Tinder, Bumble, Facebook Dating, they are all a joke.
I've had good luck lately on Hinge. Went on several dates and am really starting to develop a nice relationship with one in particular. I'm in my early 40's and I had tried these apps without much luck about a year and a half ago not long after my divorce. Like you, I didn't have much luck and I gave up. I know it sounds cliche but I focused on myself ever since then. Spent more time with my children and family, traveled more, been in the gym and getting in shape, going to church, etc. Basically all the good advice I read on this board. A few weeks ago I decided to give the dating apps another try and this time around it's going great. I updated my pictures and apparently the new pics are much better because I'm getting a lot of likes. I think it's because I'm happier and healthier all around. Also I think women dig the travel pics.
TLDR: get in shape, travel more and take a lot of pics. After that, update your profile and the action will come. Good luck

As an experiment I unpaused my old Hinge profile and left it open for a day to see what would happen. Lots of little “ likes” , way more than expected, and a few from nice looking woman. But oh my the rest….
I guess they expect I’ll send em a response. Honestly, the thought of responding to anybody on a dating site semi disgusts me now. Not sure why. About to put it back on pause. I think we are at some point of Cultural Dating Fatigue where these sites just bore the hell out of people. Women even more so than men. I bet these ladies get some real winners. I just like meeting IRL through attraction, flirting, old girlfriends, old friends, intros through friends, etc. OP should do that.
