6 Months and No Dates
40m. Ive been divorced for about a 2 years, was married for 12, and decided to get back out there. I work nights and most weekends so meeting people irl is tough. Ive never tried online dating before and thought it would be convenient. Ive tried tinder, bumble, hinge, and boo. I live in a metro area of 500k and an hour from another city with 500k. In 6 months Ive gotten under 10 matches, most of the conversations stalled after about 3 messages. One woman we chatted for about 3 days and she ghosted me when I asked her out. WTF!
I looked up how to make my profile better and even paid for a month of tinder when they had a sale. Im not being creepy or rude, I ask about there interest and whatnot and still get nothing. My self worth is in the trash. Does this happen alot, was all this a giant waste of time and energy?
