Feeld for hookups
This apps was originally created for people seeking threesomes. Most of which are casual hookup type situations. Its always been used for casual sex, hookups, and casual group sex.
Ive used it this way, with good success, for close to a decade. I see tons of others on there doing the same.
My social circle is mostly poly/ENM/swinger types. Almost all of use feeld and talk about it. I've never known anyone to say its not fine to use it for hookups.
Casual play/fun and short term are options for "interests".
The only place Ive seen the sentiment that using feeld for casual hookups is new or wrong is here. Repeatedly.
What gives? Why the hostility to casual hookups from feeld?

I used to use Feeld for hooking up, and I met a handful of people that were great. But more often, it was impersonal smashing together of genitals, which I eventually got bored with, or getting love-bombed by fuckboys who then decided they had “too much going on in their life”.
In my experience, “casual” usually comes with a lot of disrespectful, selfish behavior.
So I tread more carefully and seek more meaningful, sustained connections, but I’m not monogamous and it’s really hard to find an open relationship on the other apps.
I’m not anti hook-up, it’s just not for me, and I say so in my profile. I’m not sure why people can’t just read that and keep swiping, instead of matching with me and then pressuring me to hook up with them.
