How to Make the Most of a Dating App

How to Make the Most of a Dating App

Published by Programme B

Using a dating app and looking for love online is extremely common these days, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic struck and people have been forced to stay at home more. If you’re one of the many people who have started using dating apps, or if you’re considering getting on one or more of these apps to search for your match, continue reading to access a list of tips that can help you make the most of these handy tools. 

Be Specific About What You Want

Regardless of what dating app you decide to use (there are a lot of them out there that you can choose from!), know what you want before you dive in. In other words, write down a list of qualities that you want in a mate. These can be physical qualities, as well as things like their views on various topics, how they expect to be treated in a relationship, how they treat their partner, what their career aspirations are, if they want a family, etc. And you can also consider where your matches should be located so you can actually meet in person someday. For example, if you’re living in or near Montreal, a dating app that allows you to chat with singles in Montreal, Canada would be a smart choice. 

Post a Variety of Photos

One way to help increase the odds that you will get plenty of matches, and that they’ll be high-quality matches, is by uploading a variety of photos of yourself. Make sure that they are recent photos that showcase what you look like today, and make sure that they are clear, high-resolution images as well. Sure, you can post selfies, but avoid using filters. Again, you want to showcase your true self, and you don’t want to be misleading. But you can also post photos with your friends, as well as photos from your travels and hobbies. Use your photo gallery as a tool that will let people know what you’re all about. That way, you can hopefully reduce the odds of getting matched up with the wrong people. 

Provide Information About Yourself, but Don’t Overshare

There’s a fine line between giving too much information and sharing too little about yourself on a dating app. While you do want to go into enough detail so someone reading your profile will get a solid idea of what your personality is like and what your preferences are, you also don’t want to give out too much personal information about yourself because your profile will be viewed by a lot of strangers. Keep your safety and privacy in mind as you write up a description of yourself. Showcase your best qualities, and be prepared to share more details with someone after you get to know them better. 

Move on to In-Person Dates

The only way to really know if someone on a dating app is truly the right match for you is by meeting them in person. Sure, you can take as long as you need to get to know them as much as possible by chatting on the phone and online, but once you reach a certain point in your relationship, you’ll want to see if you’re also compatible in person. Once again, finding local singles makes this easy, so if you want to meet & chat with the right single women in Montreal, Canada, as an example, mention that in your profile. 

Bottom line: with the right strategy, you can make the most of any dating app you decide to use!
