How to Have a Good Time on Dating Apps




Dating apps have had their ups and downs, but with so many to choose from, it’s pretty easy to find one that matches your personality, lifestyle, and even physical location (if you want to get really specific). The idea behind dating apps is really simple – you create an account on the app of your choice and start browsing through other people’s profiles; if you like someone, you swipe right on their picture; if not, swipe left.


Tips for Getting Approved

Like other dating apps, you’ll need to find someone willing to approve your profile before you can begin sending and receiving messages. (Bumble women always make the first move.) To increase your chances of getting approved—and get more matches—try answering these questions in a way that highlights your personality, not your last job title. Here are some tips for spicing up your bio ● Make it clear what type of relationship you’re looking for right off the bat. I like my relationships with men to be as straightforward as possible, so I tell people up front that I only want something casual if they message me, says Kimberly Holter, who has had success with Bumble.


5 Tips for Creating an Engaging Profile

A profile photo is an important part of your dating app presence and can make or break your chances of finding love. Be sure that you have a recent, clear photo with good lighting (not dark and shadowy, not too bright). Smile in your picture; it’s one of those if you’ve got it, flaunt it situations. Men should include some version of their height, so they look as tall as possible while women should include their weight, so they don’t appear heavier than they are. If there are certain features about yourself that you want potential partners to know right away—hair color/style or eye color for example—add them in under the Hair Color and Eye Color sections of your profile. And remember: be honest!


4 Ways to Nail the First Message

Online dating is certainly not for everyone, but it’s fun if you’re looking for new people and have an idea of what you want. But sometimes it can be hard to know what kind of message will catch someone’s eye. In any situation, it’s usually best to just follow your gut (it’s worked so far, right?). However, there are some tried-and-true ways to get conversations started that really do seem to work.


3 Places to Meet Singles

Plenty of Fish, Tinder, and Bumble: If you’re single and looking for love, there are plenty of ways to meet singles. Among them: online dating sites and apps, in-person at bars or clubs, or at work events. But remember: no matter how many you sign up for or go out with—at some point it comes down to meeting people one-on-one.


2 Types of Dates To Try First

The first two kinds of dates you should try are activity-based dates and mix-and-mingle dates. Activity-based dates involve doing something together—something active like kayaking or playing bocce—where you get to know one another while you’re doing it. Mix and mingle types of date involve going to places where there will be other people around (like your local bar) where you can talk and dance with each other and hopefully find some common interests.


1 Best Time To Start Using Dating Apps

The best time to start using dating apps is when you’re ready for a relationship, not just an easy hookup. Before jumping into online dating, it’s important that you make sure your heart is ready. This will help ensure that you have enjoyable experiences using these apps and improve your chances of success. With that in mind, we recommend starting your search for love when you’re at least six months away from wanting to be in a committed relationship. If meeting people offline hasn’t worked out well for you so far, now is probably also a good time to consider expanding your search beyond friends-of-friends and event groups.

3 Reasons Dating Makes You Feel Depressed

It’s well known that depression can come from feeling lonely, but what about when the loneliness isn’t yours? When you’re dating, whether it’s casually or seriously, you can find yourself in situations where you feel left out, rejected, or lonely despite being in a relationship. Dating makes you feel depressed because of three reasons: low self-esteem, lack of communication, and unreasonable expectations. If you can fix these issues, you won’t have to deal with dating-related depression anymore! 1) Checking your phone all the time If you’re dating and spending a lot of time with someone, it’s inevitable that you two will text each other.

Put your phone down and spend some quality time with your special someone instead. It’ll be worth it when you look back on your relationship later. Remember t...

10 Ways to Make Him Chase

If you like him, and you want him to chase you (and not lose interest) once he gets to know you, there are some things you can do to make sure that happens. Here are ten things you can do that will make him chase you and keep your relationship fun and exciting! 1) Flirt and avoid Flirting and a good first date is important because it sets you up for later. Avoid being too available; make him work for it a little bit. When he texts, don’t answer right away. Wait 2-3 hours (and if he’s waiting that long, he really wants to talk to you). This will drive him crazy and force him to chase you. It’s time-consuming but totally worth it in the end! 2) Don’t give all your attention One of the easiest ways to make a man feel comfortable is by letting him know that he has your full attention. Men are simple creatures—they want what they can’t have, and if he feels like he can walk all over you then he won’t be as interested in you. To prevent him from taking advantage of your vulnerability, only g...
