Maybe an uncommon opinion, but even Grindr/Scruff can work. I use grindr and bumble, and I’ve genuinely gotten more (romantic) dates out of Grindr than Bumble

like

Hinge if you’re looking for real dates not hookups

I went in with that intention, but late 20s dudes be horny AF

like

Hinge + Facebook Dating; the latter took me by surprise and I actually like the quality of men there. You don’t even have to share your Facebook profile so it’s part of it but completely separate. Grindr is nice to see men in a new location. Tinder, and Bumble are the worst among all.

scruff or tinder

i met my last boyfriend on tinder. but that was several years ago. i feel like guys on hinge are more serious about relationships now.

Hinge I get the lowest quality of guys aesthetically, but I get the most conversations / actual dates out of. Tinder lots of good matches but impossible to have a conversation / let alone dates. Grindr is a wild card - ofc mostly hookups and some very weird stuff on there but sometimes I speak to guys who I think I wouldn’t necessarily match on other apps and I do get some decent hookups out of.

Short: Grindr for hookups (and more if lucky), hinge for dates, tinder for… ego boosting matches?

Agree about Hinge……

30 m ny/nj. US citizen. Moved as a teenager. INTJ. Single since I figured I’m not fighting the biological clock and have all the time in the world to meet someone and get settled. Things changed after I watched Akshay’s mom (Indian Matchmaking) tell him even 25 is too late and not marrying somehow messes up lives of people around him. While the show was staged, there might be truth to the latter part.
Looking for F in ny/nj. Personality: NOT Aparna. NOT Nadia but def more Nadia than Aparna.🙏

I miss the times (circa 2006 - 2010)where it was quite normal to go out and meet girls and have them take you back home for the night. Such a great time to be alive. Now, everyone is so caught up with that digital app dating life and no one goes out anymore to meet people. So sad.
