How is Tinder in your country?

From what I understand it’s okay for a bit of quick fun but if you want to meet someone with potential for more real relations then match is still the best. Maybe others too?

But you can’t beat meeting people in real life.

Just curious, is that a thing to be proud of where you live? Genuinely curious as to why this would be a thing working at BMW
The overall reputation of the app has gotten a lot better over time. It's no longer considered as a pure hookup app so a whole lot more people actually use it right now.
I don't know about the BMW thing though xD

Quite a lot of attractive women but they are all working in the finance/banking industry and looking for people to invest in the products they are selling. A few catfishes as well. I uninstalled after a month.

I'm from Singapore where lots of women are gold diggers.

Terrible that a lot of woman in the world think that Tinder or other paid dating phone apps/websites are the only way to meet someone. What happened to humanity where people think they have to pay or consider it normal to have to pay, some filthy corporation(s)/dating app/website to meet someone.

It's pretty dead. Same broads on, no one wants to pay to talk to each other. Same superficial-fucking people gloating about globe trotting, passenger princess, likes to be spoiled, eyelashes look like brooms, too much makeup, identifies through political lense, disney/marvel obsessed, Ethically Non Monogamous(what a fucking joke this is and always was), crossing eyes and sticking the tongue out with the intent of imitating anime lolis getting smashed. It is absolute trash, in fact, I could rummage through garbage and find something useful in that, versus Tinder.

This thing doesn't even need to exist and just motivated me to be more outgoing and it's quite easy to start a conversation, even if the girl is off put at first.
The good thing about getting older is... once you get it, you tend not to give a fuck and just do stuff. I spent too much of my young life complaining about shit, and I still do, but I complain about less things and more brutally honest about what complain about, lol; instead of just complaining because something is merely annoying. TLDR;Tinder is junk. I get more play IRL.

FWIW: US, CA. 50 mil radius, with international open.
Foreign girls seem more approachable in that I would want to approach some of them, versus the endless converoybelt of garbage in my local area.

My nephew and his friends went to California last year for some hip hop festival or somit (all Irish lads) they get to their Hotel and all set their Tinders to a 30mile radius (I don't know how it works) and they got tons of hits, different girls every night and fit as hell, I seen the photos, you guys have it all made, in my day you had to actually engage in conversations firsthand, same goes for the young lad in my team he's early 20's and has a wild time of it, fucker is just back from Barcelona FFS after meeting some Spanish bird on it

Back when I was single I used dating apps to find girls when I was away at a conference. Worked every time, something about being in from out of town sets expectations and the women know you are not gonna stick around, so it opens some doors that might otherwise be closed. It's an easy sell. "Hey, I'm here for a meeting, just wanna have dinner and a nice time instead of sitting on a hotel room." and it automatically says "hey, I have a white collar job that lets me travel, I'm clearly just interested in something physical, and if there is no spark, at least you get a dinner out of it with no strings attached".

There's a lot of truth to be found in comparing gen z and people from the 50s/60s.
They are both self centered, judgemental, prone to mercilessly shun the ones that don't think like them, they take the same drugs (antidepressant like xanax, cocaine, cough syrup), and they think extremely highly of themselves while having nothing in their lives to show for it...

On topic, french Tinder is also a hell hole full of business school alumni types, and extreme center neolibs.
Fortunately there's other app like hinge that have far better people on them.

Full of ladies that you have to pay

Tips for find real girls and not escorts?
Honestly? Just practice self care. If you love yourself and it's not some egocentric type shit, the girls will notice. I am not sure what else I can give for a tip.
Just, fucking take care of yourself. Work out, eat right(lol) and practice restraint and overcome emotional barriers. Emotional Barriers were my fucking bane.
Now, I vomit out everything that comes to mind.

I'd say look up Salsa and Bachata classes in your area (it's probably better if you live in a big city). Then focus on getting good, maybe improver/intermediate level and start doing social dancing.

Bachata is really popular (I'm in London). Girls love it, especially the more sensual type of Bachata.

That's the same advice my mom gives to me 😅 she is a latin music dancer and she say there's a lot of girls and few mens 😅
But i'm a nerd 😅 the best could be finding a nerdy girl 😂 but on tinder or other dating appa can't find no one but escort, every time there's a notification i take a look but is just a message from a prostitute 😅

Spot on when it come to some of those gen z pricks. Not all of them, but yeah, that is them in a nutshell.

I hope they get their future taken away from them in the form of a meteor.

😂 I'd say it's effective, you can talk while dancing, or as the lead, focus on the next move.

I'm kind of an introvert so I don't talk much and have danced with a few nerdy girls - but they rarely show up 😅

I usually won't try anything with the girls who have a permanently bored expression

I think Tinder across the globe nowadays is trash. 90% bots and scam probably in my place
Probably. I think I am going to go after this thick redhead that keeps coming to my work and asking how I have been, while making eye contact with myself, as she's picking stuff out, thinking I don't notice. I took someone home the other night and found out she lives next to this guy... small world.

Thats what happens when it becomes sexual assault to say hi to people in third spaces.

Same everywhere, it's crap.
80% are actually scam or bots. The rest is attentionwhore and relationships that won't go very far. Having tested it, it's not much use. I salute those who have managed to find someone with this kind of app, but there must be fewer and fewer of them. Instead, I've gone to some deluxe hookers. In the end, with the restaurant and the little extras, it's the same price, if not better. For a long-term relationship, right now it's hell.
