Don't forget rule #1: be attractive, or rule #2: don't be unattractive

Even then dating apps are terrible. You have to pay extra just to essentially get the basic service. The free stuff basically doesn't do anything

That's how I found out I might be a little attractive. Lots of stories about apps being ghost towns and it being hard to talk to people. I didn't struggle much to talk to people, went on dates and found my now fiancee that way.

You're one of the lucky few. I bet online apps are great for attractive dudes with lots of great pictures lol.

Yea I definitely count my lucky stars. I also didn't use the main dating apps and stuck with smaller more social dating apps. Found my now fiancee on Boo. Which is marketed as a friend's and dating app. Never bothered with tinder or the other huge ones.
