Deleted it after some time. It's so stupid. I can't comprehend why people in Japan are even using it. They don't want to even meet up, how fucked up is this. All the worse with all the likes I was getting because it just rubs salt in the wound. Why do you like me if you have no interest, lol. It's annoying as fuck

    If you go on Tinder hoping to find love, you're just wasting everyone's time. It is a hookup app.
    You can rarely find it there though, I'm told.

    That, or there are a ton of bots that swipe right on all people and they have fake pictures and such to try to get you to give them money and scam you. I had an acquaintance that this happened to, and he almost sent money to this person, but he deleted her after he realized he was being duped.

    The simpler--and probably accurate--answer is that they don't like him and thus don't want to meet up with him. What's up with this "blame everyone else, except you" thing? If, of all the people he's been matched with, none have wanted to meet, maybe it's more of him than everyone else.

    Should've swiped left then instead of leading people on just because you can.

    You're not leading people on just by swiping right.

    It's a friggin dating app. Since when was doing anything in a dating app obligate the other person to anything, even respond to a message let alone actually meeting someone?

    Hooking-up requires a lot less effort than maintaining a relationship. There's no pretense of pointless emotional nonsense to bother with.

    If you spend the majority of your free time in trying to find people to have sex with just once, then this explains why the millennials are constantly complaining that they are poor. How you spend your free time is very important with regards to your financial situation.
    Eh? If you're just after a fuck you can pretty much get 1 in less than an hour if you're attractive, hardly much time

    When a few girlfriends and I tried Tinder just for the fun of it- the result was a barrage of non-stop, I mean NON-STOP, messages/dings/alerts from dudes. Most had obviously fake profiles the rest were hideous. After a few hours most of us uninstalled the app.

    No single woman I know personally has reported using these apps or services. I honestly think it's mostly bots and desperate dudes that use these things.
    Probably using shit sites

    Sometimes you swipe then realize they're not as attractive in other pictures

    I hardly use it anymore. I found out not too long ago that my profile was hidden even though I never set it to hidden (there was an option for that). I went to change it and apparently to become visible again you have to pay a monthly subscription for it. They are slowly turning this once free to use app into a service like e-Harmony or Match. So I don't really use it anymore.

    I used Tinder because it was free and it was one of those things where it was like if I got matched up with someone and i managed to set up a date, cool, if not, whatever it's free. It was just something I went on for like 5 minutes swiped a few pictures and then I was done. Now no one is going to be able to see me unless I just happen to swipe right on someone that liked me which is not very often at all.

    It's such bullshit but whatever. Guess I'll have to find the girl of my dreams the old fashioned way...getting out of my house and socialize.

    It was the first time using the app. It was a trial run. We swiped some, gave the sadface/thumbs down to others, etc. The profiles were obviously faked- hence why I said most seemed to be bots.

    Most are scams

    I don't know anyone who admits to even using 'shit sites'. Not a single person I know admits to using any dating/hook-up service at all.

    It might be some people are lying about using these services- but that is HIGHLY doubtful for a number of factors. The least of which is that women tend to talk about two things dominantly; children and relationships.

    Also I have never met another woman in my entire life who professed to having trouble getting laid or finding a date. Having worthy suitors or quality partners- absolutely. But getting a date/screw? Never.

    Well TINDER probably attracts either lazy women or unattractive women but obviously women do use it otherwise it would be a sausage party

    Nah, plenty of very good looking women on tinder who aren't lazy.

    from my experience yes - the "long-term" quality isn't really at Tinder, but then again my experience is a pretty small sample size considering there are what millions of ppl on the app?

    No, not really. That's a myth.

    Only by those who champion "true love" and all that other nonsense. The majority of the effort comes from the relationship. If there's no relationship, there's hardly any effort.
