A couple months ago my wonderful roommate told me to download the app "Bumble", which is a dating website or a website you just want to meet someone on. The catch is girls start the conversation so guys have no way of communicating with the girls after they match unless the girl messages first.
I always refused to go on dating websites because I know a lot of them only cause trouble but I downloaded "Bumble" because my roommate wanted me to and it seemed to be okay since I had full control.
At first I thought it was fun to swipe left and swipe right on different people. If you swipe left you did not like them and if you swiped right you did like them.
After a month I stopped going on it because honestly no one was matching with me and I was bored of it. Those who did match with me could not keep a conversation to save their lives. Soon it just felt like it was everyday life where no guys even like me in person so I just shrugged my shoulders and went on with my day.
I did not sign up on this app to find a hook up but I did to meet people and because my roommate wanted me to.
Well, guys started to match with me and I would send a simple "Hey, how are you?" message and to my knowledge many of them deleted the conversation so we could no longer contact each other. Some simply ignored me and once in a while some would answer.
Lately, many of the guys have been answering me but they have intentions that I do not have. Many of them ask me to come over to their places and other derogatory comments and messages. I have decided I hate online dating websites and what is sick about it is I knew this would happen.
It is impossible to find someone on a dating website who is not looking for just a hook up and its disappointing that this is what our society has come to.
I downloaded "Bumble" to check it out, to please my roommate and I was hoping it would have proved me wrong about dating websites.
But it did the exact opposite, I am not an object and nor will I ever look for a hook up. I might laugh it off when I see the message but really it makes me furious with how rude it is to just expect to hook up with someone who just swiped right on you.
Maybe there are girls out there that also just want a hook up but I for sure am not one of them.
ALL dating websites are overrated and until I am actually proved wrong I see no reason to subject myself to them.
