As promising as dating apps can be, using them often feels like a constant cycle of matching and ghosting. One moment, you're hitting it off with someone, the next you're wondering how can a person be this delusional.
So we at Bored Panda decided to dig deeper and figure out what keeps us in this limbo. Below, you will find a list of people explaining why they got unmatched, and it perfectly illustrates the chaotic reality of modern dating.

Richard Pennington 1 year ago
I have a few friends who are 6ft-plus women. But unfortunately they're not on the market (either married or in long-term relationships, usually with men who aren't as tall as they are). But then I'm 6ft-1 myself (was 6ft-3 in my younger days) - I'm now 65 and widowed. As a church organist, I attended the wedding of the daughter of one of these tall women. The photos are hilarious. All of the bride's family towered over the groom (including the bride's younger sister, who must have been about 12 at the time).
As dating coach Hayley Quinn explained to Bored Panda for our publication on the best Tinder profiles, you can never know if you will hit it off with someone you matched on a dating app because most will have people seeking a mix of relationship styles.
"If you are looking for something casual, Feeld app specializes in offering explicitly casual connections: as you may imagine profiles are more 'visual'. On the other hand, a platform like Match has a huge amount of criteria you can search for online, making it better adapted to people seeking meaningful connections. The trick here is to really identify what relationship you're seeking, then clearly communicate that through your profile and opening messages," Quinn explained.

OMG, many years ago. My mom and dad divorced after 17 years of marriage and mom started dating about 5 years after. I remember the first guy she let us meet. Was helping her finish setting the table and asked if she wanted me to get the cutlery. Dude asks " what's cutlery". I got a dirty look from mom when I replied, table tools, you know eatin irons.
The dating coach thinks that being unique is very important in online dating. "With so much choice it's too easy for people to become banner blind and not realize what an amazing option you are," she said. "In terms of quick fixes make sure your profile is a cliche-free zone ('looking for my partner in crime...') and that you always state things specifically rather than generally."
"For example, saying, 'I like to travel,' is nowhere near as attention-grabbing as, 'already googling my first post lockdown trip to Thailand. (Sidenote: do you like Thai food?)' Finally, ensure you write your profiles in a way that's conversational and informal: a fun hack to help you with this is to dictate your profile first, to get more of your personality into it."

this is a scammer. Anyone can chat on any platform. Trying to move you to another platform is so that they don't get a TC violation when they ask for/solicit money. In our country it's whatsapp. As soon as you match someone attractive they say "hey can we move to whatsapp" and after that the money requests start.

Using a form of humor (sarcasm) doesn't mean you actually have a sense of humor. One is outer; the other is inner.
With so many dating websites and apps out there, it has become normal to use online dating to meet someone—there are about 40 million Americans who do so.
And even though eHarmony claims that 27% of young adults are using online dating sites (which is up 10% from 2013), new findings suggest it's neither better nor worse than getting to know a person in real life. At least in terms of success rate.

One study, published in the journal Psychological Science, claims it's actually impossible to figure out whether or not people who have the same values and character traits will fall in love. "Attraction for a particular person may be difficult or impossible to predict before two people have actually met," Samantha Joel, a University of Utah psychology professor and lead author, said in a press release.
"A relationship is more than the sum of its parts. There is a shared experience that happens when you meet someone that can’t be predicted beforehand," Joel explained.

This one, I completely understand. She has no way of knowing if you were stalking her or what.
The paper, which used speed-dating data, confirmed what online dating skeptics have been saying for years: computer-based algorithms can't predict if two people will feel that indescribable connection, that special something. Yes, computers might be able to predict how much someone would desire someone else, or how much they would have in common, but they probably can't pinpoint exactly what makes two people fall in love (yet).

Carbonara actually does have an interesting history. There are two main theories (beside it's lower class origin, which is par for the course of pretty much every Italian dish). One is from a profession: Carbonari were Coal delivery men. Also there was a secret society called "I Carbonari" who were revolutionaries. Almost impossible to compare to modern politics, in the US or Italy. The smart money is on the profession of coal handlers.

Most likely would forget it and go like 'the same procedure as last year, miss Sophie? -- the same procedure as every year, James.'
After they ran the numbers, the researchers were surprised to discover that they were unable to predict even one couple that was a match. "We found we cannot anticipate how much individuals will uniquely desire each other in a speed-dating context with any meaningful level of accuracy," Joel explained.
"I thought that out of more than 100 predictors, we would be able to predict at least some portion of the variance. I didn't expect we would find zero."

I can't drink, for medical reasons. When I was still in the dating scene, I can't tell you how often it happened that I'd get matched with someone, we'd start talking on the phone, I'd invite them over for dinner, they'd ask what kind of wine they should bring, and I'd say, "Makes no difference to me, if you want some, bring some, but I can't drink." Suddenly they can't wait to get off the phone, but they still insist that "of course we'll get together on Friday!" *This* Friday comes and goes with no further contact, *next* Friday comes and goes, and that's when it dawns on me that somehow, "I can't drink, so bring whatever you want" apparently means, "You disgusting alcoholic, how dare you!" *Eyeroll*

His loss, but I'll add this perspective. I've always been a one-glass of white wine drinker, maybe two if I'm on vacation or it's a celebration that goes on for hours. In the early days, many of my friends were heavy drinkers, blackout drunks, etc. So now they're in recovery for the rest of their lives. Some are cool if people drink around them, and some struggle. If we go out, I feel lousy ordering a drink in front of them, so I get iced tea which is fine, but sometimes I would have really enjoyed a glass of wine with my dinner. Maybe people are projecting they'll have to make a sacrifice they're not willing to make.
Ladytron 3 years ago
This one is though. I don't think any of them were in the wrong really and I understand the unmatch. I have a love hate relationship with alcohol, it has created issues in the past and I have decided the best action is to stay sober. I'm mostly fine with people drinking around me (get-togethers, parties, after work etc) but I do secretly feel very uncomfortable when I go out in a more close/intimate setting with my partner (or a close friend) for dinner for example and they drink a couple drinks and get tipsy while I sip on water. And I can understand that someone who drinks want to be able to drink in those situations and the other persons discomfort could bring them down. I wouldn't date me if I was a drinker and if I was dating now I wouldn't choose someone who found beer/wine to be their first important question.

Stop downvoting Monkey Mummy. Having paid for an expensive doggo is not a crime. Bit stupid but still not ban worthy. We had a fairly expensive breed dog when I was a kid because my parents honestly thought they were regulated. Our baby went blind because of bad genes at two years old and we reported that the parents were carriers for the gene. We got yelled at and the same dogs were used to breed more puppies because they were dog show champions. one fourth of the puppies went blind and they just kept doing it and selling them at a premium.

I don't consider them to be in the same genre to be comparable. Star Wars is more science fantasy were Star Trek is more science fiction. Now there is a lot of fairy dust thrown around in Star Trek (Tachyon particles) but Trek is closer to reality. Easiest example is the flip phone. Hand held ultrasound and cellphone combination is like a Tricorder. Obviously the tablets from The Next Generation. For Replicators we have 3D printers. The closest thing from Wars is robots. So now we can all get along because the only thing they have in common is sharing half a name. Join us next week in Star Talk, we will be discussing which intellectual property benefited the most from the lose of it's original creator.
Bender Bending Rodríguez 3 years ago
I also don't think they are same genre. Only common thing I find in two of them is space and aliens. For me themes which Wars seem to be based on is more political and for trek more explorative. If I have to compare Wars I'd compare it with The Expanse on Amazon. Then there's BSG which I think is more about survival. I might be wrong on all of this points but this is how I see them.

Who wears shoes in bed though. Yuk. I say you dodged a bullet.

I would unmatch you too. Dealt with that kind of negativity in my last relationship, don't need another mom, thanks.

I was sort of involved with what turned out to be a total AHole of a guy a few years ago.. after I told him I didn’t want to have contact anymore he said he’ll keep talking about his dog because he knew I would continue talking to him then… wrong! As absolutely gorgeous as his dog was, I wanted nothing to do with the owner..

FM stands for Football Manager; a video game. Proudie is a gamer who streams and has a YT channel regarding Football Manager. Guess not everyone is into gamers.

If you can't add to the convo in SOME way or another then you get unmatched. I swear 90% of the time my matches do the same s**t. I try to actually spark a conversation and get met with....Ok...or when I say how's your day been treating you they respond with...fine and then nothing else......Girl you matched me and said hey first like WTF?

Not saying this should be the norm and likely (who am I kidding, definitely) gonna get downvoted, but as a guy who has had enough experience with this to NEVER want anymore, I get where he's coming from. Not saying that all Chinese girls are like that, but you'd be surprised about the people you match with on Tinder.

Online dating is wild, but most of these were unmatched for having a sense of humour?? I have a bf, but if it ever ends, l'm doomed.

Exactly what I said. They seemed to get mad and unmatch when I was impressed with the comebacks/responses.

Are these real reflections of the dating world? These people cannot construct a coherent, grammatically correct sentence with accompanying punctuation. This is embarrassing.

If you can understand and comprehend what they're saying, I don't see an issue. If you can't, and you really do want to know what they are saying. Then just ask, lol. But I think we both know you already know what's being conveyed.

I think these posts are a prime example as to why people are having such a hard time dating these days, most people make snap judgments in the moment (no one is at their best all the time), rather than spending time to get to know someone. They treat dating like they are picking something off a menu, thinking they can pick "just the right person".

I think you've got it 100%. If everyone on these sites considered every single match as a real possibility, they'd have a few serious relationships and eventually settle down. Instead, half of them unmatch or stop talking after the slightest indication of a difference of opinion or unaligned interests - which honestly is what makes most friendships or relationships interesting - and then eventually give up on it altogether. It's a shame.

Back in the day when I spent way too much time on icq I was chatting for a while with this Canadian guy who was in the navy or something. One day he sends me pics of his biiiiig muscular arms and chest and asks me if I find him handsome. I tell him that I honestly find him to be too muscular. He blocked me right there. Lol. So his big-o-rexia was hurt by some rando girl on the other side of the planet. Talk about a fragile macho-ness! 😁

I was just saying today how I find super muscular guys unattractive. My husband said I had nothing to worry about. LOL.

I matched with a girl one time who was vegetarian. I'm most definitely not a vegetarian but she knew that and otherwise seemed nice enough. However, she got really mad at me when she mentioned eating fish and I was like "wait, i thought you were a vegetarian". By definition, that makes no sense. To start with, I was genuinely confused. But then she started talking down to me, so I sent something sarcastic about how I never knew there was such a thing as a plant-based fish and she blocked me 😆

Honestly, many of these are funny; some are even witty. Did a sense of humor die at the same time proper spelling and grammar disappeared?
