    I've been doing NoFap for 6 months now. Lately I've been on tinder I'm here to ask if there's any risk or if it's dangerous. Any thoughts or comments?

  3. if you need a dating site, this means you are not ready for a women. dating sights are crap for me any way, just speaking for my self here. it has to be natural, and just meeting with some one. I would not do it , you will not be happy in the end, I garentee there will be no happy ending, after the false happy ending. no buddy, don't get on any dating site, just you asking this question means to me, you are unsure of things . DON'T DO IT.

    Tinder, Facebook, social media - is softcore porn. Much worse so if you are a female (because of the unlimited free attention).

    In my personal experience Tinder isn't bad, only because out of the probably-hundreds of "likes" I get back maybe 2 or 3, and maybe 1 replies and then deletes their account or disappears.. or it's a fake profile. I must be one ugly dude, or all the girls in my area are REALLY superficial. I recently deleted it just because it was a waste of time..

    Well, haven't had to light a campfire for ages, but... dry birch bark is my favourite. Back in the military we used a mixture of biscuits and shoe polish, that also works surprisingly well. :)

    I struggled with this too I'm on 8 month streak was using tinder around 6 months and I came to the conclusion that I'm not gonna force anything I want to naturally meet women I feel like tinder is desperation for me and alll it does is invoke lustful thoughts I've noticed the more I just enjoy life and not take it so seriously unconsciously smiling to others or acknowleding them I'm bound to attract a beautiful women in my life I've always been told that I was attractive by friends and girls who were just acquaintances but I didn't believe I was worthy but after no pmo I feel more at peace and confident then ever before and I can deal with anything with the help from God I'm only speaking from experience but tinder just makes me lust after flesh and a lot of girls on there are smoke shows half naked if that isn't temptation I do know what is lmao

    Tinder is what you use if you want to play the STD version of Pokémon.

    Maybe just try it and make an experience for yourself. I've used similar apps like it and to me it had a similar shitty feedback loop like porn. You're basically clicking through a lot of female faces & bodies to get something that promises you joy. I felt pretty desperate while doing this.

    Why Tinder? Why not just go out and talk to people?

    Tinder is just a tool. And it can be used wisely or not. I used it to gather some experience in dating. However Tinder is also risky as you may easier relapse and very frustrating as girls often don't show up, stop responding and so on. With a girl met in real world is much easier, but if you don't have any options anyway Tinder is better than nothing. BTW. I wrote how tinder work in my country (Poland) as it may differ in other countries

    The app might hurt your social skills in general.
     
  16. I’ve never used tinder but my advice would be don't go on it in hopes to find a long term relationship. If that’s what you’re interested in.

    I knew a girl that told me she would use tinder for free food.

    If you're looking for something less sketchy, use Bumble. Otherwise, dating apps like Tinder/Bumble/OKCupid are detrimental to the modern dating scene. If you ask me, people are now more enthralled with the dopamine high they get from new matches/new dates instead of the dopamine high they get from meeting someone and genuinely becoming close with them. A majority of girls I've had the luck of meeting up with on these apps are only in it for the short haul, and they really just want to be entertained, not courted. It's sad but the truth.
