please be careful dude, it's mega bad for your mental well being and especially your self worth
Thanks. I've done it before and you are correct, there are some real assholes out there. I might get better results if I pony up some cash for a site or service.
Not to be overly pessimistic, but paying for dating apps doesn’t do much. Maybe you get a slight advantage, but don’t expect a huge difference.
The point about these dating apps is to make you desperate enough to pay. But once you pay they don’t want you to find someone and be done with it. No, they want to keep you in the app as long as possible, especially when you’ve proven you’re willing to pay.
Exactly this. Also it used to be that you would buy a subscription and that would increase the rate and quality of your matches.
That's no longer the case. Now it's all transaction based. You have to pay for boosts, special swipes and shit to be seen.
Interesting.
I was thinking along the lines of eharmony where (I think?) everyone pays to play. I understand the ploy you describe exists and I do want to avoid that shit.

Why you should never pay for online dating
