Guy seems interested but he’s very slow at responding

Started being back on Bumble Date after half a year of break after a break up. And I matched with someone I thought I clicked well with, he sent me a message first and it wasn’t generic at all - it was about something that I had on my profile.

But then his second response was about a day and a half later, and this slow response time continues. Usually it’s after 24 hours, 48 hours max. He does seem interested and is asking me questions back with multiple texts, I think from my side he can tell I am interested in him because I share quite a lot.

Yesterday he responded twice a day which was very generous coming from him but today again - nothing. It’s been a week of messaging now.

I feel like I am stuck, because we have the same interests and seem to get along well, but I don’t want to ask him out first because I already feel like I am much more invested.

He’s also a lawyer and he is an attractive dude. I’d also say I’m conventionally attractive, but maybe he has some other girls he’s more into, I am not sure…

I don’t know what to do, I guess once he replies back I’ll start pulling off. I stopped swiping because I tend to focus on one person even though I am not specifically looking for a relationship, I keep it open.

Hinge match blocked me on SC

Toh short mai suno, I am fed up of girls on dating apps
She matched w me, we talked a bit but her replies were too slow, toh maine isse pucha ki kahi aur connect krte hai toh usne kaha Snap pr kar sakte, toh maine usse snap pr add kiya waha bhi one word replies and when I asked “what’s she lookin for” usne kaha “nothing” I mean if you are not looking for anything then why waste time here. Khairr maine fir bhi continue kara and I said “You are very confusing” toh uspe usne kaha “Mai apne ghar aayi hu mmy papa hai toh baad mai call pr sab samjhati hu” maine socha chalo thik hai benefit of the doubt dedeta hu so I replied “ok I will be waiting” fir 2 din hogye hai kuch jawab nhi aaya so I texted again “tum toh kuch batane wali thi” to which She hasn’t replied and just blocked me on SC.

I MEAN IF YOU WERE NOT INTERESTED WHY WOULD YOU LIKE MY PROFILE?

Also, she is still in my matches on hinge, Should I text her there or leave it as it is? I am confused as hell. I mean jo baat hai bata do isme block krne wali kya baat hai???????????

What should I do Chat?

Mai samjh gaya hu koi genuine ladki nhi milegi dating apps pr They all are there to just get the validation and like of boys, they just like the attention which they aren’t getting in real life.

It’s done bro 🙏

33, F, British Indian and Dating

I'm 33, Female and a British Indian, I've been on dating apps for a while now (on and off), I've also been to dating events but I've had no luck. I noticed I don't get approached at dating events and if I approach them they tend to walk away and when I speak to guys on apps it seems I'm putting more effort in that they are. I've never been called pretty but often called cute. I've also never been in a relationship. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

Grindr is the only dating app stock that hasn't tanked in the last 5 years, and its obvious why

It's the only app where a majority of the users are actually satisfied with their experience.

A large majority of users (especially men), aren't getting anything out the app and putting more and more money into non-useful paid features of the app.

For men on Grindr, I am immediately envious of you being able to use a dating app that actually works.

Trying to deal with communication gaps

I (23F) have been talking to a guy (25M) that I matched with on bumble for about 3 weeks and so far we've been on a couple dates that have been fun.

However, when it comes to texting I can't help but feel anxious especially when it's hours without getting a response back. I am understanding that life happens and I don't expect to text all the time but checking in here and there wouldn't hurt. Like his job requires a lot of physical labor and because of that I understand he may want to decompress afterwards and have some time alone. Whenever he does text back he does explain where he was and why it took long to reply which is a bit reassuring.

Previously when I've dated guys and they don't respond for hours or days even and I address how it makes me feel to said guys, they never make an effort to improve and things usually end before a connection can really progress into something serious. Because of that I have abandonment/rejection issues as well as trust issues (which is a whole other thing for another day). I also have a fearful avoidant attachment style which doesn't help in this case fr.

I do like the guy I'm currently talking to. He's very considerate, family-oriented, funny, etc. I have yet to tell him how I feel about communicating which I'm hesitant to do because I don't want him to feel pressured or bad for it.

I hate that it's causing me anxiety and that I'm thinking of the worst. I'd like to keep seeing this guy
and the communication gap does bother me a bit because I do see him as someone I would date long term but I've also accepted if things don't turn into something more.

I've never been in an exclusive relationship before so I think that could explain why I'm taking this a bit serious. I've been told by friends to date around which I've tried but I've never had interest in that. While I'd like to be in a committed connection, I've also accepted that certain relationships only last a certain amount of time and don't expect potential suitors to be my life partner (unless it ends up that way).
