Bumble data

4 replies

Topcat9876 · 22/07/2022 15:09

I requested my bumble data (online dating)
It makes for an informative read
In my time on and off the app I have swiped left (so no) for nearly 35k men
And said yes to about 600.

I set my profile to incognito ( you have to pay ) just for privacy sake.

I guess my point here is that I am still single 35k men later so I am not going to bother with the app again as I think online dating is not for me.
If I cannot find one match out of 35k men then I think its safe to say I am the problem

How long were you on there for in total, eg one month then a break then three months etc.

Did you not delete your account during breaks, you just paused it? I’m going on the apps in a few months and I’ll be really keen to see my data too.

How long have you been on there?

Say you spent 10 seconds on average reading a profile before swiping left. That's over 97 hours of your life, FOUR WHOLE DAYS, spent swiping.

I would say 99% of profiles don't merit 10 seconds so don't worry about that figure.

I'm interested in the 600 swipes right, did you date anyone at all? Any connection?

I can completely see how you could swipe left on 35k men. I go on bumble occasionally and don't swipe right very often. I feel it's like getting into a train packed carriage - how many men in that carriage are dateable and in my age range etc etc. Not many. Then if I was to speak to those who I did fancy and fancied me, how many would I emotionally and intellectually connect with. None I bet.
So how many train carriages full of men would I need to look at? Loads and loads.
Honestly it's a numbers and luck thing.

But that's not true? You found 600 in 35600 which is roughly 1:60. Low odds but that's because online dating is much harder than seeing someone in life!
