Fuck the apps. Admittedly that's from a male perspective. Real life works best for me because I don't waste my time with people that don't have the right vibe.

Plus, the apps thing is so impersonal. Half the fun of meeting someone is that first convo in person. Sometimes it's easier to get a clear picture of someone when they don't have unlimited time to formulate a response lol
