I'm tired of being single. Spent this weekend trying to meet a guy and couldn't find anyone where the interest was mutual or that I was really attracted to at all. What am I doing wrong?

There are no best practices when it comes to finding someone you would like. Be happy, be patient and don't make it a life goal. There is surely someone out there who you will end up with, just keep looking. Also, leaving it a bit on destiny helps too! Good luck! :)

Tinder, and meeting the people in person for dates sooner rather then texting for ages, was good to me. I'm also just a really intense human so usually a guy was either running away after the first date or planning a second one before the first was over, hahahaha. I guess for me the key was always about being super true to myself (rather than trying to be artificially overly polite, etc) and seeing what happened next. Met a great guy on tinder, he was a total gentleman in the spaces and times when one actually wants a guy to be a gentleman, and 5 months later it's still awesome. Hope that helps.
