My experience on Tinder
Tinder does not work for average guys whatsoever. I was curious enough to pay $60 for 6 month of tinder plus which gives me a boost every month. I got 3 matches the next day and then nothing for a month. Of the 3 matches I got they did not reply to my messages. I asked for a refund but they told me to give it more time aka spend more hard earned dough on their useless service. Their algorithm is optimized to scam average guys out of their money. Do not even bother trying this shit. Same thing with Tantan, OkCupid, Hinge, Bumble. If you are a guy just make money, occasionally approach in real life and get settled down in your 30s. Do not use these online dating services. Fuck this garbage tech company!
Those 3 matches were bots
Are you Indian? My Indian coworkers always complain about not getting any matches.
I don’t think this has anything to do with race, it depends on how the person looks irrespective of race, I’m Indian I get several matches a week, I don’t talk about it at work tho
I agree here but i would like to add a note: If you do get settled down in your 30s, make sure its to a young female 21-25. If you go older you are just getting a used up female that ignored you in their prime and is now looking for a life bailout as their attractiveness declines. So long story short, keep making the bucks and go young. This is the only winning move if you are not attractive. And this is if you want to marry at all. You can keep "dating" chicks if you want if you don't really want to marry.
But the downside is that after she pops out a baby she finds out she needs to "discover herself". Cue messy divorce
Agreed, i do not advocate for marriage in any cases (the male gets no benefit) but OP seems to want that and i don't want to convince anyone of a view they don't support. I'm merely helping op with a view he currently supports.
I’ve gotten over 1000+ matches w/o plus. I can help u out
I recently got pro pictures. It didn’t really improve at all. IMO, Tinder is a fucking scam. Think of it: how do you even verify that they have shown your pic to someone? Also, something pretty suspicious is that I tend to get a match when I give up using the app. These mofos are about engagement so that you end up paying to feel better about your sunk time cost. My hit rate in in-person speed dating is way higher (like 30% like me). In that case I know for a fact that someone saw my face. Not in Tinder.
I have decent success on Tinder. Been using it since 2015. What you say is true, though, about engagement. I have better luck if I use the app sparingly rather than daily. It seems like part of their algo boosts up users than don't use the app as often to entice them to come back. Makes sense, and there's even a real life analogy. The more desperate you are (i.e. the more you're on Tinder) the less success you'll have attracting people (i.e. the less matches you'll get)
I met my husband on Tinder.
It doesn’t help that there are twice as many dudes on Tinder
Depends on where you are. Bay area? Seattle? Forget about it... Transfer to NYC and save your mental health. Or give up on romance in Seattle and save your 💲💲💲
I was assuming Seattle is much better than Bay Area. But reading your reply, it seems not true😅
