How would this work? Say I have a match (I like her, she likes me). What's next? I'm guessing a few video chats, then a road trip/flight to see her. Then what?

  The idea is people are hyper mobile now due to the changing landscape of work. I shared some data here: https://blog.fairytrail.app/2019/08/why-i-made-fairytrail.html https://blog.fairytrail.app/2019/08/why-i-made-fairytrail.ht... I re-did the calculation with a focus on intra-USA dating. For the average city, it increases by 26531%. 1. Open to dating range 25%. That's a guess though. 2. Regarding the 5% instead of 20% attractive, that's already factored due to the 25% open to long distance variable. We want to see how many people are open to dating, not 100% all targeting marriage. Turns out many people use dating apps because they want more fun and friends in their lives: https://www.toptal.com/finance/business-model-consultants/online-dating-industry https://www.toptal.com/finance/business-model-consultants/on... That's an interesting article. The insight is every city has its own type of people and in LA, I guess that's the type.

    I’ve read the piece on your blog - you write well. I can relate to your life experiences and the outlook. Yet you don’t really answer my question - how would this work? Is this app intended strictly for digital nomads? Are there many girls interested in dating them? Ultimately it all comes down to the quantity and quality of people you can get onto your app. You must provide a better selection than what’s available in a bar/night club, because that’s still #1 place where single people go to meet other single people. To be honest I don’t see how you can compete with the big guys [1] but hey, maybe you’re on to something! :) [1] https://www.toptenreviews.com/best-online-dating-sites https://www.toptenreviews.com/best-online-dating-sites
