Jules72 rhouses Tinder’s pretty crap tbh…. lots of sugarbabies looking for a “daddy”, and generally low quality women… the higher quality women gravitate to Bumble and Hinge these days
rhouses Jules72 I know the digital marketing head for Bumble in India, seem to be doing really well here. Classy corporate women who aren’t dependent on men for anything monetary. Would be interesting to hear about your experiences Jules, surely ‘the game’ has been turned on its head with COVID and all.
Jules72 rhouses apparently lot of people coming out of relationships post lockdown - latter just accelerated the demise of some… I’m hearing from mates that people are definitely dating and it’s easier when the weather’s good as it is here generally at mom… come September and October, and the second wave, fck knows! Anyway, I’m optimistic - first time since my divorce that I haven’t had shit weighing on me….
Smallman1 When mysinglefriend first came about I went out on loads of dates and had tonnes of success, was filling my boots left, right and centre. I had a fair few reg’s too though.
Jules72 There was a point at which I was going on a couple of dates a week and getting really tired of it tbh…. I’m pretty polite to women so if I turn up and I know instantly I’m not into her, I won’t let on and I’ll stay for a drink…. got a mate who checks them out from 20-30 metres and makes a run for it if he doesn’t like the look of what he sees 😂
LT42 I’ve met a few bunny boilers on Tinder and some crackers too, its a minefield no matter what way you attack it. Getting married next year myself but if I was still single I’d be getting a bit more adventurous at my age - like going to Colombia and getting involved in cocaine orgies. They’re the kind of memories you’ll appreciate when you’re 75. Not dating headcase divorcees who find the pin to your phone by the track marks on the screen and then go on to send threatening messages to your ex. (Yeah, that happened.)
Jules72 LT42 think Tinder has gone downhill the last couple of years tbh… as for the orgies, of course 😛…. I know this sounds very fluffy but imo most of us are wired to enjoy sex with someone we know well rather than strangers - the thrill of casual sex dies when you’ve had enough of it
Smallman1 Met a proper bang tidy personal trainer on MYSF. She was really sound too, a top top Doris. What happened I hear you ask? I went travelling round Central and South America for 8 months and it was curtains.
Kells77 I’ve tried most….all are horrendous. I liked Bumble best because the women have to make the first move, but there are creeps and weirdos on all platforms. I’m still on and off again with someone I met on Plenty of Fish, but he’s still back in Florida, so we’re sorta on a break now. Honestly, I just don’t have the energy to deal with that swamp at the moment. I’m on an indefinite break from “dating”.
Jules72 Found the quality of women on Plenty of Fish dire… probably a UK thing. These apps are hard work though, especially for blokes - you need to stand out.. just saying “Hi how you doing” is going to get you nowhere.

Wally Bumble was started by a lass who used to be on the Tinder board of directors but got forced out by the blokes. Trufax.
