Feel that all dating apps nowadays are an absolute scam so curious if anyone here has actually had any success with dating apps and if so what app what is it?

    Worst to best:

    Meet(.)com worst piece of crap ever. It’s on level of human trafficking.

    Plenty of fish should be renamed to plenty of flakes.

    Okcupid was rough. It took me so many dates and I managed to meet one or two decent people out of say…50 dates. We ended up as good friends and nothing more which was actually really cool. Nice meeting friends. But still, too many people to find one or two decent people to interact with is exhausting.

    I had a decent relationship from bumble back in the day.

    Eharmony was best so far. You have to pay so it really does prefilter out the flakes and I felt like my time wasn’t wasted as much as other apps. Perhaps it is because people paying for something take it a whole lot more seriously.

      eHarmony is really expensive and for me… I couldn’t find anyone on there.

      Bumble did eventually work out though, in a relationship for ~7 months now

        Yeah it’s very expensive but ngl the people I did end up meeting took dating so much more seriously than the free apps. The conversations had a lot more honesty and such a relief after the bullshit I had gone through on the free apps. Made them look like a joke. I only joined it for a month but for me it was all I needed at that time.

        Bumble was decent too. But the selections can be up or down.
