Bumble - advice

Hi, I’m just after a bit of advice about bumble from those who have used it please. I joined the other week but I’m not sure if I’m missing something or if the site just isn’t very good/suited to me? Once you have come to an end of the profiles within your criteria do you you just have to wait for new members to join? I thought it might let you have another look through but doesn’t seem to let me? Also, it seems like it’s drip feeding my matches through to me and there’s massive delays between each message. Any other site I have used we message back and forth a bit and then there might be a lull when one of us is busy but on bumble it seems like every single message has a massive gap in between, as though they don’t get my message at the time I send it? Was just wondering if this is something others have experienced with bumble. I haven’t paid for any of the extras. Thank you in advance 😊

Hi
I was on bumble at the start of the year. Once you have set your filters if you run out you have to wait until more people have gone online and then you get shown them.
Most of the men seem to be slow responders on there....come and join us on the dating thread on the relationship board we have all sorts we can share with you!!

@2anddone thank you for your reply. Aw, I can’t believe all those profiles have gone now, I wouldn’t have been so quick to swipe left if I had known they would disappear forever! I just thought they would come back round again. I weren’t sure if it was the men or the site regarding the slow responses, I’ve never experienced such slow replies in between every message before when I’ve dabbled with other sites. It’s strange as they send good replies, they ask lots of questions etc but it’s just hours and hours in between each message. Hard to get any sort of flow like that. I will try to find that thread you mention, as I’m a bit of a novice at this online dating.

@Scrollbreadroll delete your profile and redo it they will all come back!!
Happens all the time...good luck hope you find a good one, don't do what I did and get invested too early only fit the guy to say he doesn't know if he wants a relationship and end anything before it's even begun after 3 dates and hours upon hours chatting on the phone and texting!!
