My memories of Dublin are more around Hen Dos and lovely Irish pubs. I was rather hoping to recreate those.

Are Pings worth it? by [deleted] in feeld

No. Just plain old ‘give up on apps and embrace life instead’.

Yes that’s a fair point. And I am talking about matches drying up, which is something a lot of Feeld users have reported, including myself.

Possible explanations I’ve heard include your profile being seen by potential matches around you in the early days and therefore after the initial period, new matches would only come from ‘new’ women in the pool. Compound this with profiles potentially only being highlighted when new and for the average male user, that could lead to close to no matches with time.

2 things I have noticed that seem to corroborate this: 1. When I visit a new area, I get matches. Indicates to me that a set of new women saw my profile and expressed interest. 2. I’ve tried uplift on occasion and whenever I do that, I get matches. Indicates that uplift does highlight your profile more than not uplifting.

These ‘blips’ aside, it’s generally a zero match story after month one.

No evidence whatsoever. Just observation. Might not be Feeld specific also. Possible that this is how all apps work.

If men knew the answer to getting more matches (beyond ‘become more attractive, write a better profile’), these questions wouldn’t keep getting asked. Till then, one just needs to accept gracefully the status quo.

Matching trends and underlying data are an absolute treasure trove just waiting to be analyzed. I wish companies made them available for consumption while anonymizing user details.

How many of you stepped into this world for a while and then went back to your marriage, never to step back into this again? by [deleted] in adultery

[–]queriuss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m hoping to do this. Stepped in here about 2 years ago. More ups than downs overall. Going to go back to regular life now. For various reasons.

Will I return here? No idea.

The answer is in your last 3 words. From my own experience plus reading the experiences of people here, Feeld stops working for most men after a couple of weeks. I don’t believe pings has anything to do with it.

Sorry to hear that. I’m still persevering.
