Is tinder any good for finding a loving relationship?

I've used several different sites before like match.com where you had to pay to use and met people. But not decent guys - just guys that aren't wanting any commitment and always made me feel like they are on the lookout for something better. I know these apps have the same reputation, but it looks like a better way to match with more guys and quicker.

I've noticed some awful dating profile with guys showing a gun collection and saying they are married just looking for chat and ] the risks of sextortion.

But if im thinking about trying this app there might be other normal people like me on it right?

Has anyone had any luck with this app or others? As its a numbers game I think just the more guys I get to see the higher my rate of success.

I've just met someone on tinder. I've used it before a few years ago in the past but never dared going on dates. Me and this guy had an instant connection and a lot in common after talking for a week we had a date and things are going great! Like people have said it's easy to tell if someone isn't serious by pics and bio ( lots of drinking pics, pics of their body).

Met my DP on Tinder. You have to wade through a lot of shit but there are some genuine stars on there. :)

Actually once you wade through the idiot you can find some genuine people. I meet my now bf there and going strong for a year as has my house mate. Using tinder actually allowed me you find a person that I have common interests and a connection. Give it ago but be careful.❤️❤️
