    This. I realize as a woman it’s easier for us when it comes to dating apps to just receive likes but the sheer volume of desperate people who will swipe right on literally every single woman can be annoying as they haven’t read your profile.

    But they can be filtered out rather easily with a good system unlike people approaching IRL. Harmlessly ignored or ghosted rather than painfully turned down in a scene in some sort of public place.

      Yeah I feel you. It’s defo some work to go through it haha. My gf unpauses her hinge for a minute and gets like 7 likes lol.

      Facts. I feel like dating apps work great for people who struggle to approach strangers. The people I met with also struggled with this, but are actually super social individuals.

        Same, nowadays I think approaching IRL is just too dangerous both because of neurotic people who will suspect ill intent automatically and people with said ill intent.
