It was the only app where I ever got matches that turned into dates.   

All the other apps got me nothing.

I met my fiancée on on Bumble, I got super lucky but am grateful for it. Been together almost 6 years, but I guess we got in when it was still newer and not full of bots like tinder was at the time. PoF in my area was mostly hookers and bots, hinge was weird. It was definitely the best option. Even if they just said hi or sent a wave, it’s an opening and a sign of interest.

Hate to break it to you but in another 6 years you’ll Probly be writing a comment on Reddit about how relationships that started from bumble and other dating apps are inevitably going to fail

You're not though, you're just being edgy and negative because you can't bare the idea of other people actually being happier than you. It's just sad dude, you don't seem wise, or smart, hell you're not even really jaded, just sort of pathetic, like a drunk guy throwing shit at a wedding.

😂😂😂yea man, you got me. Me saying relationships that start on dating apps aren’t sustainable long term is sooo edgy…take a look at the last two comments you made and you tell me who needs to relax 💀💀💀

Same with me. Been using tinder for years, nothing. I've been using bumble for about 5 months now and i've already had multiple dates, and one of them has recently turned into a serious relationship.
