- 8f2ab37a-ed6c 6y agoI handle it the same way I do fund raising or hiring for a position. You don't slowly drip the work over the years, instead you go all in and try to get it over with as soon as possible. In other words, that spend tends to be spiky. You go all in for a couple of months, swiping, boosting, super-liking, building a giant funnel top. Hopefully a few people make it through and you both agree in the end that it's a long-term match, and you can immediately delete the apps and focus on building something meaningful together. Ideally to never have to swipe again, at least at this point in my life. The same can work if you're trying to "play the field", it's just not where I'm at anymore at this point.
- blovescoffee 6y agoFair enough. I just figured $300-400 a month meant upwards of $5k/yr to possibly increase the number of matches you get. Could you compare what that kind of spending gets you versus going to picking up dates the old fashion way? I've tried Tinder in the past and it was fine but I never really felt obliged to spend money on it. Maybe because I was in college and didn't have much cash on hand.
