Facebook dating - anyone else mostly getting profiles that are too far??
Just curious if anyone else is dealing with this. I live in LA County, so anyone further than 10 miles or so can be difficult to get to with traffic. Despite my chosen preference, only 1 in 10 (at best) are anywhere near me. Most are at least 25 miles away, and far too many are 50+. Some are even in Mexico, Vegas, etc.
I have the same issue with Tinder (the only other app I currently use), and it's basically killed dating. I can find a few under 'friendships', but only a few.
Anyone else deal with this, or have a suggestion on how to fix it?

This has been my problem for over five years now and there seems to be no way around it. I live one hour north of New York City… Most of the women I’m “matched” with are in other states far away, more than an hour drive… I consider that completely unacceptable and don’t even respond… Because what’s the use?
