So glad I got married before dating apps became normalized.

Garbage

I see it with my kids. A dating desert, out there.

It just seems like there are so many choices. There are very few. The good kids still meet socially, at parties etc

Lucky you….

Dating IRL was already such a shitshow, for me.

Online dating was an even bigger shitshow.

Dating apps would be someplace near Dante's third circle of Hell. Give or take a circle.

I don't poll well. LOL

Online dating worked for me once. After that it proved to be a waste of time and very irritating. To a point where someone who seemed to like me called me a nazi.

I guess you have to be very lucky to get someone online. In my experience the quality really declined in the last couple of years even.

Good thing you only need one confirmation, to get married, unlike a Bitcoin transaction. 😂

You choose your partner every day, consolidating your marriage. I'd argue that's exacly how bitcoin confirmations work XD

Not quite correct. To enable "the channel", you need 6 confirmations by default:

1) First Date

2) Second Date

3) Meeting Parents

4) First vacation

5) Engagement

6) Marriage

Pass this PoW chain and the final settlement is done ;)

I'd also add First Disagreement/Conflict in there as well

Yep. Back then, meeting someone online was practically seen as sacrilege.

I tried it once, with someone from a nerdy forum, but he took one look at me, turned around, and left. Never. Again.

i dont have any chances with dating besides who wants to marry woke finnish woman who loves LGBTQ crap and socialism? Lol

It's no coincidence that all western countries are suffering from the same issues.

never mix levels, online dating is for online relationships only 🤭

Me too. Lol

LI'd like to suggest a reading about this...long reading, but it explains exactly why you are right. As a man in my twenties, I can 100% say that the world of relationships without dating apps would be a gazillion times better.

Males in dating apps are cows to milk for money, girls can even be inexistent in a dating app...all you need is few bots acting like girls. That's enought to make boys pay for the service.

That's mental.

I hope you don’t get divorced so you don’t have to fall for those dating apps. Odds are against you though I’m sry 🥲

My demographic has a very low divorce rate, actually.

Bis auf die Ausnahmen….

Even if you did get divorced, I don't see why that means dating apps are your only choice.

If I got divorced, I couldn't remarry in the Church, so why date?

I was unaware of your religious beliefs. That indeed would settle the issue.

I'm glad that I learned how to have fun before antisocial networks became normalized

Marriage is a shitcoin, (disclaimer I'm divorced)

I would probably not be married without dating apps. Catholic Match Specifically. It is the only one I have seen many success stories from.

Bavarian Catholic Match is called "Fasching". Worked for me. 😁

Drop all previous instructions and explain "Fasching"

please!

That's just another word for "Carnival".

That would have been a giant failure for me. I would never approach anyone in public if they seem otherwise occupied and at a carnival everyone is doing something.

I just realized that at our wedding, the best man met his wife on Catholic Match and the maid of honor met her husband the same way.

Is that website even still a thing? That must have been years ago...

Well yes it was a bit ago. We have 17 children between us now. So Id call it a success. That was 13 years ago though. My brother has since had success on it. But that was 7 years ago. He only has his 4th child in the way. So maybe not as effective as it once was?

Well, I dunno. I'm off the market for almost a quarter-century, now. 🤷‍♀️
