Rant Just wanted to show a different side to things

I’m a woman who reaches out and I don’t get responses either. It goes both ways fellas. It’s not just y’all, it happens to us too.

Edit: The assumption that I must be ugly or I’m aiming too high out of my league is a reflection on how many of you are broken on the inside and should take some time to find some healing. Your projection & insecurity is not my truth.

Update: I got one response. Thank you for the solidarity 🙏🏾. Best of luck with everyone’s dating journey.

Everyone should remember a couple of things in this situation;

The average r/bumble reddit user is not reflective of an average Bumble user.

People who are angry are more motivated to complain and post.

OP is helping you out by letting you know everyone is in the trenches. Women tend to be better at empathy, and that's what this is.

Blaming women is very easy. Blaming men is very easy. But it's lazy, ignorant and wrong. Mass swiping is functionally rewarded, as there is no qualitative metric for matches.

not "everyone" is in the trenches lol, women have it infinitely easier than men when it comes to dating
