I spent quite a bit of time on the apps, and I can tell you, from my experience, getting even so much as a match is a numbers game for us. Then, to get a reply, more numbers games. Carry a conversation? Good luck. Actually get to meet someone? More rare. I was lucky enough to meet one or two in person, one was a relationship that lasted almost a year. The amount of no responses was highly frustrating. The amount of stereotypical profiles was frustrating. The amount of “don’t just say hey, catch my attention!” In the profile that was otherwise the same as any other IE “probably just liked you for your dog” was sickening lol
