I’ve been using Tinder and Happn for a long time and have previously used Lexa, Relatieplanet and another such site. I thought it was all interesting and the ‘psychological side’ of it was well explored too; What works in your profile text, what doesn’t… How it works If I post less pretty pictures of myself (still dates, every single one of them said “You’re actually much prettier than your pictures”), that’s something.

I may have viewed many of these 47,842 profiles over time. But I also got dozens of dates from him. Tinder and Happn in particular have worked well in this regard. There are of course also fake profiles (also women promoting their professional services or Onlyfans profiles), but you can easily filter them out yourself.

Seriously, Tinder is a lot more fun and successful than people think. It’s just a matter of how you feel about it… If you can’t handle the swiping for 3 days and you only have 3 people not talking, then this is not your way of meeting people.
Are you comfortable, do you understand that people sometimes come out of boredom, but are actually dating seriously and leave your conversation “open” in case something goes wrong on the serious date (maybe you do it yourself sometimes!) Having a lot of fun with it.

You can easily get a few dozen matches within a few days. If you don’t get any responses to your messages, consider whether your approach could be more fun. Try to be really unique and stand out from all the lusty cousins ​​on the app (because the amount of nasty spam women receive on the app isn’t even funny anymore).

By the way, where you go on Tinder seems to make a big difference. I lived in Amsterdam at the time, which seemed very different from beating up in a farming village.

Finally, I see that the gentleman from the charts has swiped almost everything to the right (that means “like”). Tinder’s algorithm gives your profile a low score. So it doesn’t surprise me that he has “only” 298 games.
If you’re a bit more critical, you’re 10 to 25% more likely to swipe right, max, and I think that’s normal behavior. Then you won’t end up “draining” Tinder and will be shown more of you. Somewhere behind the scenes, you can get a score on the number of likes and matches you get compared to the swipes you make.
