What is your opinion on online dating?

I’m curious does anyone else have a hard time just hooking up with people. By that I mean actively don’t enjoy it and would rather have a deep connection

I saw a post about virtue signaling presenting a negative viewpoint on the matter. Admittedly I had to look it up. I couldn't find the post to respond.... When I explore a subject I tend to automatically bring up the polar opposite and explore that viewpoint as well. I have several thoughts on the matter: Firstly, why is it wrong to post something, while seeking like-minded people for the purposes of possibly dating, to present your personal moral stance? Secondly, if virtue signaling is wrong then how do we not also classify as wrong those who are posting negatively about themselves? Thirdly, if someone is posting anything that includes a personal stance in the name of vulnerability, who is to judge whether this is right or wrong? Fourthly, would this particular post be considered "virtue signaling"?

And was it worth it?

I hate the idea of smoke damage, second hand smoke and so on. What sort of negotiations have worked for y’all if everything else was there?

'To be, or not to be; that is the question' is more than the beginning of a soliloquy in Shakespearean literature. Why is it becoming harder to find ones' soulmate when the culture in dating has changed altogether? Because the dating demographic had either altered, or morphed into a singular standpoint? Being single has always been a double edged sword; where the wielder gets cut more, and then gets slashed open when they themselves exit from their comfort zones altogether in hopes to find somebody on the seventh app. Who here has been in the void too long; and wishes they will have the chance to find someone no matter how much the cosmos goes against their chances? I hope so.

Votes are anonymous.

I hate the way brain operates but it's my brain at the end of the day. I don't like to think a thousand thoughts of many outcomes for people I like Because In the end they end up being sad and I end up hurting myself for no reason and I stay up at night until I can't anymore.

Aside from Boo it seems as if apps have become more expensive and also for apps where you need to pay to play. I appreciate the need to monetise but some of these prices, anyone want to join my rant

Where can a guy go to find a serious woman to date.

And then they don’t even commit to the conversation they start. Get tf outta here.

Sometimes its the simple things. Let's be real no matter who it is. They will ask you something like a suggestion for something or advice and you know 70% of the time they won't listen but there are those that suddenly tell you that their thankful for your suggestion/advice with a big smile on their face and if you know what it feels like then you know why I shared this.
