Worked for me, too! Though, my (now) wife had paid for the subscription so she had bonus features.
Comment on NO BITCHES?

I found the number of women that would actually send a message was perhaps one in ten. A chunk would just let the match expire, the others would send either one of the Gif options, or “hey”.
Half of them had an identical account on Tinder anyway.

Yeah I get that. A lot of (male) matches on bumble didn’t engage with me either after I sent a message. I’m not a wordsmith by any means but I always tried to mention something I saw in their profile and ask a question. I figured if anything it showed a bit of effort as a minimum. Never tried tinder.

Interesting that men are pretty bad as well, I had a similar approach to you, try and mention something in their profile. It’s part of the reason I think Hinge is the best of the apps right now.

I haven’t been dating online since 2021 so I can’t really comment on the current scene ^.^ I hope it treats you well!

People are THAT bad?
I put more effort in a new friend.
And I am like, disabled.

Yeah, it’s pretty grim.

I treated internet dating as a numbers game. Hard to get too upset about someone initially just not responding. It would feel more personal to me when we would be talking for a bit and they would just ghost. Your comparison is fair, people put varying levels of effort into their relationships in general.

That worked for me on ICQ, 24 years ago.
