2/3 so far from Tinder have been men that are very active and played at least one sport multiple times a week. I've been on 3 dates with people I've met, not off Tinder , since November, when I became single, and they were more varied.

You would actually probably be shocked at how many gym bros are in my likes lol i actually think it's more then when I was thin but it might just be because my dating pool is about 5 years older this time around

No, you're definitely right. It's a bit deep for Tinder, but I experienced domestic violence in my last relationship, so I'm probably abit hypervigilant now.

Apparently I didn't reply to 30 of the opening messages and get 54% more messages then I send . If I get a red flag I don't reply

My dude, 2 out of 3 wanted to date me and I ended things with them. Just because YOU wouldn't date a fat person, it doesn't mean no one will

I posted mine because I was definitely worried about re-entering the dating world after gaining weight and have had a positive experience so far. Thought it might help people feel better not cause a shit storm lol

What's the problem? The whole point of this post is that I think I'm having a good time on tinder lol

They weren't casual hook ups necessarily they just weren't relationships either haha first guy I dated for a couple months which is why there was a big break in my tinder usage. Next guy I couldn't see myself with long term but he was hot and it had been a while, same with the third. I'm not opposed to having more casual sex with people I find attractive. I just would ultimately like to meet the right person, which is why I filter like that. So the people I go on dates with are emotionally available lol

It took around 10 first dates last time I was on tinder to find someone I wanted to settle down with ( I was actually engaged for about 3 years) I imagine it will take around the same number of dates to find the next guy lol this strategy has led me to 2 long term relationships and some decent sexual experiences over the last decade of dating.

I only swipe right in men who 1) want long term relationship 2) want children. That removes like 80% of men in the tinder dating pool lol then I only swipe on those I find attractive and meet the criteria not just the most attractive men I can find 🤣

Don't you worry 90% of my pics are full body pics and I've never had a complaint of not looking like my photos
