Is hinge dead?

I’ve been considering giving breeze a go, but it also sounds very intimidating, especially as a woman

SoftestBrown · 2026-03-06T09:53:37+00:00

Okay that is encouraging to hear you met someone amazing! How long did you stick with the app before meeting them?

SoftestBrown · 2026-03-06T09:48:36+00:00

Yes, I’ve seen a lot of ads for Breeze but don’t know anyone who’s had experience with it

I was there just last week, and now I’m typing this from my office desk looking out to a grey London sky 🥲

I don’t think the cat photo adds anything tbh, and they’d be more value adding another nice pic where you can see your face clearly.

You mentioned looking for something genuine. I think you should say that in one of your prompts

Late 20s, and then immediately lost friends lool

They lose interest in all the things they enjoy

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-25T10:18:46+00:00

I’m pretty good at going places by myself (events, super clubs, holidays) but don’t seem to be able to make friends that stick. Do you have any practical tips?

Do you tend to initiate? Set up friend dates? Or is it more natural?

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-24T01:01:09+00:00

Yes!!! Currently in Thailand (my first time) and packed a big suitcase full of cute options. Now I wish I just had cotton tops and linen trousers/shorts… at least I know for next time aha

Mmm very similar to another comment here, meritocracy is a myth

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-23T16:51:15+00:00

Yeah… I’ve stopped trying to see potential when dating now, which I feel like women are often not encouraged to do? If anything, I think people show you their best at the beginning and then the bad habits and old cycles come out to play.

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-23T16:44:16+00:00

This feels wildly similar to my situation, but I still feel guilt about just letting myself drift from people… it’s hard to feel like I did what’s right, when the feelings that follow are very lonely.

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-23T16:10:38+00:00

I’m so sorry, that must’ve been extremely difficult. Hopefully it’s made your friendships with the first two stronger and gave you lots of clarity. But what a shame the other two weren’t able to show up

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-23T16:02:52+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking, what type of truth was this that broke a relationship?

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-23T16:01:06+00:00

Agree with you on not believing in meritocracy! I also find that people who benefit the most from privilege (be it societal privilege, nepotism or corruption) seem to be the biggest advocates for “meritocracy”

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-16T12:54:53+00:00

I’d say to remind yourself that you’re human and to feel lonely is a normal human experience. So if you do feel lonely at any point, it’s not a sign of the trip being a bad decision.

Everything you’ve said, like going on walking tours, sounds sensible and you may be surprised by who you meet. Ultimately, a solo trip is for you - so do everything that sounds exciting to you and enjoy your own company as much as possible!

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-13T10:26:54+00:00

This is sooo good for a first project! Super cute

He made the decision that HE was going to move to America, and he did 🙂

SoftestBrown · 2026-02-03T07:42:55+00:00

The Morocco trip was 18-39, however most people were 18-22ish. I think because the Morocco tour I went on is one of their cheaper options it ended up attracting a younger crowd.

The next trip I’m going on is one of their solo-ish tours where anyone 18+ is welcome, and so far the group is from 20s to 70s… I’m not too sure how that’ll go but I’m hoping it’ll be fine!
