Dating : The “I’m so over dating apps” cycle.
I find myself in a loop. Make a dating app profile, use it for awhile, go on a few dates, become tired and jaded, delete app, eventually get lonely, and repeat.
Where am I at in the cycle now? Tired. I don’t think I’m going to meet my person on a dating app. Maybe it’s better just to stick it out and hopefully one day I’ll meet someone naturally.
The only person I’ve ever really loved was someone I met naturally. I doubt he ever used a dating app tbh.
I’m about to hit the delete button again, but I know in my heart I’m just going to re-download these apps a month now. Ugh. I’d love to just delete them and stick to that decision.
Just « hide » your profile. That way you don’t have to go through the taxing mental loop of re-downloading. It’s ALWAYS good to take a break from apps though. It assists your mental health quite a bit.
I do this a lot. Been doing it on and off for over 2 years currently. I delete cause I get frustrated but I don’t ever meet anyone e interesting organically either.
Make sure to try something different when you re-download them.
New and better pictures or try something different with your bio!
You can’t do the exact same thing everytime and expect a different result
Delete them,and then install them after, doesnt matter girl.
I actually delete my tinder and bumble every once and a while, kinda like wiping the slate clean. Gives you a chance to match with people you might have send no to before.
There are genuine people on the apps though they seem to be few and far between. Only thing you can do is hold out.
Otherwise try real life dating, going to a bar, joining a club etc. There are also other apps like meet up which people join for different activities not specially for dating. Broadening your social circles may give you a better chance to meet someone
