Preferibly if the matchmaking is based on personality surveys/questions. So far I've tried OkCupid, Tinder and Bumble.
Tinder is fucking garbage because no one writes a bio and it's too superficial (and most people is there for just casual sex, and I'm not interested on that)
OkCupid is the one I liked the most (personality surveys, great interface, and I talked with some nice people there) but it's pretty much dead on my country (only 1-2 new matches per day).
Bumble seems like a mix of both but I don't like that its interface and neither that it shows you hot/highly requested people first.
I've tried bumble but I get no matches with that. I don't even get likes.

Dating apps are not a good way to meet people. If you want to be a "fuckboy", and you're handsome, tinder works. If you want a serious relationship, try other avenues.
Asher Morris
Bumble has an issue that it pads female profiles with fake ones. Be wary of that.
Sebastian Richardson
OP I’ve tried the following:
>Tinder Useless for anything except hookups that you will regret >OKCupid Filled with overweight people and yeah inconsistent activity >Bumble Way too fucking picky and lots of dead accounts >Hinge I actually got some matches, just not enough people and the people I did match with weren’t really my type. My favorite experience of them all. >eHarmony DO. NOT. TOUCH.

>try other avenues. Such as? I'm not a bar or a club person. Environments that constantly loud give me migraines.

What hobbies do you have
Tyler Diaz
I'm the same way. I don't see how you're supposed to meet women in bars when you can't even hear them. Volunteer work is a good way. Soup kitchen, animal shelter, so on. Community college classes like a cooking class can be good too.
Hunter Barnes
It seems like we are all in the same boat. I've tried going to events like craft shows, but most of the women seem paired off.
Nathaniel Wood
Try the volunteer work. The animal shelter I worked at was mostly women.
Owen Powell
Writing, Baking, Running, Table Top Gaming, Board Games.
Ryder Moore
Find D&D groups! Or go to gyms and find people there. Don’t use bars.
Josiah Morris
I used to volunteer a lot at a no kill shelter. The only problem was that most of the volunteers were retirees.
Lincoln Wilson
Wtf is a craft show? You might meet a good sewing machine
Levi Morris
Think of a street fair or a festival, but they sell crafts. Sometimes they sell merch. I use to work with some vendors as a kid. I went to one recently based on antiques, curiosities, and oddities. Think of a flea market crossed with a festival.
Matthew Reyes
I don't know why you'd think you could pick up chicks there but ok
Juan Anderson
What's your story on eHarmony?
Luke Hughes
There is a lot of people including chicks who go there and there is usually a lot of entertainment. But most of the time they are dragging there boyfriends out with them or they are paired off with somebody else. Hindsight 20/20.
Alexander Brown
Signed up for $30 a month plan Match with like 3 different women, 2 of them very fake/artificial, 1 of them genuine. 1 who is genuine is flaky and emotional and just begging for attention. Decide to cancel subscription >WOAH BOI, you signed up for a $180 plan over 6 months! Not a $30 a month plan!
Followed by me talking to 6 different representatives in order to get a refund. Takes about 1-2 weeks. Only a chargeback threat got through to them.
Dylan Bell
never really understood the whole "go to a bar and meet grils" thing. like...how the fuck do you do that? girls go to bars to get drunk as do I, not to find a hookup/gf. pretty sure they'd all be in a relationship or uninterested in being hit on at a bar, anyway.
Liam Bell
>girls go to bars to get drunk as do I, not to find a hookup/gf lmao yeah no one ever goes to bars and gets laid
Elijah Parker
ive had shit luck with all of them too user. ill try hinge. thanks for the recommendation.
i think my goal is to get so jaded that i just dont care anymore. ive been single for too liong
Grayson Peterson
Meetme gave me the best results if you can get through the waves of bots and catfish profiles. Hinge was successful too in terms of matches, but I kept getting fatties. Not sure if my algorithm was fucked
Logan Roberts
Depends what you're in the bar for.
I live in a rural area and there was an emo concert at a bar nearby. Usually we just get some generic metal bands around here. I grew up on shit like that so I jumped on it hoping to catch some good covers of some classics. Ended up meeting a qt there who is totally my type and was also kinda there by herself just for the music. We ended up hitting it off and hanging out all night (I brought a friend but he was mostly just there to drink, not his type of music). I assume this is what people mean though. It's tricky sometimes because in an area like mine you don't get much of anything but random shit at bars sometimes. Dating apps don't really work around here because 80% of the women are the same and in a town like mine there are like 20 people using Tinder. This usually means if I want a relationship it has to be sort of long distance (usually an hour) but I don't mind.
