Dating Apps - Tumblr Posts
I've just impulsively installed Tinder. Someone talk me out of this.
You can literally have "I'm not a unicorn and I'm not into non-monogomy" in your dating bio and you'll still get a message saying "so this is actually a joint account for me and my s/o and we're looking to share 🥺"
Like holy fuck it's no different than a guy asking a lesbian out because "I'm really into you cant we try?" Like holy fuck what makes you think I'd change my mind for a girl who looks like she smokes crack out of a tin can and a guy missing half his teeth and chromosomes?
what if dating apps had their own version of spotify wrapped??? like i want a fun lil slideshow presentation to tell me fun lil facts like “most people you matched with are homosexuals with strong feelings about the muppet movies”. i think i’m onto something…

Me trying to figure out what to say when I match with a guy on a dating app
My experience after using Hinge recently:

Seriously….I know I clicked X on the obvious fuckboy’s profile, why are you suggesting him again like 12 hours later???
I'm realizing that, although these things may be unrelated, the number of ads I get for colleges has decreased and the number of ads I get for redbull and dating apps has increased
I'm having PTSD flashbacks of Grindr. All the cute people my age are between 80 and 270 km away. In the meanwhile, there's a 38 year old 1 km away that wants to touch me 😭

do you ever gain this brief awareness while on a dating app that, like, here we all are posing and posturing to the best of ability trying to find love and yet we all just casually swipe through each other?
i mean this is another human being I'm looking at and yet I just go "too short, too boring, too preppy, too ugly" like what the fuck?? i am dehumanizing people in search of human connection and wondering why i feel lonely?
but then my awareness fades and i go right back to swiping and i just--i don't know. i don't have some grand point to make here other than that something feels wrong and i don't know how to fix it
why do men make dating profiles like they’re in witness protection
i don't consent to whatever in the fuck that is
