People seem to just want to hook-up but never date. I seem to always start falling for my hook-ups after a while. What am I doing wrong? Live in NYC.

You’re not doing anything wrong, It’s NYC. Everyone’s constantly trying to trade up and it sucks.

It's not just NYC anymore. It's many places. Thanks Grindr and Le Apps.

Same in LA too. In fact, they don’t even want to be friends. They just want to hook up 😭

Maybe date someone older who is over the hookup mentality? Sucks if you aren’t attracted to older people. But just an idea.

What’s your opinion on what I wrote on my Grindr profile? “I am looking for a top who wants to have fun. If you’re not mobile, don’t hit me up. If you’re only here to collect pics, don’t hit me up. If you’re here to waste my time, then definitely don’t hit me up. Some of you talk big game over message but don’t live up to that expectation in person. I am tired of the flakes and the last minute excuses. I love di*k but some of you can be di*ks.”
