Are you bored of hearing how bad dating apps are?

Dating apps are bad, blah, blah, blah bad. People are just there to hook up, and no one’s really about relationships.

I’ve read sooooo many articles that whine and moan about the same moot point and wax poetic about how bad online dating is. Every day in my medium feed, I’m shown a puff piece about how terrible dating apps are; it’s usually accompanied by blaming the lack of their online dating success on the opposite sex.

Unoriginally dense. But they get clicks, right?

I hate these articles cause all they essentially are is a person's negative and bad personal experiences they wish to project onto us. They’re not exactly helping us, they’re not offering any value. Just a person complaining. Using clever hyperbole and trendy dating buzzwords so you can wallow in their misery just like them.

Then their solution is, “Just meet people in real life.” If it were that easy, we’d be doing that instead, poindexter.

So are dating apps really that bad?

First, let’s get all these horror stories out there so you know what I’ve heard and you most likely have or unfortunately been a part of, and we’ll go from there.
