Online dating is wild. You swipe through a catalog of profiles that people (who you probably have never met) purposefully made for themselves to appear funny, smart, creative, confident, kind, positive, ambitious, well-read in the classics (but not so much that it would make them a snob), and, of course, attractive, all for the sole purpose of catching your attention and try to find someone who you could like in real life and would also fall for your 'advertisement.'
If that sounds like an exhaustive and quite chaotic quest with no guarantee for success, well, it is. And the subreddit Bumble is a perfect example of that. There, the users of this popular app share screenshots of everyone and everything they run into and let's just say that they're pretty colorful.

Why Do Men Always Manage To Turn An Innocuous Question Into Something Sexual?

Me Trying To Get To Know Someone And Their Bio Is Like
She's a single mom, child not hers, she's a virgin, her husband is her wife, because she's a lesbian, vaccinated. Loves guys names Jesus and she's an atheist 😂
Load More Replies...This chick is living her dream life cause it sure ain't based in reality.
Contact her, and find out that she needs help getting money out of Nigeria.
How is vaccinated (1) an issue, and, (2) going against anything on this list? (I mean, unless there's been a huge lesbian uprising against vaccines that the community has forgotten to send me the memo about. You'd think that would be more newsworthy, though.)
not me scrolling weirdly and thinking that the 26-62 year old guy above had this as his description ☠️
how the h311 can you be single and a virgin but have kids and a husband also lesbian, and love jesus but hate him at the same time. its giving pick me vibes from a whole adult. make up ur d@mned mind woman
My curious mind is bored with this. I already live in chaos, and I know they are just pure f'ry.
She's a single mother with adopted children. Her husband doesn't live with her or doesn't co-parent. Her husband is a trans woman who uses masculine terms sometimes, or a trans man who she married before he transitioned and still loves (but she's otherwise still a lesbian). She's vaccinated and she thinks Jesus was a smart man and a good role model but doesn't believe in a higher power. Makes sense to me.
Hey, https://sapphiclabels.carrd.co/#home this website explains why a lesbian having a trans male partner doesn’t make them a lesbian, you just have to click on the flag to move.

I don’t find tgis that bad. He doesn’t want to say he owns a living being, what’s the problem?
Oofda; Was I Too Harsh?
Dude, if someone gave me the opportunity to nerd out I would take it with great joy!
He Really Just Mansplained Me My Vagina You Can’t Make This Up
I love it when people without vaginas try to tell people with them how they work. Apalling. The amount of unmitigated gall is staggering.
Sometimes You Just Gotta Say It
And I’ve Officially Deleted Bumble
Her-"First thing you asked is if I have big boobs?!?!?" Him-"No" Her" Oh thats alright then."
I Thought I’ve See It All
1 Hour On Bumble.....i'm Done. I'm Happier Single. I Just Wanted To Know About The Avocado
hey man, don't mess with back pain. once your back goes you never get it back. blowing someone's back out is not manly or sexy.
Idk How Should I Take This
Am I Sensitive Or Is He Just Lowkey Racist??

Why Type Lot Letters When Few Letters Do Trick?

I'm so glad I got married before dating apps got really popular. I cannot imagine dating like that. Looks miserable.
Can only speak to past 7 decades, but I believe the answer is an enthusiastic yes. Across all generations. While there are likely more reasons than I can list here, I suspect the rise of FB and its successors really brought out the worst in all of us. Potential was always there, but now it has platforms, and some of those platforms reward bad behaviors.
Load More Replies...If posts like these have taught me anything, it's that someone needs to develop an app specifically for people not into hookups.
I feel like that's what bumble was supposed to be, but it got hijacked by hook up dudes.
Load More Replies...It does make me laugh when I say I'm not attracted to a certain type and women say it's the personality... Happily off online dating and having a life 😂
If it's generally like that, it's really depressing. I know as much as Bumble was founded by a woman, Whitney Wolfe Herd. She's the CEO. I believe she wanted to create a better place for women for dating. "Bumble" I guess is about bees 🐝.
These are all too relatable. And I hate it. Said goodbye to dating apps a while ago because of this stuff!
My husband and I have been together for 20 years (married for 17) and I keep reminding him that he better never f*****g die 🤣. He is my best friend in the whole world and I would seriously rather live like a lonely hermit in my house than try to enter the dating scene today. Also glad I met him when I was 17... apparently STD's are rediculously common these days 🤢... so glad we found our own isolated bubble so early on!
