You know how the cycle with dating apps goes.Hopeful and filled with excitement, you sign up. You upload your most flattering and seductive photos, add quirky comments to portray your excellent sense of humor, and start the swipe.The apps'll give you fun, that's for sure. And so, so much more you never signed up for.Hours go by as you mass-swipe through entire populations, hoping to find that one needle in the haystack. Conversations with strangers fizzle out within minutes. Your carefully constructed profile has enough inspiration to draw from to craft the perfect opener. Yet some folks still resort to a low-effort one-liner. Or a GIF. Your hope turns into disappointment. You get annoyed or bored, rage-quit, and swear to never go near the apps again. Until the intrinsic human need for connection draws you back in. What if, this time, it'll be different? What if, this time, yoú approach it differently?Gracia reinstalls the app to give online dating one final try.
