    Polite and Respectful Rejections Sound Like This Guy
    Aug 3 2025
    Bella is literally in the middle of a text conversation to "break up" with a Tinder guy whom she has never met in person, and writes her final text to close the chapter. What followed was a phone call, text, three voice notes, and then a final text. Still, all respectful and appreciated, but it does show sometimes how difficult it may be for some to take no for an answer.

  • Research Wrap-Up: My Experiences on Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge

    Research Wrap-Up: My Experiences on Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge
    Feb 27 2025

    After over a year on Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble trying the different features, going on dates, and learning how to put my foot down, it is finally time to consider this round of dating app research complete. These are my takeaways. Oh and a cautionary tale about checking the boxes of what you want in a partner rather than seeing the red flags for what they are...and a reminder that putting your foot down takes practice.

    Next up, Melissa and I dig into lesser-known apps... Farmers Only, anyone?
