I've been feeling lonely a lot these past days, most of the times thinking about my past relationships. I installed Tinder and started swiping for some days now. I wasn't going anywhere on that though, no matches no likes anything (I know that is subjective to my personality or mostly my pictures, if talking about Tinder). But, rather than helping me find a partner, I think it is doing a reverse effect on me making me feel more alone plus some girls post revealing pictures that mess with my mind and gives me a feeling of binging in my old habits again.
Yeah it will affect your reboot if you keep swiping, youre just feeding the addiction, i would say uninstall it for now, go through the 90 day reboot time and maybe then start looking for someone if you feel like its the right thing to do
You said it yourself, is not helping you at all. One of the rules in my 100 days hardmode attempt is no dating apps.
Call my a cynic, but I think casual sex is not much different from fapping. There are many threads on this debate, I don't want to start one here. If you're lonely, I'd get a girlfriend instead of a Tinder.
Me and the boys in installed tinder about a month ago because we were bored. Got a couple matches collectively and had so fun matches. But after awhile you're just swiping and it gets boring. Once things started getting busier for some of us and tinder didn't really matter anymore, we simply uninstalled it. Put your energy into yourself and things will happen to just fall right into place.
Stop swiping and delete that app. I failed many times on tinder. Tons of girls on there wearing revealing clothing. It’s literally porn but it’s just another version of it. You think it’s not a big deal but you’re doing more harm than good. One thing will lead to another. Sooner or later you’ll have your dick in your hand and fail. Delete ALL your triggers bro
Glad you decided against it, I was considering it lately also, but I thought it's rolling the dice big time. One thing I might add, is that apps like this really play into the novelty factor. Sure, the girls might not be naked, but seeing so many in a short period of time cannot be good for a brain that's trying to disassociate with pixelated novelty from seeing many women on a screen.
I really thank you all for replying in this thread. It adds to the clarity in taking wiser decisions, every feedback is valuable and helps me strengthen my commitments towards being a better version of myself .
