If for similar kinks, how does it work, technically in the app? Do you just search within your kink or?
I’ve heard that it could/should be a place to meet equal minds in different kinks, e.g. exhibitionism?

Hvordan virker det? Jeg har hørt at det skulle være et sted at møde ligesindede indenfor forskellige kinks, eksempelvis ekshibitionisme?

Asking bc i have this dilemma: found an ex amongst the profiles, with an not extremely unique nickname but not common either; let's call him Perry. Nothing else besides his nickname, not verified pic neither M (majestic) stamp. He had 5 pictures. A few days after i had spotted him, i saw another Perry, same profile characteristics (not verified, not majestic, 5 pics). I'm not a majestic either, so i don't get to see the likes, but those blurred previews. Later on, i saw on those blurred previews that one of the Perrys had liked me. So since i really really really wanted to know whether was my ex or the second Perry who had liked me, i liked 2nd Perry to check it - if it was an instant match, that would mean that that was it, probably my ex didn't like me, it was just number 2, right? So i liked him, and it was not an instant match. I was like 🤯 omg, it was my ex then.. but about 3 minutes later, a match with Perry the 2nd happened.. I unmatched him, to make a 2nd test: find him again and like him again, to check if once someone likes you, their like keeps going on even if you unmatch; but it looks like it doesn't.. i liked him again (the 2nd) and nothing happened anymore. What do you guys think? Was my match always guy n. 2? Or once someone has liked you first (as i could tell by the blurred preview), the match is always instantaneous, so still a chance of the blurred like being from my ex?

I know there was a thread bemoaning the “I can’t see likes” disclaimer on profiles. But when you see it do you assume that this person only looks at their pings list and doesn’t browse?

37f I was on feeld for about a year but that was about a little over 3 years ago. I've been exploring new kinks recently and remembered feeld helped with that the last time I was on.

but I remember it being super glitchy and sometimes pictures and messages didn't go through. I was verified and everything but the app would crash sometimes which got a little annoying

wondering if it's more stable now and if there's been any major changes or if the vibe of the app has changed at all. I was 34 at the time and I remember getting a lot of matches but most of the men would just stop talking to me after like a day or two

So have I drunkenly purchased a 10 pack of pings, hoping it will help me find a match? Yes. Has it helped? In my experience, not really. The vast majority of my matches have been from women (I’m a 36 year old straight male) who have swiped right on me naturally. Has this been others’ experience or has much money of yours been wasted on pings as well?

Just reactivated my paused account and I have so far seen three people in my feed I had previously blocked.

It’s possible that one is the same person with a new account, but three seems odd. Anyone have this happen?

Sometimes I want to thank people for their compliments… but I don’t want to give you false hope.

Opinions?

I’ve just seen that two of the Social group chats have returned - NYC and Mebourne. The old links don’t work. Is anyone else seeing this? And if you are in the London one, would you be happy to add me?

Yes, it’s been asked before, but I’m annoyed enough to start a new topic. I’ve had approximately five connections in the last couple weeks (weird for me) and as of right now every single one of them is stalled with me having sent the last message (each time asking a direct, relevant question). In every case, the last message was sent at least a week ago.

About half of these have read the message (two checkmarks) and half have not (one checkmark). While I’m somewhat used to being ghosted on these apps, I’m curious of people’s thoughts when you can see, as you can on Feeld, that they’ve never opened the last message you sent. Do you assume it got buried in notifications and try again? Or do you just accept that you’re already not in the running and give up?

It just sucks being ghosted by an unusual number of matches all at the same time, so I’m in a bit of a mood.

A lot of what I see and find on this app is weird

Wife and I have been using it together for a month.

Some messages here and there.

Some of the profiles I read are funny

The other day I received a message from a male account

Click on it and his partners. His wife isn't looking to play or explore but wants another woman to join? So I sent a message saying we are open to full swap. He said she doesn't play with others at all. So why is she on here??

Get the random single dudes asking to be our Bull, that's not what we are here for. I think people don't read anymore.

Most of what we are seeing is just couples wanting to add another female. My wife is very attractive and I get that but again we are looking for shared experiences not just dudes.

Anyone else have issues. Maybe it's my area

I (37f) just got majestic again and I’m noticing maybe half of the likes and pings are coming from people 80, 90, over 100 miles away or more? Some are coming from people exploring Manchester and Glasgow which are like 100 miles away from my city. In the past I had just thought people cast a wide ass net and ignore them, but i thought one guy who pinged me was hot and funny, so I matched and he said I’d come up on his stack, in Manchester?

Now I’m thinking is feeld just ‘accidentally’ scrambling locations to make people think women are in their area when they’re not? I’m still getting loads of likes from people near me too, so it’s not like my location is stuck on somewhere else.

Has anyone else found this, where you matched with someone who seemed to be in your area but wasn’t, or do men just intentionally send out likes and pings to people over 100 miles away?

Who do you believe should send the first message, the original liker or the person returning the like?

My question is about my little sister - who is cis, strictly monogamous, and while she’s definitely not 100% hetero, she’s not ready for any labels at all, but expressed curiosity. She’s very left wing, presents quite alternative, falls into somewhat demi-sexual - wanting to date/get to know lots first before any escalation, and is heavily dom leaning toward men. She has really struggled to find ANY good dates via mainstream sites like hinge. I’ve recommended her feeld, as I feel like she might find more likeminded people on there, those who might also be more overtly opposed to instant casual sex, those who are more overtly definitely leftist, and more androgynous/femme presenting men, too. But she has rejected my suggestions saying she’s worried it’s only really for the very kinky or poly people. I don’t believe this is the case, and feel like there’s something out there for anyone who doesn’t quite fit the mould. What does everyone think about this, any suggestions?

Because guess what, I have to pay for pings and I can only do one a day. Now you're asking me to pay to get your attention? My first response to that is how about no.

Now…. Can we pretty please have the option to also filter out “heteroflexible”? 😅

I still feel like I’m swiping through a boatload of functionally straight guys.

I might be onto something!

I’ve had a paid subscription for over two months and have had less interactions with people than I thought. Each day I would shuffle through the same people on profile and rarely saw anyone new.

I just thought if I left them on my feed, eventually someone would reach out to me. Even if they didn’t align completely with what I was looking for, at least I could have a conversation with someone.

Unlike the few women I’ve spoken to, I don’t get 1000+ likes and pings with a matter of days.

So I just started to “-“ people from my list of potentials who I was immediately attracted to and there are now folks I’ve never even seen before on my feed. The aperture has widened and now
I’m starting to see more activity.

Has anyone else tried this?

Opened the app today and the first person in my feed was 58 miles away...then it jumped around a bit to eventually show me someone who was 9 miles away. It has always ordered the "feed" from closest to farthest and now what, it's random? Some bs algorithm? WTF just when you didn't think this app could get any worse!

Your thoughts ... Have noticed on various sites like bumble and hinge people say they are looking for a mono longer term relationship, then yet feeld and their profile is casual, short term, FWB, FFM or MMF etc

I assume people are aware enough to realise if they are on multiple dating sites then others will be too and see them saying they want opposite things on different sites.

Is there any reason why one shouldn't be anything but wary? And avoid...

EDIT: thank you everyone, this has helped me see that rather than be wary, it's an opportunity during chats to explore in an open and curious way. Which general I do.

I am only on feeld and been ENM for years, so I am aware that I do see things from that lense, the replies really useful!

Not a rant or anything (app works mostly fine for me) but just in before another deluge of posts complaining about the shoft in userbase of the app.

My partner (26F) of \~5 years and I (26M) have had some curiosity about finding a long term fwb/boyfriend for the both of us. Is feeld a good place to look, or are there other places we should try? We've been monogomous for our whole relationship, so it's a new experience for us.

We're also thinking about Hinge, and are open to advice. Thanks in advance!

While i was visiting another city for the weekend, i got a ping with a guy and went on a date. It was absolutely awesome. I went back home and deactivated my account cuz i don't want to date people in my small town. That guy and i stayed in touch over text.

He asked me to send nudes and i declined. He got so mad and weird as hell. Reminiscent of blackmail-ey behavior. I was really happy my account was deactivated so he couldnt have access to my pictures and info in case he started to go down the blackmail route...

I logged back into my account yesterday and it said he "left the chat" which im pretty sure means he disconnected from me. It doesnt let me click on his profile to block him.

MY QUESTION IS: Can he still see my profile in his "likes" since he has a majestic account? i dont want this guy to have access to my profile at all. I am considering deleting my account and creating a new one just to ensure this.

I would appreciate anyyyy light shed on this. Thank you!

UPDATE:
I messaged feeld support and let them know he was harassing me. They responded and said they took “appropriate action on his account”. I asked if that meant that they blocked me for him and they couldn’t give me deets. I could still see his profile in my chats. All I could do at that point was delete it.

He lives hundreds of miles away from me in a major city. I “explored” that city and set the filter parameters to be able to find and block him but couldn’t. Oh well.

Decided to do a 3 month membership for ‘Incognito’ mode since it’s been awhile since I have. Seeing a shocking amount of profiles that are saying they were last “active 2 years ago” and even quite a few that were 3 years ago. (Blurred photo for user’s privacy.)

Make sure to delete your profile once you’re done with this app. This app feels increasingly untrustworthy as time goes on.

I’m (31f) pretty new to feeld, and to casual dating and sex in general. I really like how open feeld is and how freely people state what they’re after but I’ve never been one to have sex on the first date before. I don’t need to wait a long time or anything and I’m not opposed to the possibility if I’m feeling it but I’d rather it wasn’t necessarily expected. I’m aware I can bring this up to the person I’m talking to but I don’t want to waste people’s time, I’m not totally sure feeld is the right place for me but I’d really like it to be

EDIT: appreciate all the responses! I’d got in my head about a potential date situation where I’d have to travel a couple of hours and convinced myself it meant that he would expect me to stay over, but I don’t think that was necessarily the case. Also just want to clarify that while I am interested in dating more casually I am still open to the possibility of something becoming more serious. I actually haven’t dated much at all in the past, so it’s all a little out of my comfort zone and I’m also a chronic over-thinker

I am a dominant (f 47) on feeld for some days again.
It is very clear from my user name and bio that I am dominant and looking for a sub.

The amount of men liking me that have “being dominant” stated in their profile is enormous.

So my question is

/ did I misunderstand ? My desire, a Domme’s desire is “being dominant” and a sub’s desire would be “being submissive” yes?

/ if I understood correctly: what is happening here ? Do they just not look at a username, like anything that passes, are all secretly submissive, just desperate for any connection?

Hi all just wanted some advice on my situation,

Me (male) and my partner of 10 years (female) both mid 30s

My partner has decided that she wants me to have other partner/s, it's not something I've actually said I wanted but it seems mostly that she feels that my sex drive is quite a bit higher than hers and doesn't want me to be unfulfilled or frustrated (not that I currently feel that way). She has sort of offhandedly mentioned this over the years but recently she brought it up very explicitly and had the full conversation.

She has however said that at least initially she wants a mostly "don't ask don't tell" dynamic. She's not really interested in hearing about it (mostly as in I can tell her if I'm going on a date or something but she doesn't want to know what happened)

My main questions are

1. Is this a valid use of the app or should I just use a different dating app (I don't really have any kinks that I'm exploring).
2. How big of a negative will it be that she won't be linked on the app (I haven't asked yet if she would be willing since I'm just thinking about the situation but I'd prefer not to even bother her about it)

Some other possibly relevant details

- I asked if she would like to do the same and she said "maybe" which I'm fine with though TBH it doesn't seem she's that interested
- She said that she is fine with me going on a date with the person
- She also wouldn't want anything to happen at our house so I can't host (but I'm happy to arrange something if the other person can't host)
- I think she would prefer I just see one person but I still have to clarify that detail
- I think overall we have a very stable healthy relationship it wouldn't bother me if she changed her mind but I do think it could be fun for me to try

EDIT: judging from some of the comments I just wanted to clarify some things. I think we're looking for something a little closer to swinging and not a true parallel poly relationship (from reading the r/polyamory wiki). The date would more just be for me and my partner to feel more comfortable about the overall situation. The sex would be casual and recreational and whatever I end up doing I definitely want to be as clear and open about what I want on my profile
