What Are Dating Apps For?

Kris Wood829 06-Mar-2019

There is so much debate about apps like tinder, with different views, uses, etc. The bottom line is if it’s a dedicated free dating app then it’s going to be perceived by a lot of guys and girls as a hookup tool. To be living in a world that believes otherwise is bordering on delusion.

We all know that marriages have happened from tinder, what does this have to do with anything? People have found their love on Dungeons & Dragons. Does this mean that we should all go looking on video games for partners?

What Are Dating Apps For?

Sure, I’ve heard of people getting into relationships from using apps but obviously, that is going to happen regardless, whether at work, online, at the bus stop, clubs, school, anywhere really. It’s all smart marketing by online dating companies to say “look what happened to them, this could be you too”. Some people make millions from music, doesn’t mean that there’s a high possibility, it’s just statistics and success will always fill up part of the pie chart.

I’m not saying you will never find a wife or husband on tinder I’m simply saying that if this is your goal then there are far better alternatives than free apps. Walking around with a blindfold over your eyes thinking that just because “you know someone who has found their partner on a dating app” doesn’t mean this is the norm.

If you want a relationship then the smartest option is to look for this in the right place as well. Putting all your eggs in one basket creates a higher risk of breakages if there’s a bump. Services that screen people more vigilantly, require more details and effort, will increase your chances or meeting long term partners as people just looking for a hookup dating will most likely be more inclined to use the easy option - Install/Swipe. Services that require you to spend money and time will weed out a massive proportion of time wasters.

Save yourself the hassle by looking for the correct things in the correct places.

There is nothing wrong with dating apps, they serve a purpose, provide a high in demand service and fill a gap in the market, nothing more nothing less.
