Honestly after I stopped using Tinder and Bumble, I started meeting way more interesting girls through Instagram.

Instead of using dating apps, I just improved my profile a bit and started connecting with people from places I already go to like gyms, bars, studios, church groups and mutual friends.

The biggest difference was talking to people who actually live near me and have similar lifestyles/interests.

Usually I would follow someone, interact naturally with stories for a few days and then start conversations slowly instead of forcing random matches.

Of course not every girl was interested or single, but overall the quality of conversations and dates became way better than anything I had on dating apps.
