Abundance in online dating makes it harder to become curious about a person, tolerate uncertainty, or feel satisfied with our choice, writes Meehika Barua.

    They dont do that. Dudes do 100s of swipes and messages and the apps are dying for any women to respond so the men will pay.

    When i was on them not a single man would read that i said i was a lesbian and got tons of messages even saying i wanted no contact from men on said apps.

      Paying for the app doesn’t force match you with people. If women are getting 100s of dudes in their matches it’s because they’re swiping yes on 100s of dudes.

          I mean if you’re using an app that lets random people message you without you mutually liking them that’s still on you.
