Online dating isn’t a game…no wait, of course it is! Part 2: Betches be makin’ it rain.

Well folks, not sorry to say that dating is still a game..a game of odds, luck and the tiniest bit of emotional stability. Maybe a d*ck pic or two as well as whatever relevant people share these days. 

Slide into DMs. Betches. Ships. Anyone use real words anymore?

^ Now that I got my geriatric bitching out of the way, here are some links I found that I want to make fun of.

“One of the best things about Ship is that it’s not just for single people. If you’re in a relationship, you can still download and find matches for your single friends.”

I can see that leading to a lot of cheating accusations and line crossings for those that are technically in a “‘ship”… can’t you? The gamification of finding a human being to “connect” with is laughable.

What about the singles who are hopeless though? That’s an always-growing market. And everyone wants a share of the profits!

^ What I find extra interesting about this data is that it was delivered pre-pandemic. I wonder if that red line went back up again when people were told that they had to distance themselves from everything.

Whoever would put “Facebook” and “Love” in the same sentence should automatically know that they don’t mesh. If you are even toying with the idea of this, stop it this instant.  You want to know who is behind that friend request?  No one good, I promise.
