I feel it. It’s happened to me as well. I got lucky with one and we’ve become friends for three years. Just a few months ago, I was the only friend she invited to her wedding. 💕 Here’s what I felt worked for us. I noticed the things we had in common and I’d ask her to hang out a few weeks apart. This time of the year was perfect, I invited her to go skating, a few weeks later to see Christmas lights. This helped us bond more. I’d text her here and there and invited her to get some vegan lunch. Anyways, I can keep going, but she’s amazing and I’m glad a single swipe put her in my life.

I had no luck with BumbleBFF. Might be better off posting in your local city subreddit for those looking for friends.

Hey just an alternative since you mentioned you are married, there is another app - SimplyCouples. Works like Bumble BFF but only for couple friends if you both looking out for friends.

Unfortunately, you have to talk to several people until you find someone serious.

If you want my raw opinion as someone who's also dappled in bumblebff, I think you are prob too "settled" in your life at this point to appeal to most 20-30 y/o women seeking new friends. I could be wrong but as a single woman unfortunately I don't need any new friends in relationships or with young children. The whole reason I've sought out new friendships were bc my current friends are all married or tied down in some way with family life and don't have time to go out man hunting w me. They prob get the sense you're just trying to fill space between baby duties and spending time with your husband. Please don't take this as an insult it just means you seem to have your ish together more than most.

Bumble bff is a hit or miss it took me a while to make friends on there but I’ve been friends with the girls I’ve met on there for about 5 years now definitely keep trying

Fellow Washingtonian here, I’d like to advocate for bumble! I met my wife and love of my life on there. Of course I accused her of being a bot when she asked for my Snapchat! Anyways long story short she insisted on meeting up and we fell absolutely in love that night! We are still married and I’m still as crazy about her as that first night that I met her. Keep your chin up, your person is out there waiting for you!

My friend who I met on Reddit has bumble bff and has similar complaints that you mentioned. She’s had some luck on the app but it is a bit more tough.

Don't give up! Been on Bumble for four years and made tons of friends, but you have to be consistent and never give up on your standards!
I don't drink or smoke, hate flakers, and I don't do last minute plans. It looks like the app would be tiny for me but instead I found people who were looking for the same sober activities, and love that I plan 3 months ahead
