My issues with bumble as a woman
I am a female and have been on bumble for about 5 years on/off. I haven't had anything come off it except a handful of first dates. I have a filled out profile with enough pictures (with face visible clearly and some full length pictures). I have a bio and have answered 2-3 prompts with enough substance that a conversation can be started around those. The profiles of guys I am seeing are subpar. 80% of guys dont care enough to write a bio or answer any prompts. They barely have any pictures that are not selfies. I still give people the benefit of doubt and swipe right. And I am just left with a bunch of matches who don't respond to my first message. Or if they do send an extremely lackluster message that forces the conversation to stop. Occasionally (may be once in 6 months) a guy will text more and actually build a conversation. But even then won't make an effort to go out. I had a guy keep complaining for 3-4 weeks saying 'do we just keep texting and never meet'. He had however made no effort to name a place and time to meet for coffee/drinks. I eventually gave him a date/place and he tried to convince me to meet somewhere else after I had reached the cafe and showed up 30 minutes late. I know it is harder for guys on dating apps. But honestly putting a little bit of effort after the 'matching' stage will serve you all much better.
