I do not miss being on dating apps. One of the most underrated parts of being in a relationship is that I am no longer socially pressured to go on Hinge because, apparently, that's the only way to avoid being alone. I was lucky enough to meet my partner in real life, so I don't have to deal with the awkward experience of telling people "we met on Bumble." I deleted all my dating app accounts before we even became official, both because I was so into my partner and because I hated using them.
By far the worst part of dating apps is texting some random stranger for weeks, only to meet them and realize that they're a total dud. You can't always tell if somebody's cool over text, but you can often tell if they're uncool. The guy in this story was talking with a woman on Tinder. Well, he was talking to her, but she wasn't doing any talking back.
