I met the Dr. on Match., didn't like Tinder or POF, had some success on Bumble. I thought the quality of women was the best on Match and Bumble.

I don’t know what has happened to POF but my inbox has been flooded with scammers and requests for sex. I signed on and signed off when that began to happen. Ok Cupid is just as bad. Bumble isn’t being so good to me and I don’t know if I ready to pay for match.

I actually saw a lot of guys on tinder who were also on bumble.

I thought only hookups too, but a are actually divorced parents looking for a LTR. Or at least they say.

Not putting too much stock in it. I am really just trying to say I tried, lol

Personally I do the best on Bumble. Match seems to have the most real people. Zoosk I have read has the most fake people. I don’t think it hurts to try Tinder.

I have a friend in Cincinnati who swears by Speed Dating. I don’t know if they have that in your area?

When I was on Match I always sorted by activity date so I knew who was active. I always looked in a 5 mi radius at first and then would expand as needed.

G....change it up!

I have done speed dating before! It actually did lead to an actual date. But it turned out he was pretty darned young. He was interested, but he was just too young.

I’m not going to lie. I’m tired of trying. I’ve done it all. On and off online dating for like 10 years. Speed dating. Getting set up. Joining activities. I’ve done it all. Lord knows anything I don’t get is not for lack of effort. I put full effort into everything I do. I’m just not achieving the desired outcomes. I’ve also tried not trying. Not looking. Still..... nope.

I would describe myself as a great woman. An excellent partner. My friends describe me as the same. Even some of the guys I dated do. If my ex wasn’t such a douche, he would probably admit it too.i keep trying to find something wrong with myself to explain it. But I can’t.

Oh well. I want what I want, but I don’t want to work for it anymore.

^^^^^ I’m going to get back to you on that one^^^^^

So I actually had a connection with a tinder guy. He lives 11 mi. Away. 44 years old Has one son 8 years old and has been single for 6 years. He’s a teacher. Our conversation flowed, we have the witty banter going. It was great talking to and It wasn’t like talking to a rock. We actually chatted for quite a while. We have a tentative date set for this weekend.

Oh, and his tag line was “casually looking for something serious” I really likes that.

That sounds promising Ginger. I do think that there are some good people on Tinder amongst the “ethically non-monogamous” and one-night-standers. Hope our weekend dates go well for both of us!!! (((HUGS)))

This all sounds very promising! Conversation flow is a must for me now.
