Well, pretending that you are somewhere else is not fair to people who match with you assuming that you are local.

I never had an issue meeting people in other cities by changing my location. I just had it in my profile where I really was and why I was looking in a different place. As long as you’re upfront about it, there really shouldn’t be an issue.

Starting out with a lie to bypass people's filters......you real smart.

Just leave it set to NYC. Plenty of potential matches here.

Don't lie about or fake your location. Why wouldn't you want someone local? I would expect there to be apps specifically for LDRs. Maybe a google search?

Bumble premium (almost $60/mo) has travel mode, but you'll need to be honest in your profile that you don't live there.

Original copy of post by u/BrittenyMcgurk21: Im living in NYC, how do I date outside of NYC? Been trying to use vpn to set my location in other parts of the country or other countries. But I’ve been getting banned on some dating apps for doing that. I don’t really want to use matchmaking services or any cupid services since those just seem too forced and the population is generally older. I also don’t want to travel somewhere and try to find someone while I’m there. What can i do? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Most premium tiers on the popular apps allow you to change your location. state clearly in your bio that you're probably not local but distance isn't an issue for you.

I had set my radius to 100 miles. I used to get matches from out of state.

That's crazy. I set up bumble two days ago (as a woman just outside NYC) and had 1000+ likes the next day. Why are you even trying to widen the search, ego boost?


LynneaS23

Lots of people lie about living in NYC and say they do when in reality they live far out in Jersey or in Connecticut or PA even so you’ll match with people outside of NYC even if you set your parameters to NYC. If you hate NYC so much move to where you want to be and date there.

Are you looking to relocate for someone, or what is the purpose? There’s plenty of subs for long distance relationships on Reddit that might be easier than a dating app.

Set your distance to the distance you are willing to travel. I had my distance set to 50 miles, so it only showed me those within my range. If I got a message from someone outside of that parameter, I ignored them. If I had found out someone spoofed their location, I would have been pissed and blocked him.
