"It Was a Horror: Two ☠️ Threats in One Evening..."
(2 minutes reading)
You might be wondering about this dramatic title, inspired by a woman’s comment about her app experience. We’re using it to dive into a major challenge with dating apps—and explore potential solutions.
Take this video, for example: "Women Are QUITTING Dating Apps, THIS Is Why" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMNPtMTKuR8 .
The creator shares shocking statistics: of 200 women surveyed, 180 (a staggering 90%) had either deleted their dating apps or were taking extended breaks. Why? Many said they’d spent months, even years, on these platforms without meeting anyone.
Of course, there’s nuance here. We don’t know how these users were engaging with the apps, but the frustration is undeniable. As a result, many women are opting to search for connections offline.
Also some users have shared horrifying stories about their online experiences. For example, in the video’s comments, one woman wrote:
"I tried Tinder. 'Is it really as bad as all the women say?' It was horror. Two ☠️ threats in one evening. And A LOT of texts that count as harassment.
I don't date. I was a very happy single before I met my boyfriend in REAL LIFE. Via a hobby. We were first friends; after getting to know him, I allowed myself to fall in love.
I don’t think online dating can give you a real experience. People who desperately want a relationship radiate creepy neediness—it feels like they’re just trying to fill an inner void."
Unfortunately, this is only one of many issues people face on dating apps. Still, we acknowledge the appeal: they’re convenient, always accessible, and a familiar way to meet new people.
So, is there a middle ground? Can we combine the ease of online dating with the more authentic connection of meeting in person? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
