I’m one more failed Hinge match away from turning into one of those freaks who marries their car. Old school dating (shooting your shot IRL) is coming back in a big way this year…
it‘s all about time, luck, and making a profile that’s treads the line of seductive and off-putting - be hot and put your idiosyncrasies on show in a way that is guaranteed to put some ppl off and draw the right ppl in..this broke the cycle of boring matches and dead convos for me.
when I matched with my now bf he said my hinge reminded him of a tumblr profile <333 he got it the thing about hinge as well is that basically every single person looking to date in London is on it so it’s just a matter of time
I'm the existential "it'll all fall into place" type and I find it becomes fuel for my fear of rejection...my "if it was supposed to happen, it would have" philosophy can only take me so far if I'm not putting myself out there.
I'm still intimidated by the apps, but am trying to be more intentional with my communication/connections IRL if I'm not gonna make the digital leap. My brothers in a happy/healthy relationship that blossomed from hinge though so ik it's possible
