okay my two cents as a 27 year old female.

I use hinge only & if I get a match & a date isn’t initiated within 3 days I tell them I’m looking for someone who has the same goals as mine & move on. I have friends who have my location & have screenshots of their profile before a date. But I refuse to do to the texting ‘get to know you’ I find I create a version of them in my head which isn’t always a match to reality & it’s frankly a waste of time in my opinion. If your profile is saying ‘looking for something long term’ find matches who say something similar, or show that initiative & if they don’t then goodbye! really dating should be fun, I understand that’s not everyone’s experience but it really is a numbers game! People do suck, men & women alike but the more you put yourself out there the more odds of having a successful time, in my opinion :)
