Have followed with interest all the OLD advice - so gone in with eyes wide open. I have used paid for and free sites (Tinder) so building up a body of knowledge about this - and not taking it too seriously.
My question is, when do you unmatch? I am trying to be pretty ruthless in order to retain my sanity! What a load of total unreconstructed to*** there seem to be! What about everyone else? So far I am unmatching those who can't be arsed to send more than two words responses to what I think are not unreasonable and chatty questions ( based on what's in their profile); those who match and do not either bother to respond at all to an initial message or just do not take the initiative and send the first message; crap grammar and punctuation....oh, and please, don't send me xx's and call me hun..... I haven't even met you......What about those who don't reply for a couple of days - or in my case, more. Are they having full and fun and happy lives and are simply too busy? How long do you give them to reply before you hit that unmatch or block button? First world problems, eh?!
And yes, have had a few dates - not looking for any in particular at the mo - just in that 'discovery' phase with no expectations!
