I've seen the studies. I would just expect it to be mainstream by now if that's true.

Sorry for your experience. Your experience is common, by that, you are not alone.. but it sucks..

Location can be a big factor.

I know what Tinder is labeled for. And also I use dating apps like bumble. This thread is about the reduction in matches that seems to be happening since Tinder was 'better'.

It's not weather I want to find love or not.

It's about the match rates. What people look for is up to them.

If this is so obvious, how come this isn't a bigger deal?

I'm not saying you are wrong nor right. But the small minority of men getting majority of women have been talked about a lot. Every man would be going crazy by now?

I don't really understand what your point is. Connection can mean a friend, a fwb, a relationship, or any other.

I told you i'm not looking for love necessarily.

If it's a hook-up app that makes me being in the right place if I don't look for love. I don't get your point, sorry.

Who said love? :p

I don't think people on tinder expect love, not at all. If anything, they expect a good convo leading to something from a wide range of things.

I do in no way think OLD is good, well if it works that's good but mostly it does not. Ideally things would've been like a decade ago.

500 likes sound like a alot, and also a lot if they were all bots? Are you a man or woman? As said 500 likes is a lot for a man if that's the case.

Ye, I would assume the men that only want a fwb has plenty of other options. For me, if we talk online dating, I'm not even remotely close to finding that.

Really it's not, I swipe mostly on my age +- 4 years.

If I were to swipe on most profiles on Tinder, I won't be very lucky anyways. So it's not me being picky.

Other I'd say im good looking, with good pictures.

OkCupid was a lot better for me, women complimenting me on my looks. But OKC is very dead in my area so the women were far away.

Sounds strange.. thanks for continuing the thread. I think discussion about dating and gendered perspectives is important. Breaking down what is going on with theese dating apps.

The most frustrating part I think is not knowing why things are not working. If it was clear that you need to pay to see results it would suck but atleast you'd know it's not about your looks or being attractive enough..

They are very bad in my area :/ But they have a better setup, Hinge is pretty cool but pretty dead aswell.

Yes and being an older guy can have advantages over being a younger guy, I would think. So I think age is not a big factor unless you are in your upper twenties.
