I met my gf on hinge. My profile was blunt in regards to drinking and drugs. I had current pics and I changed them up often. I was open about my interests regardless of how they could be perceived. Other than the drinking and a political non-negotiable, I left the parameters of who I wanted to meet wide open.
And then the hard part: I did not “like” anyone. I waited to see who sought me out. And I chatted with everyone who expressed interest. I went out for coffee or ice cream with several people per month. I gave whoever I was talking to my undivided attention. And if it became clear it wasn’t working I was honest about it and we moved along. I enjoyed meeting people.
