    I saw plenty of women on Bumble, when the women had to message first, that had “I don’t message first” in their bio. I gave up on the apps. They are the worst thing on the planet for your self esteem and mental health.

      I tried signing up for eHarmony, back when that was a thing. I find it funny now because I’m happily married, but when I set up my profile the website basically told me that it couldn’t match me with anyone. Felt like shit for a while, but then I realized it’s the apps that are full of shit. Meeting people doesn’t take an app, and sometimes the apps proactively make meeting people more difficult.

        What are the good places to meet people? I would like to date people offline, if only i knew of popular places where other queer people meet.
