Find myself 45 and single. Only the record nerd in me is happy about it. So at the insistence of a good mate and as part of the process of "moving on", I now have Hinge and Bumble profiles.
Don't worry - this isn't a sales pitch. Just curious if anyone has experience - good or bad - of either, or of the fetid swamp that is Tinder, which I've avoided.
Hinge seems better to me. Possible matches come around more than once. Location is accurate.
Bumble lists your current location, even if you're e.g. just in Ballaghaderreen for the weekend, meaning it's a left swipe from me though you might actually live just up the road.
You have to answer some questions on Hinge whereas on Bumble you can just post pics.
Bumble has a 24 hour cut-off for responses to matches so unless you're on it every day, you'll miss them.
So, any thoughts? Curious to hear from any female users. I'm guessing their experience might differ from the average male's.
