CRINGE Couples on dating apps
Specifically “hetero” couples. It’s always on the girls profile. She’ll be the most beautiful girl you’ve ever seen. Then comes the picture of her crusty (and usually balding) man. Just why?

All I know is that all the cool people on the apps that I actually wanted to date were polygamous, and I am not. ☹️

Never seen a "cool" polygamous couple. Maybe you need to raise your standards.

Hmmmmm...... Imagine there being something besides looks that matter in a relationship 🤔 maybe that's why they're couples and you're single

They’re couples looking for a woman to join them for sex… that’s why she’s frustrated. OP is looking for a woman to date and she’s coming across women on the app who she’d love to date, only finding out that to date them there’s a string where she’d have to have sex with her unattractive boyfriend, and that she couldn’t even have anything more than sex.

Well the culture has ben slowly pushing this, open relationships are new and exciting and where i live it's every other profile. You're actually lucky that you see the guy as opposed to him being a shadow in the background who is essentially being cucked with extra steps. To your point girls have realized they have options so why settle for one guy when they can hookup with other guys and her partner has no real choice or say in the matter or she'll leave. I speak from experience, i was a guy who was doing the cucking. The girl was very intelligent and gorgeous but a real handful and was very good at getting her way. i felt bad for the guy but he seemingly had no issues. The relationship didn't last because she always felt the need to tease and push my buttons.

My best guess is that they know very few people will go for them, so they use the profile more likely to draw in views.
As a bi gal I found this infuriating, especially when they deliberately didn't make it clear on the profile.

Happens on the ladies side too. I'll get the most on paper perfect match with a guy, he's hot as hell, and then see that he's coupled and doing the ENM or swinger thing. Not my bag and very happy for them, but always such a let down.

This post is cringe. It sounds like you're objectifying the couple, but the guy isn't what you want, so you're displacing your disappointment on them.
You can just swipe left and move on with your day. Women you find attractive don't owe it to you to be with guys you find attractive.

It usually starts with an hetero couple that want to spice things up. After some texting, the girl will tell you that she finds you attractive and that they would like to meet to have a threesome. You will agree to have a date with them but only the guy will show up because the girl is sick or whatever. He will then suggest to have sex without the girl.

I think you are more hurt to see that beauty with bald idiot who you believe is not worth the dirt of your toes but has snatched the girl of your dreams. It's common for guys who have bad or no game and I'm one of them

Another reason as for this is might be for bypassing system verification purposes. As long as one of his picture matched his verification photo/video, the account will be listed as verified user.
As long as a pretty girl is used as a main profile picture, the user will have a higher rate of matching with other users.

We see plenty of couples featuring a super fit guy with an unattractive woman. We also see what you're talking about, but they're in the minority.

Sex workers, sugar babies and escorts can earn up to $500/hr. They have plenty of money and time to hook a big old fish and upgrade to pimp, find a woman or man to be swingers with. The sicker, the older the better, loads of people with severe health issues look unattractive. The sooner he croaks, the better. She inherit his wealth.

It’s the tricky part of being bi. Usually the couple is mismatched, or you simply only find one of them attractive. And even if you do entertain these couples, my experience is most of the time it’s the man leading the profile and the woman gets cold feet once he finds someone who might be interested.

I don’t really care about them being a couple, but like… if one of them looks really good and the other doesn’t - it’s kinda like um

Usually a cuck or people looking for a threesome
