Step 1: be attractive
Step 2: don't be unattractive
Unironically this. Tinder is built in such a way that it makes appearance count far more than it does in almost any other environment. Add to that that there's a huge disproportion between male and female users. For most people, Tinder is just a miserable experience.
I was married before any of these apps became available, so I've never experienced them. How do people deal with the Instagram filter effect? I'm assuming everyone is using every filter they can for their profile pictures. So what happens when you actually meet someone in real life without all those filters? Does everyone just flee in terror at the arrival of their date?
I mean it’s kind of rare, you usually end up snapchatting at some point or whatever, I had a good amount of dates from Tinder and I never felt tricked really as far as I can recall.
