I haven’t had one since 2024 and it’s amazing.
@lidarichardson
i have been doing it halfheartedly for so long and i was like what are we even doing here
@brigid
i quit in 2020 and will never go back
@lidarichardson
I’m proud of us (ok mostly you, for me it’s been like 10 hours)
@brigid
the beginning is the hardest part!!
@hellomotto
Firstly, this icon photo is sending me! Secondly, this is my first summer ‘dating-app’ free and I must say…the in person adventures are far more interesting than could have imagined. There’s romantic tension everywhere! In-person dating is back like a snack bbydoll.
@lidarichardson
Omg this is inspiring. Every time I get flirted with in person I’m like…like from the movies???
@eeeee
is this a squad and can i join?? i’ve been flailing on hinge trying to bounce back from a super sad breakup & it’s doing nothing for me.
@lidarichardson
Omg welcome!! Man I really hear you, I don’t have good answers for dating outside the apps (taking a break rn for multiple reasons) but you’re definitely not alone in finding them kinda empty and unfulfilling. It seems like we really need an alternative!!!
@katezellmer
I hate to be this person but I did this (after my bumble match gave me mono and cost me $3k in medical bills) and then the past three people I dated I just met in the world. You can do it!
@lidarichardson
No that’s beautiful thank you for the encouragement
@hannahn
My Hinge inbox inspires about the same romantic excitement as my Microsoft Outlook inbox at work, so I should probably follow suit.
@lidarichardson
Yeah that’s how I was feeling for like years how is it so bad on there??
