And WTF, the advertising says "a win win for both genders". What retard wrote that? :z
I suppose the limit on the number of swipes is probably due to not using their premium service.
Anyway, I found that Tinder and Bumble are both buggy. Last night Bumble crashed on me twice, and I believe that I am given a few girls to swipe again. (Don't remember if I swiped right or left.) Also, Bumble seems not be able to keep up with my distance limitation. I don't even want to bother with 5 miles or above (as I don't drive), but I was generous and gave it 20 miles. It's giving me like near 30 miles.
Another thing I noticed is that girl seem to look better on Tinder than Bumble. Sadly, Bumble and Tinder (more so on Tinder even though they have longer profile limit) profile do not usually contain much important information that I have to entirely rely on the looks only.
Still no match or like on either Bumble or Tinder. (And I accidentally gave a few super likes on Tinder as I was trying to read more of profile. Uhh, such a terrible learning curve). It's less than 24 hours, and given that it's a week day (and that many people could have left the town.) I should probably give some more time for actual match to come. On these apps.
I got another Facebook message from the Hong Kong girl, which I had to cut off as I had to leave. (Well, besides, nothing can happen with the girl, other than doing some cam, which I am not interested) I also got a like from another Asian girl on OKC, but she lives in New Jersey. (At least 4 hours away from driving.) I swiped a few more girls, no mutual match yet, but again, I didn't give enough time for responses to arrive. I also gave a dozen or so likes so that I can keep a list of girls that I may be interested, and soon (probably tonight) I will send a few messages. I sent one message to a girl, but didn't get any response. One thing I noticed about OKC is that Asian girls who seem to visit me or like me on OKC happen to be better looking than Asian girls on either Tinder or Bumble. Sadly they are too far to make any logistics to work.
Right now, I am on a break and I can invest some time into this (answered quite a lot of questions on OKC), but I am not continue doing this for a long period time. (Investing much time and that.) I should start investigating my career and academic options soon, and some other stuff.
Oh well, I suppose I may use Tinder Boost to put my profiles up, but not feeling to do it. (Well, my profile needs to appear on the girls' tinder to get like or pass right?) I'm wondering if anyone has even seen my profile at this moment. I heard that the apps' algorithms are messed up. I read that some people who were successful in the past didn't get any successes or their match rate got significantly lowered after certain time. (Which they pointed to tinder and Bumble's introduction of paid features and other stuff.)
It's annoying that I have no clue of what's going on. Well, I'd at least like to know that I am getting rejected, then I can know whether to work on my profile or I'm not a good fit for the platform. (I don't know if it's even a rejection or not be seen at all.)
I gotta find something else to occupy myself to.
