Cool, then why is that more the half of new couples meet on dating apps?
You don't use apps. You don't know what you are talking about. It's not a conspiracy. They are free. I don't pay for any apps and I regularly get dates from them. Do most women who message me, not meet up with me? yeah, because they aren't interested in me. That's their choice.
If i only did in person dating, I might go on one bad date a year. at least with apps I get way more dates, and half of them are decent, even if they don't go anywhere. i went on like 20 dates last year, a few were bad, but 18 were from apps, and one of them became a short term thing for a month, but we were not politically or financially compatible so I stopped seeing her, plus she hated my cat.
