I know we're likely in the minority but damn does it suck. I often feel like online dating was EASIER years and years ago compared to now. There's just so much going on. Catfishes, sellers, people who ghost, lie, couples looking for thirds, etc. And I've tried a handful in the past, they've always got these awful pay walls and feel extremely superficial to me.

Ideally, I'd love for a dating app to rely more on someone's bio rather than looks, because people always see the selfie first. Maybe you have to exchange a certain amount of texts before photos get revealed, this would also help with people who ghost. I know the reason I never get any likes, it's because of my looks. Everything is fine and dandy until they see me. We could exchange meaningful long paragraphs back and forth but that all dissapears once I send a selfie.

I'm trying my hardest to work on myself and my looks but it's so isolating, I feel as thought I'm never gonna find the one. This might be lame, but sometimes I fantasize about the idea of a multiverse just to pretend there's a happier me out there with a beautiful girlfriend.
