In a perfect world, you’d meet Mr Right on the streets, fall in love, and ride off into the sunset together. This is real life, however, where finding a partner can be as rare as finding a Birkin on sale! So many people are now connecting via dating apps that they are now the number one way couples meet. Yep, meeting potential partners at a brunch or a book club meet-up has been replaced by swiping right on a dating app during the lunch break at work. Yet, navigating the wide virtual dating world can be overwhelming and frustrating, which is why we decided to make things a little less complicated by sharing tips that will make finding a mate online less stressful for you.
Spend… If You Have To
The free dating apps are fine to start with, but there are also some great dating apps that charge a subscription fee. Do your research online and, if you find that subscription apps have the kind of crowd you’d like to mingle with, put some money down. Additionally, almost every dating app comes with a VIP sign-up section that grants you access to a larger pool of potential partners, and also allows you to better control dating preferences.
Don’t Be Shy About Reaching Out
A lot of women feel shy about being the first to text on a dating app, but why should you? It’s 2024 and, if you find someone interesting on dating apps, go for it! These old-fashioned rules of men speaking first have even been obliterated by a few dating apps including Bumble, in which the only option is for the woman to initiate a conversation.
