Everything I’ve watched or read online seems to indicate that dating apps suck for an overwhelming majority of people so good riddance?
What I can’t figure out is what comes next. Singles events (at a bar for ex)? Meet up type events where your doing something with other single people? Friends try to set you up with someone?
I’ve been married for 10 plus years so I have no skin in the game but it’s an interesting topic to me.

I think the plan is to start approaching people at the grocery store or attending interest based clubs/ meetups, oh and just being single.

Oof, approaching in public is stressssful. Interest based clubs/meetups seems like a solid strategy to me.

Haven’t tried it myself yet but maybe someday if someone catches my eye and seems like they might be interested
Replying to @baggins@lemmy.ca
Well good luck!

Absolutely agree! Unfortunately for myself, I live in a medium size city that doesn’t seem to have much of anything going on. About the only interest based activities available that I am not interested in is volunteering at the animal shelter. I don’t think my heart can handle that and I’d end up with 10 more cats lol
