I fucking hate dating/hook up apps. Writing a profile feels like I'm writing a resume, everytime I talk to someone it feels like a job interview. Everyone's bullshitting 'cause we've been conditioned to treat our insecurities/flaws like the fucking plague.

Speed run through that shit. If they can't hold a conversation drop them immediately. Once you actually get into a conversation, even if it's not a date it's fun. So you aren't wasting your time.
Stories like this are kinda cheesy, but it's like when a junior professional cook (I don't remember the official french names for this shit) complains to a more senior one that cutting up hundreds of vegetables is extremely boring and takes forever and they hate doing it. The older cook says "just do it faster then".
It's like that. Just do it faster.
Well I don't even get that many matches, it's just that the few I do get are all like that lol
This is one of the reason I gave up on online dating. The other being that it feels like there are three super bland people in total there but somehow each having a thousand profiles.
