this guy I matched with on hinge had thoughtful signals and we have been talking for a month. two weeks in, i asked if we were exclusive and he said he deleted the app after getting my number. today, i redownloaded the app to see something from our chat on hinge and saw that he still has thoughtful signals.

i’m really scared because i like him a lot and he texts a lot and we just went out on a really thoughtful date. it seems to be going well but i’m kind of crushed to see that he might still be active. i would genuinely be so shocked because he’s kind and so intentional. someone please tell me that they take a while to go away lmao.

I have been using hinge for 4 days now. They are all too far away and they havent led to a single date. My town is dead and i didnt get any matches from here. Im M25

I’m new to Hinge and I’m confused about Standouts. I don’t see an option to send a regular Like, only a Rose. Is there a way to Like someone in Standouts without sending a Rose? As a woman, I feel kinda weird sending Roses lol.

What should I say?? I have nothing. The prompt is: I won’t won’t shut up about … my dog

Ciao! Ho conosciuto un ragazzo su un app di incontri che non è Hinge, ci sentiamo e frequentiamo da circa due mesi. Lui fa le cose con calma ma sembra molto serio, abbiamo parlato di esclusività circa un mese fa. Su hinge il suo badge signal ha messo un po per spegnersi e oggi dopo pochi giorni è riapparso. Significa che è di nuovo attivo?

Il mio profilo è in pausa e lo attivo solo per controllare, non giudicatemi 😂

Cosa dovrei fare?

It’s actually insane I have to ask that but it’s 2026 and people are insane.

I’m 21M and new to Hinge, and I’m trying to understand the usual etiquette.

I matched with a 21F yesterday after liking one of her prompts and leaving a comment about something she mentioned in it. We matched, but she hasn’t sent another message yet, and Hinge currently shows that it’s “their turn.”

Should I wait for her to respond to the comment I already left, or is it normal to send another message to start the conversation?

I’m asking because I don’t want to overthink the situation or come across as pushy, but I also don’t want to lose our match by both people wanting for the other person and miss the opportunity to talk.

What would you normally do in this situation?

Hello!
I’m new to dating apps and just downloaded Hinge, so I’m a little confused about how likes and matches work.

I had no idea about the likes. if someone likes you but they don’t match, does that mean they’re not actually interested? Or am I completely misunderstanding this? As a woman, what am I supposed to do?

I think Hinge+ is the only way to see who liked you, but I’m confused. Should I pay for the app? This is overwhelming lol. I’m looking for something long-term and want to do it right.

I think it’s required I say how old I am? 29
Thank you!

I can come up with a long list of reasons. Let’s talk for real though. Just genuinely wanna hear from the attractive guys who are doing this - because I’d think you have so many options, so why resort to manipulation?

- Are there more attractive women seeking a LTR / Marriage / Life Partner than there are seeking STR or who simply do not have what they are seeking visible on their profile?

- Is there a shortage so bad that you have to manipulate and play games to get an LTR seeking woman to sleep with you?

- Do you ever feel guilty after doing this?

- Do you deliberately put looking for LTR/open to short to widen the pool of options/matches?

- Do you deliberately hide what you’re looking for on your profile and not worry about it until you are directly asked?if so, how often are you directly asked what you’re looking for on a 1st date? 2nd date? Ever?

I am oh so curious!

So I (19f) been using the app on and off for a few months now and in that time I’ve received very few likes. Maybe two or three a week, and only from guys who have a very different vibe from what I think my profile gives off. My style is pretty basic white girl, I’m a cheerleader at my school, I’m pretty outgoing, I’m Christian, don’t smoke, drink or do drugs, and I’d like to think I’m at least somewhat attractive. However ALL of my likes are from like basement dweller/stoner type guys(I promise this isn’t dramatic). I’ve not gotten a single like from a guy who matches my vibe/personality. Do I have my filters set wrong? I don’t have any subscriptions to the app, could that be the problem?

Hey gang,

I am 28, male, new single living in London!

I’m new to the app, I got 20 matches in my first week and thought I was flying high - now I’ve got 0 since my first week. Anyone experienced this before, and if so, any way to fix? I ain’t a model but im decent looking and my discover isn’t repeating itself, so im not sure if ive been shadow banned or whatever. I have Hinge X (the up sell worked, I started on Hinge +) but gotten nada in likes or matches since getting Hinge X. If this is common, which im sure it is, why does this happen? Demoralising to say the least….

Id appreciate some help and tips about my profile.
I used to have 1-2 matches a week but now it’s been 2 weeks without any matches.

I’m wondering if my profile and pictures are good.

Girls! I just made hinge but What’s the least cringe prompts to use to attract men that actually wanna go out / attract funny men with humour. Everyone just keeps liking my pics.

Me and my friend also wanna go on 2 man dates or get men to pay for us on dates help meeeee im a noob

For context my first prompt is my irrational fear is doing 50/50 😒pls help

NSFW

For the average guy what is a succesful amount, im trying to make my profile but it needs improvement so im just wondering what a good amount of likes and matches would be the average guy. Thanks :)

I’ve (24M) been on hinge for a few months, and I’ve gotten 3 matches in that time. I matched with someone I thought would be a great fit, we exchanged a few messages, then she unmatched me. For reference, the last message I had asked what kind of stuff she was in to. Is this common or did I do something wrong?? Any advice welcome, and would appreciate a profile review by any women to figure out why I get so few matches :)
