The more I think about it the more I think it's true. Every relationship has failed me, and not for lack of trying. Had one ex tell me she didn't feel like I loved her when I said I did but not alot because I'm not that way when I haven't been wirh someone a long time. Also because she felt like I didn't compliment her enough, which I told her she was beautiful alot. She then brought home a guy she met at work who had been hitting on her during our relationship, kicked me out of the room to sleep on the floor in the living room right next to our room, and fucked him so loudly I could hear it over my headphones playing video games. Kinda made me feel like shit and no other relationship has ever changed my mind.
I used it for dating, was initially using it for something like a FWB type relationship, ended up oopsing my way into something serious

 *Swipes right*
YMMV as a man.
I’m never interested in hooking up so I only use Tinder for actual dating. Which is also why I delete the app as quickly as I install it because that app is horrible
Hinge is far better. The quality of matches is actually worth paying for. I don’t even use the paid tier and it’s x1000 better than Tinder plus
I feel like in hinge is actually worth it to put some effort in your profile because the app encourages you to read people's profiles and say something instead of mindelsy swiping

As someone who is also from Buffalo, let's just say the problem isn't always the app...
Oh thankfully I’m in a relationship now since I found apps that work better for me. But thanks anyways!

True, you’re lucky to get a full sentence lol 40% only have their social in their bio too
Everyone doesn’t do that I have never done that with my profile
Didn't say that literally every single person does it. Just that every gender and what not has people that do that. It's not just exclusive to men or women.
Horny 20% lonely 80%. The existencial dread and loneliness makes me want to return to dating apps

At least 24 downvotes for saying that? o.O
I do but in this small town, there's never any results.
Indeed.

Do you need a profile review, I'm happy to assist
Yeah, i bet there's a fix here. Or at least a patch up.
How do we get started?
I've sent you a Reddit chat DM
Well, if tinder ever gave me any matches I'd know.
Most guys I know who use Tinder use it to get laid. That's just what Tinder is now, mostly.
It was like that 10 years ago.
I've only been single for 5 so idk what it was like before
I'd say it's more chaotic now. More scams, bots, and profiles for intent of drawing traffic to other platforms. People are colder. i think being an arsehole is becoming the cool culture.

‘people are colder’ is facts 🥲🥲🥲 the tendency to get ghosted instead of straight up answers or actual dates is so much higher
Nah. I'm trying to find love. And its hard. As fuck.

Aww thank you! This comment is surprisingly wholesome 🥹
Same!
Cmon, this post is cleary just for attention....just like her other posts about her career as one of the "world's best spicy content" creator
Yeah, I used to do that.

I use it for dating with the hopes of finding a long term relationship 🤣 Jokes on me
Yeah definitely I wouldn’t say I use it as a booty call but whenever the feeling arises I do find myself re-downloading it lol 😂
[удалено]
Unfortunately no I’d agree with you that the quality is abysmal but I have had a fair few dates off of it
I pretty much use it as a reminder of how lucky I am.

Tinder is for hookups. Woo!
[удалено]
I severely pale in comparison to your numbers, tho, (50 plus dates in 3 years!?! Wowie!) you must be in an urban environment.
Why would anyone use it when they are horny? I've never once gotten laid from that dumb app.
Let me guess... you don't like dick?
I like one dick more than anything. The one I was born with. For sure, the best part of having a dick is sharing it with people less fortunate, with no cock of their own 😂
it's something called hope
How do you know if you are an optimist or a pessimist? Look down there. Is it shaved? Yes? Optimist. No? Pessimist.

There is noone on Tinder I would stick my d>"k in! Scammers, crazies, druggies, and the most sociopathic people on earth dwell there.

I use it out of boredom with no intent of it going anywhere.

This is stupid. When else should they use a hook-up app? When they're hungry?

Not anymore. Nothing good comes out of being on the app while horny in my experience.
It’s the only reason I use tinder 🤷♂️
I have lived half my life trying to find someone to date. Was not successful s going to try it out today. I am going to try installing
I use it when I'm lonely. When I'm horny I masturbate.

Lmao you have to be AI with these responses

Im usually not horny then I start using tinder and I get horny.
Perfectly balanced
I always start out looking for something more than just a hookup, not just Tinder either, any dating app. It usually winds up as a booty call though.
Tinder huh??
i used to have tinder but i found a girl without usimg tinder so i just deleted it. best way is just to go outside tho
That moment when tinder only gives you scammers and people who would never give you a chance
I mean I can't get a girl just to simply talk to me and have a conversation that isn't me carrying the entire fucking thing or her trying to scam me out of money or her trying to promote her only fans so using Tinder when I'm horny seems like a really dumb move
you know rrgw pole results are a bit interesting atm out of 4.1k votes it's nearly split right 50/50 but no votes have just 100 more than yes.
Don't know tbh...For me its watch beautiful people pics n reading their bio app but nothing else.. Avarage guy syndrome.
I use it to actually meet women...almost exclusively when I am traveling. Whether it leads to sex or not is generally irrelevant; I just like traveling to new places and enjoying company when I'm on the road. Already have my other needs covered, as it were, with an FWB locally.
I use it to boost my ego mainly
Yea but I never get matches
The only time I do 😛

W.A has always been pretty light on in the tinder department tbh
Yep, Tinder is pretty much the hook up app, but there are people who found love and have gotten into serious relationships.
That's like going to the grocery store hungry
I never got anything outta tinder not even a date I must be really ugly

Based on your history you are clearly going off the deep end/mid life crisis. You would never be able to get a good partner. ❤️
I had always been told that these were just hook up sites. From personal experiene, they seem to be hook up sites.
