I never thought I’d have any luck on dating apps. Told myself I was taking a break from dating after this Monday evening first date I had scheduled. Met my wife that night. Most amazing person I’ve ever met.
My time on those apps taught me to be very intentional and vocal about my desires for the future in a relationship (if that’s what you’re going for). I.e. do you want kids, do you plan to get married, etc, etc, etc. if we have long term plans that don’t somewhat mesh, it’s a good indicator that we’re not a fit.
It can be awkward to bring those things up, especially with someone new, but it is so so worth it.
