Oh yeah that happens a lot, especially if you're a dude. You just kinda have to learn to not take it personally, it's just the nature of those platforms unfortunately, they want you to use the app for as long as possible.

Dating apps shouldn't be for-profit businesses IMO, it just fucks everything up.

Yeah, it sucks that you really have to treat dating as a numbers game (as in if I meet enough people, I'll eventually meet someone who likes me) and suppress the part of yourself that wants to get invested in each person you date.

I ended up together with my SO who I met online, but I wouldn't wish the process leading up to meeting her on anyone.
