Once you realize their business model incentivizes them to not get you a life partner because then you'd stop using the app, they kinda don't make sense to use.
I liked what bumble did with the "lifetime premium". It gives them an incentive to actually get you a match.
Coincidentally... I met my current girlfriend on Bumble after trying a litany of apps over the course of years... Definitely not saying it's a good or easy option though. Part of it is that I'm picky, but I treated it a lot like a job for years to get this relationship.
Met my wife on Bumble and we just had a baby in June
Congratulations :)
Wait until you find out that she isn't real, and you've been transferring almost all your savings of semen to one nasty guy in Nigeria...
(lol, this presumes you haven't even met your "baby" yet, only believed in the cute photos your "wife" sent of them, since she still needs a bit more money (probably crypto or giftcards) to be able to afford the transport to come live with you!)
Hopefully, it's a very different story. Anyway, congratulations!
