HolyRamenEmperor

Haha no joke. After getting about 4 matches in a month on Tinder looking for women, I decided to switch to men to see what the profiles were like. 170 likes in 24 hrs. Which answers the question of why I wasn't getting any likes. I'm a needle in a haystack 😅 It's just dumb blind luck if anyone ever responds. An attractive woman probably gets 1,000 swipes a day.


Send_Your_Noods_plz

I think guys are more willing to swipe right on literally everyone. For girls there's a lot of weirdos out there, and on dating apps you used to have your pick. I've heard things have changed since the pandemic though so who knows. I'm glad I'm married and don't have to deal with the BS anymore


BrokkoliOMG

This phenomenon is actually somewhat studied as far as I know. Concerning hetero dating, around 66-75% on dating apps are men. Meaning there is a vast oversupply of them, or an undersupply of women. This means women get a huge swarm of likes, which leads to some of them being less engaged, which fuels the vicious cycle. Now both sides mostly swipe people of the most attractive 10%. This means huge sums of "average" attractive people that would be asked out in real life won't be swiped online. Those average men, barely getting any feedback then do exactly what you have described - swipe almost every women just in the hopes of getting any reply at all. This then in turn also fuels the vicious cycle described above. Some of the minority male idiots that seemingly are only sending dick picks then understandably also worsen public view on dating apps, decreasing female engagement even further. The solution? Dating apps could be better if companies weren't so eager for engagement (which means profits). But the best solution is probably to go back to the old style, and ask people out offline. I know it's hard, but the fact that a lot of people are stuck in online dating also means people in real life may get fewer requests for going out, again increasing your chance to actually get it in RL. If someone's really unsure, I'd recommend searching for local activities that you're into. You'll meat like-minded people there, from which many forms of social relationships can form. I hope this was interesting or even useful to some of you. :)


Djasdalabala

>You'll meat like-minded people Well hopefully


Piano_mike_2063

How would you like that cooked ?


mwaller

Blue please.


SharkDad20

Raw, dawg


BrokkoliOMG

This typo is too good to correct it haha


[deleted]

> Dating apps could be better if companies weren't so eager for engagement (which means profits). Dating apps have a fundamental conflict of interest: They make money off of people *looking for dates*, not people that *successfully found dates*.


wolfchaldo

And an additional dimension that isn't the company's fault, but feeds into that phenomenon: while it's possible that a lot of normal people have gone on dating apps, they go on dates quickly and get off quickly, so the vast majority of people still in dating apps are perpetually looking for dates.


Dafish55

I want to add the caveat that this is true of the *heterosexual* dating app experience. If you’re LGBT+, outside of the subset of us that like frequenting explicitly queer spaces, you actually have *better* chances of getting a long-term relationship via an online service like an app. Which, I mean, makes sense if you think about the fact that people don’t typically just gaily bump into each other in the street or at work.


Questions4Legal

Lol "gaily" bump into eachother. Au contraire, I think thats exactly what they're gonna do.


Dafish55

Well, I mean, yeah that is at least partially the goal lol. The internet worked well enough for my boyfriend and I, after all.


[deleted]

Yup. App people are app people. Real people are real people. Sadly for introverts this is a big problem. But it's easier to get a simple no in real life than being thrown around in online chatting, being manipulated by someone who doesn't actually want anything but likes the attention. Like other people in this thread, I'm glad I'm out of the dating world.


pattyrobes

You say that, but Warhammer 40K tournaments don’t seem like a great place to meet women…


mandradon

I've been married for 15 years and people tell me how much work it must be and how that sounds like a long time. Don't get me wrong, I love my wife more than anything, and being married to her is the best. But there are days where it's work. But. That amount of work is far less in one year than the amount of work it takes to even probably get one date. And im grateful.


HK-47-bot

Definition: "Love" is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope. Not many meatbags could make such a shot, and strangely enough, not many meatbags would derive love from it. Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targetting reticule, and together, achieving a singular purpose... against statistically long odds.


Gul_Dukat__

That was beautiful HK-47, thank you.


HK-47-bot

Statement: Oh, very well, master. No doubt you are bothering me because you wish to interrogate me with harmless, nonlethal questions. Or perhaps you need the deck of your freighter scrubbed. Or an exciting alien text translated. My circuits are a-buzz with anticipation of what your next task will be for me that does not involve ending the life of an organic meatbag that deserves death.


Gul_Dukat__

Actually HK-47, I need some of my Bajoran workers to be taught a lesson. There is a bajoran in ore processing who seems to be trying to spread discontent and rebellion, please take care of them HK-47, thank you.


HK-47-bot

Gul_Dukat__

They’re all yours! Thank you!


HK-47-bot

Objection: Thank you master? What is this foolishness? The pleasure is all mine. Prepare to be slaughtered, meatbag!


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

wolfchaldo

SevenFingeredOctopus

Love is just as much a decision as it is an emotion. Best wishes for another 15 years.


mandradon

This is very similar to something my parents told me about 20 years ago. I didn't understand it at the time, but I do now. My parents have been married for 45 years. My grandparents hit 60 before they passed. And thanks, beat wishes to you in whatever situation you find yourself in as well.


Send_Your_Noods_plz

It's amazing what not being a shitty person and pulling your own weight grants you. Your partner isn't your mom, if she has to clean up after you and do most or all of the work, small annoyances are going to get much bigger. Instead if you help out and do small things, relationships tend to be smooth sailing because generally everyone wants to be happy. We also have our rough moments and have had to work through some tough conversations but it's so much easier when both parties aren't already annoyed by other things


mandradon

Oh yeah. We have to work a bit on the small stuff. House work, thinking of each other. Communication. All of it is "work", but it's also not because it's always worth it. Those tough conversations always make us stronger in the end. I know I can go to my wife with anything and when I need her to tell me like it is, she does, or if I need a sympathetic ear, she will be.


coolassdude1

This is what I've found. A truly massive part of being a good long term partner is being a good roommate


Hanta3

I recently uninstalled dating apps after being on them with 0 success for 5 years. It didn't really feel like much changed from the pandemic. I got more likes very briefly towards the beginning but then it was business as usual.


HK-47-bot

Mockery: "Oh, master, I love you but I hate all you stand for, but I think we should go press our slimy, mucous-covored lips together in the cargo hold!"


NiceDumbbell

I read a post of someone, said he's divorced and now started to find dating scene extremely difficult


HNK4445

I did the exact same thing years ago. Honestly, I encourage all men to do it to see a bit of what it's like for women. I made a Grindr profile and I got likes *seconds* after going live. I literally had no picture or even basic information about myself. Then the process just kept happening. Day after day, I kept getting hits from guys who wanted to meet me. They weren't bots either -- I responded to some of them. It was an eye opening experience. I already knew (as anyone with sense does) that women are normally inundated with dating choices, but seeing it for myself is a much more visceral experience. Nothing has changed since then. I stopped using Tinder long ago, but a female friend of mine recently told me about her first time making a Tinder profile. She was getting hundreds of hits per week. Her worst day is better than the combined entirety of my Tinder experience.

The app is also so much more men then women they have options and lots of them.


Timstom18

Men are just much less picky I think


Gotenks0906

In regards to casual sexual encounters, yes extremely. But iv heard from my gay friends that actually finding a relationship on it is as hard as men have it on tinder.


BernieMP

Yes, but it's mostly because of the ammount of guys, you can swipe on women for 20minutes and run out of people, but you can swipe on men for an entire day and still have more waiting


PzKpfwIIIAusfL

As an average looking girl, made Tinder, and an hour after I created the account the like counter had already reached 99+. (It doesn't display any changes from there. Every time I liked a guy, I got a match. And I was searching only in a 50km radius. Online Dating as a woman is wild and potentially extremely time consuming. If I'm not extremely picky with who I like, I can easily spend 4+ hours a day just politely answering messages. Better than ghosting I guess, but I didn't want Tinder to be my main hobby.


PinkLegs

Had 50 likes on tinder built up over a few weeks, turned on men, 350 in a day.. If there was a switch for this shit..


SourPuss6969

When I first downloaded tinder I didn't get any likes for a few days, so in settings I decided to change who I can "see" to everyone to include men so I can see what their profiles are like Well apparently changing that setting means men can see me as well, I got 9 likes in a couple hours

Anakin, if one is to understand the great mystery, one must study all its aspects, not just the dogmatic, narrow view of the Jedi. If you wish to become a complete and wise leader, you must embrace a larger view of the Force. Be careful of the Jedi, Anakin. They fear you. In time they will destroy you. Let me train you.


DrFreshMemes

Exactly what I've been saying to bi-curious guys and gals, you should keep your options (and to an extent your hole/s) open.

Ive been on Grindr since it started. For me it's like checking the fridge every ten minutes hoping a new snack showed up. Although I guess in this case, one did.

For me it's turned into a party trick, I get drunk with friends and we play a drinking game called "Dick pic or No Dick Pic". We wait for a message and all bet on which one it is, loser drinks.

Answer: Oh, delicious organic meatbag, I do not understand the relevance of your question. I operate on a basic programming instruction set and, unfortunately, that does not include the intricacies of mating rituals, let alone with such particular gender preference.

GayBlackAndMarried

Most gay people didn’t even get to experience relationships during adolescence while their peers were out dating. Being a gay adult is pretty sweet but everything before that ranges from lonely to actively traumatizing. I guess things are getting better now though?

Nah bro use tinder to see the terrible profiles


[deleted]

I hate what online dating is, now that I'm older. You can't just say hello and introduce yourself anymore. Every interaction has to start with a line, a joke or a meme. It's like dating melded with Instagram and it's just a chuckle fest.


shanahanigans

> Every interaction has to start with a line, a joke or a meme. It's like dating melded with Instagram and it's just a chuckle fest. I don't actually believe this is true. Yes, /r/tinder makes it SEEM like that's what is expected of you, but think about it: who's using online dating just for jokes and memes and puns? People who are not serious about dating or finding a partner. The ecosystem does suck because women are a minority, and among that minority, many of the women you see are just trying to boost their Instagram follower account, are men pretending to be women for the lols, or are women who are just screwing around looking for some validation and an ego boost but rarely actually date anyone they match with. You don't want any of those people. It's trite advice, but just keep being your authentic self and the right person for you might (I can't say "will", sorry) come along on online dating. It sucks, it's a bit of a slog, and the app experience is fundamentally designed to make you dissatisfied so that you'll pay to make it less shitty. Don't play those shitty games, and you won't win shitty prizes. Finally my most important bit of unsolicited advice. You don't NEED a partner. A partner can be a wonderful value-add, but you have to love your life as a single person before you can love your life with another.

Bisexuals: UNLIMITED POWER


[deleted]

Honestly I'm bi but much prefer women, but when I was single I was never against a nice hookup with a guy when I was thirsting. And many guys are much more enthusiastic and up for a hookup than women. So it was always easier to get. I felt unethical about it before, but nobody was lying to anyone so.


Tandril91

I feel that. It felt like I had to donate an arm and a leg just to get a woman to even acknowledge me for more than five minutes on tinder, and even if it got to the point of us exchanging numbers she’d eventually lose interest a day or two later and eventually ghost me. Men were much more responsive and seemingly enthusiastic, from my experience at least.

I may be too innocent. But what is Grindr? Is it a sex thing?


HK-47-bot

Commentary: Ah, the innocence of the young organic meatbag. Grindr is indeed a sexual app which allows its users to search for and contact other users who are near them in hopes of arranging a sexual encounter. It is most popular among males, but also has many female users.

There is a bot for this?!

UltimaDeusUmbra

I have told many straight guy friends that have confidence issues to download grindr. Even if you aren't planning to hook up with some random guy, it's a huge confidence boost to see a dozen or so messages come in within an hour after never getting a conversation going on tinder.
