Longtime lurker, first time poster.....
I've been single for a year and a half and would really like to meet someone again. During the first lockdown I used Bumble and chatted to a few guys. Had a lot of positive interactions and arranged a date which didn't happen. Never mind.
I recently joined tinder and deleted it fairly quickly....wanted to be optimistic but it's just not for me. Too many creeps and guys who put minimal effort into having a conversation. Went back on bumble but this time there seemed to be less guys. The majority of those guys I'd already seen on the app when I was on it last year. Had a few decent conversations but no plans to meet up with anyone. One guy asked if I wanna go shopping with him, I said no and suggested an alternative (meeting up for a drink). He ignored my suggestion but kept texting me. The impression I get (and maybe I'm wrong) is that a lot of guy's aren't actually interested in dating. They just want an ego boost and a pen pal. Now that restrictions r easing I thought more people would be actively looking to date as there are more date options. People can do more than just meeting up for walks. IME this doesn't seem to be the case.
I'm just interested to know what OLD is like from a guy's perspective?
