    Dating apps are lame. Majority are for hookups which if that's what you are looking for, that's fine. Large number of people don't develop long term relationships from it. People move on after 1-3 dates, constantly looking for the next shiny thing. Before the whole dating app culture, there's more time spent to know someone and the people I know who had long term relationships or married are the ones who dated for a while (only one on one) and then let the relationship grow. It's not instant matching, text for a few days, have a couple meetups, and then the one appears. Just not organic. Dating culture today is exhausting.

      After 30+ years of meeting a BONKLOAD of individuals over those decades, I cannot honestly say that more than 1-3% of them were ethical, sane, inspiring, awesome people. It's unfortunate, but that's how it is (or whatever... how it WAS). I'm not even talking about dating specifically, either. Just people; everyone en-masse. Narrowing that disaster down to "females I'd like to date who are within a 60-120 mile radius" is clearly as close to the number known as "0" as one could imagine. :)

    A friend of mine was telling me about his experiences with Bumble and Tinder and so forth. Half joking around, he requested his data from one of 'em--you know, all the "swipes", clicks, views, matches... whatever. He was bloody well SHOCKED to see that he'd "swiped" something to the tune of 30,000+ images (or accounts or whatever) over the years. And obviously, there were the "no thank yous" as well. I'm certain you can guess as to how many legitimate matches he told me he'd experienced.

    Most dating apps are just away for women to boost their ego. They just sign up to read the compliments and rarely bother responding. The only legit ones are the ones where women and men both have to pay to join. If the woman is paying for the service it means shes genuinely wanting to meet someone. The ones that charge men and allow women to use it for free are mainly used by women that need a confidence boost or they are just bored and killing time.

Discussing dating app fatigue opens up a lot of meaningful conversations about finding balance in our digital and personal lives.
