A hammer is for hammering objects. Where does it say it's for hammering nails? A dating app is for finding people who are looking/available. Where does it say it's for short term relationships? > My point is that if your goal is long term relationships, you will likely have better luck using other tools designed for and more frequently used for that. Thinking that using one dating app instead of another dating app is magically going to save you from your SO leaving you is maybe not the right mindset here. Finding soulmate is about exploration. But the apps are all the same and simply show people who are actually looking so you don't have to guess if it's okay to chat them up. Short or long, that most people themselves don't know (but they may think so) because it depends. Are you the kind who would not want to do the work and just assume because you met on the long term dating app you don't need to shower every day? etc. If they say up front they want a hookup then sure but I haven't met anyone like that.
