do you guys think about online dating that? So they're useful. A complete waste of time. I had my experiences online, Dean, but acts like Christian mingle in harmony. And all of them, but no luck. So what's your guys? Thoughts?
I feel like it's been the only platform now that we can have like dates and stuff like that but the whole guessing game dude like who's gonna do the first move I hate that shit that's complete waste of time
Yeah, and also it really depends on like what kind of day you have to use because I like the day naps Where you like you match with someone like they like you they like you back And then it's like that'd be easier matching and be easier to message them
So like sometimes I may use apps like Christian Mingle or eHarmony or something like that, which you have to like find your match individually, not like match with them, but like you click on a profile and you message them and it's like you have a good chance they're not gonna respawn back.
They may not respond back because they're very likely they're not really interested in you so they just ignore you basically So but they match with you I mean they have some interest like on apps like tinder or just like some other matching app like you
And yet again is that there could be a chance that they may not even respond to you on near either So I mean it just depends It's kind of hard to start conversations with people you don't even know especially when it comes to day naps and stuff like that So yeah, it depends
You know what, it is a double-edged sword for me. Because if your intention is to have fun and you're just bored and want to talk to people, then it's not really a complete waste of time. On the other hand, if you're looking for love...
It really depends because there are people that have success stories in online dating apps. But of course it's not 100% people would like to play games and I don't know.
you know yourself better than anyone else so if you know for a fact that it's not for you then get out of that online dating app and just meet people naturally organically
I agree with that because it's like I used to day nets for like Maybe five years or so and I became very good friends with a lot of people but Yeah, not like for a serious relationship or anything yet So yeah, I understand
Oh my god, it's a complete waste of time honestly. 80% of my matches ended up being good friends, and then the 20% are just like potential dates, but they end up being assholes.
Yes, exactly. I always ended up being friends with people like that. And I may stay in touch with them, but they're not interested in a relationship with me for some reason. So, yeah, I know how that feels. 100%.
It is good though to meet new friends and meet new people and everything like that, so I mean it's not a a huge loss of a deal, but like relationship would be nice though, you know.
Whenever I end up with a good match, we usually end up following each other on Instagram. And like from what I saw, probably half of them are already in a relationship from a dating app. I don't know how they do it. I'm too scared to ask.
Yeah, that's true. It's like every time I meet someone I always want to get them off the off the messaging, off the messenger on the dating app and then like go to either a texting, original texting, Instagram, Facebook or something like that.
probably snapchat too it's probably the no like actually I prefer probably regular texting or snapchat probably and maybe sometimes Facebook but it just really depends
Here in the Philippines, there's kind of like a stigma when it comes to like dating apps. You can only have them on your Instagram but not on Facebook because sometimes you don't know if they're crazy and there's a lot of personal stuff on Facebook if you post a lot.
I've got to mention earlier that sometimes depending on which app or which dating service online dating service I'm using but a lot of times I get matches from like people I especially get viewed a lot from people from like Brazil.
Do you ever get matches from people from like other countries and stuff like that? I'm like, the thing is about it, I mean, me as a Christian, you know, it's like, it really depends.
Like as a Christian you believe by faith that God can work out the details and everything in my Christian perspective of it. But it's like it could work but it just really depends on you know what you believe.
To a certain point it is a waste of time. You have to keep repeating yourself about your story, who you are, to everyone you match with, and then in the end it doesn't even last. So, it depends if you-
I would not say that it's a complete waste of time because I did meet people on the dating apps that are okay and some Some of them are really looking for a relationship But it depends really on what they're looking for and you have to be careful about that
Yeah, I understand you. I made a lot of friends using online dating apps and I still stick connected with some of them, but a lot of them are long distance in a way, so it doesn't really...
It was very unlikely it was going to work out in a way, but we still made friends and everything so Yeah, that's okay though making new friends is Always good, too.
