Thoughts on setting my location 15 minutes from where I actually live to get more matches?
Hey all, I live in a big city and I’m 90% sure I’d get more matches that are more to my liking if I set my location as 15-20 minutes away. This is based on where I’ve lived previously. I’m happy to drive for dates and wouldn’t lie in conversations. Others seem to do this, but not sure the reasoning.
Question: Is there an issue with telling a white lie in this way in your opinion?
Further context: I’m a 34m in Sydney who gets 3-5 matches a week. Dating seriously. I live in a city where people live in geographic bubbles for whatever reason (bodies of water, toll roads, cultural elitism). My bubble is older and less diverse. Across a bridge there’s the younger areas where there’s more people worth meeting. For those that know, I live Lower North Shore Sydney and the younger areas are Inner East, Inner West and Inner Sydney. I’d probably just set my location as Sydney.
