So I’m a 25 year old male trying to get into dating so I decided to make a fb, bumble, tinder, hinge, and duet account online to see what happens. I’ve never been in a relationship other than in high school if you could even consider it one so here’s my goal if anyone has advice or can help me out that would be awesome.

I’m 5’6 and weigh around 145-150 got back into the gym I go bowling but am looking for new things to try but honestly I mostly work got the the gym or I’m home. I have a concern with trying to date right now and that is I signed a lease to move into an apparent but I can’t move in until 3 months from now so I’m at my grandparents currently (my grandpa is in hospice so I was hoping to stay with them to help take care of him but am worried about my future life now)

I don’t think I’m bad looking probably a 6-7 out of 10 on looks alone not including height. But I don’t get matched almost ever or often in the past just started my account a few days ago so looking for advice on what to do on the app and any tips on what I should expect or do if I get a date.

(I honestly believe dating apps kinda blow for guys tho because of how hard it is to even get started on there but maybe I’m wrong)

To simplify things I am 25 years old 5’6 i was never in a relationship that actually mattered or counted because I basically was a replacement or something to pass the time with when I was in high school I never got too intimate with her though either. Anyways after high school I made a 10 year plan which was if my life want better and I was hopelessly single I would take my leave but I decided to post pone that plan a few years ago.. until recently currently my grandpa I live with is in hospice I work all the time and any time I try or get hope I’ll end up in a relationship or feel like I am someone worth while I either just get rejected, or it’s people trying to promote of accounts (keep in mind I weigh 145-150 and go to the gym and am probably a 6-7 on looks if I had to guess) I just feel alone alll the time and starting to feel hopeless it’s like if I’m going to get old one day with no one at all life starts feeling almost meaningless if I’m being honest so I’m trying to not kick the 10 year plan back up but it’s getting hard not too. To summarize what I mentioned I’ve been basically single my whole life my grandpa who I live with is dying in hospice and outside of working or lifting weights I have nothing going for me it feels like. I try to get into relationships and normally I’m pretty positive overall but lately I’m just struggling hard. Being alone and feeling stuck is really starting to get old 😅
