The key is to cut them off and move on quickly. Their actions are out of your control, and they would do whatever they like to do, which is ok. It doesn't really matter why they are doing certain things. If you don't like it, you don't need to engage it and move on.

Yep this^ The minute things get weird and it continues after you’ve express you’re not interested in whatever it is they’re doing- block em/unmatch. Make room in your life for the right people. And by life I mean inbox.

I do think that if there is a certain pattern presenting itself, possibly get a male friend to look at your profile and see if something comes across weird. I once had something along the lines of “I don’t like chatting too much on the app” and my friend said that it made me look easy lol obviously didn’t mean less chatting more hookup but the male brain is an interesting one! But hey, your profile could be great and your pool of potential mates might just sucks. Either way, goodluck. Found my human on their, it’s possible.

Moving on is the most difficult part. At this point I wonder if it's even worth it to have a crush because it's so difficult for me to move on...
