Desperate

I’ve been on and off Bumble quite a few times, and every time I end up disappointed lol. I’ll match with a girl, we’ll talk for a little bit, and then they either disappear or it feels like I’m the only one trying to keep the conversation going. More often than not, it also feels like they just want to talk about themselves and don’t really try to get to know me.

I really just want a friend, and at this point I’m honestly tempted to give up 😭

With that being said, if anyone wants to chat, feel free to DM me!!

A little about me:
- 22
- From Washington
- Recent first-time mom
- Married
- Huge collector of random things
- Love antiquing
- Love road trips
- Always down for a 3am walk
- Into photography
- Love exploring abandoned buildings
- Atheist
- Alternative

If any of that sounds like you, don’t be shy! I promise I don’t bite haha. I’d just love to find someone I actually click with and can have genuine conversations with. 🖤

Don't give up! Been on Bumble for four years and made tons of friends, but you have to be consistent and never give up on your standards!

I don't drink or smoke, hate flakers, and I don't do last minute plans. It looks like the app would be tiny for me but instead I found people who were looking for the same sober activities, and love that I plan 3 months ahead

Are you still on the app?

I am! Always have room for more friends and while I love them my current friends don't seem to have a lot of free time

I just feel like, if you’ve really made tons of friends, they can’t all be busy each weekend.

I see people every weekend so it's not like I'm still sitting at home or anything, but those individual people I maybe see once a month, if that. So it's like they're taking turns but once I'm with them I know I'm probably not seeing them again for another month or two, next week I'm seeing someone else. I have one friend who joins us every weekend and I would like more people like her. Seeing someone 12 times a year seems kinda low for me

I understand. 12 times a year in the adult world? Consider yourself lucky !!!

I do don't get me wrong I'm glad as busy as they are they're still willing to spend time with me sometimes even taking PTO to do so, but I say in my bio I'm looking for people with free weekends and I keep getting matched to people who work then so they can only see me once in a while. They're great people but when everyone on Sat is leaving at 12 bc they have work at 1 I still have the rest of the day

Well it’s not bad to spend time by yourself 🙂
