Can someone explain to me why guys are incapable or unwilling keeping the conversation going on bumble? If you respond to my initial chats then why don’t you ask any questions in return?

Ah, welcome to what most guys face with women on apps.

Time to impress them a second time!

Here’s what I found out from dating my bf. He used to be the absolute worst texter (I would need to triple text and sometimes I’d get ghosted for days).

Sometimes he sees it and just makes a mental note of looking back but then never gets to it. So he’s not intentionally ignoring but texting is not his top priority (it goes something like Reddit>9gags>news>text)

A mix of things...might have second thoughts on their level of attraction to you, got busy with work or other things in life, more interested in other women on apps, or bored by the conversation and don’t think it will go anywhere. Sounds like you shouldn’t waste your time thinking about them! I think most guys would say that women also don’t always respond in the situation you described

This ain't a gendered problem, everyone sucks at texting. It's not just Bumble either.

I have been wondering this myself. The attractive guys on apps never match with me and when they do, the conversation never goes anywhere! often it feels like pulling teeth and I just give up because they cannot hold my interest with their poor conversational skills so I often forget about it entirely and go weeks without logging in or checking the messages

SOS
What are some strategies or tactics you have developed which are very successful in small markets (I'm talking SUPER small)? I feel like I've thrown all my darts and some markets still can't find talent.

Some things I've tried, here in Canada:

- non-profit/employment centers
- indeed headunting
- getting field/hiring managers to post around town
- getting on local FB groups
- local schools if there are any
- physical posters
- newspaper/old media (not great)

Ideas needed 😭
