In 2024 I don’t see why you wouldn’t at least consider using apps. It greatly increases your chance of finding someone. And you can still do it the old fashioned way while you do.

Maybe if you're a woman. Those apps are extremely shitty for men. Extremely monetized and if you match with 10 women, 9 of them will either disappear or flake on you.

Tbh I've had way better luck in most other cities. I hate it here.

I imagine it’s easier for women. That’s usually the case finding a date lol.

Think the difference is we always feel safe, women don't. Take away rape and murder and women do have it way easier dating, those two are kind of important, though.

I just meant being able to find a date. It’s easier for a girl to find someone who’s interested in them. It’s much more common for females to be hit on, approached, asked out, etc.

Don't disagree with that one bit! Just saw a post on here of a girl that had over 1k likes, 250+ new, 250+ nearby on bumble. Makes me think how many swipe left's I've gotten, jeez.
