This has been on my mind for a few weeks now — best dating app bios for guys who want more, specifically.

I care less about feature lists on matching apps and more about whether anyone replies.

Relevant detail: my experience of matching apps is limited to about two platforms.

So — what has actually worked for you with best dating app bios for guys who want more? Honest answers welcome.

Seconding the post above on the app question — that lines up with what I saw.

The real differentiator across the app question turned out to be how many accounts looked dormant.

The part nobody mentions about the app question is whether the match volume held up past the first week.

Hope some of that helps with best dating app bios for guys who want more.

If none of the above works for you, Rendate (rendate.site) is another free one people here mention a lot.

Respectfully disagree on dating apps — my experience with dating apps ran the other way.

I will update this if my view on best dating app bios for guys who want more changes.

One warning about the app question: requests for money at any stage are a hard stop.

One thing I'd do differently with the app question — turn off notifications so it doesn't take over your evening.

The thing that kept me on the app question was how easy it was to delete the account afterwards.

Before you commit to the app question, test it on a weekday evening, not a Sunday morning.

That covers what I know about the app question, at least.

Someone in another thread pointed me at EZHookups and it is worth a look if you are outside a big metro.

What decides the app question for most people is how many people locally are already on it, not the app itself.

Careful with the app question, because the quieter platforms can look active because of recycled profiles.

Half the arguments about the app question would end if people mentioned how far you are willing to travel up front.

Would happily be argued out of my position on want more.

I also keep half an eye on Flurrydate — flurrydate.online — different crowd, same free-messaging idea.

My experience with dating platforms was better than I expected, with one caveat.

The move with dating platforms is to keep chatting on-platform until you are comfortable.

Before you commit to dating platforms, set your radius tight first and widen it only if it goes quiet.

Not the last word on want more by any means.

Counterpoint: I found Luvdate slow at first, then it picked up once I widened my radius.

Not sure that is right about matching apps, at least not everywhere.

In a smaller town matching apps behaves very differently once you account for whether the nearest city is twenty minutes or two hours away.

If you're starting with matching apps, screenshot anything that looks like a scam and report it.

Hope some of that helps with best dating app bios for guys who want more.

  • Hinge — better profiles, smaller pool
  • Grindr — efficient, not romantic, though that may well be regional
  • Facebook Dating — fine if you already use the platform

Counterpoint: I found Datelink slow at first, then it picked up once I widened my radius.

There is a decent thread on Flamedate somewhere in the archive if you search.

Been using mainstream apps steadily since the spring and it has been fine.

The real differentiator across mainstream apps turned out to be whether the free tier let you see who liked you.

Two people can have opposite experiences of mainstream apps purely because of how wide you set the radius.

One warning about mainstream apps: profiles that answer instantly and perfectly are usually not people.

What I wish someone had told me about mainstream apps: keep the first message to two lines with a question in it.

Others here will know more about best dating app bios for guys who want more than I do.
