I don't know how many times I have deleted my account. Let me summarize how my dating experience has been with Tinder over the past year. As a note, I rated 84% attractive using Photofeeler.com, and had many women swipe me right. I do not send nude pics, send messages to hookup or something that I would consider creepy. For the greater part, I have tried to have some with conversation until someone suggests we meet for coffee.
September 2014-October 2014 : Chatted with some women. One meetup/date seemed promising, then she disappeared into silence. I tried my name in different language characters. I somehow got ignored. Roman characters help a lot. (Account deleted)
Mid November 2014 : New account. Dated one person. Well dated. I think she was quite lonely, and it was clear that she did not want to embrace/kiss/intimacy. I went along to outings with her, but was overwhelmed by guilt, that she would be left alone. At the same time, I felt very unattractive. It went on until January, when I realised that I was very unhappy. I tried to let her know that I felt that doesn't make me feel important and that I wonder if she would be happier with the companionship of my friend's dog. She contacted me to spend time with her, but I distanced myself, saying that I couldn't make it.
I had forgotten about my account after a second date in mid December. I logged back in to delete it. Just out curiosity, I saw that her account was active recently. Was she checking on me? Reviewing past conversations? (Account deleted)
Late January 2015 - May 2015: I met up someone with whom which chatted/texted over Tinder months earlier. We got along - I really liked her. Somewhat in recovery, or fear of being hurt, I wanted to take things slow. Actually that is probably my default mode of operation - my first relationship was at the age of 30 where the woman was aggressive with for about 6 months. Nevertheless, things seemed to going along well, until I got ghosted.
June 2015: Undeterred, well okay, I didn't want to be discouraged, so I went back on Tinder. Met with one woman for a beer. Not quite compatible at all. (Account deleted)
August 2015: I try again. Fresh new photo is used for my profile which is nothing more than my name my name. Many, many matches. A few conversations were on the go. Meeting up the following week with someone for coffee is planned. I leave my account idle until that date takes place. The day before, she cancels as she tells me she still has feelings for her ex. Oddly enough I still frequently still think of the woman that I earlier in the year.
September 2015: I log in again. A few new matches. I reluctantly resume a few conversations. Nothing much goes on. (Account deleted)
Maybe I am the exception.
