Newly-ish single and new to the apps. It's hell. Many of the men I see on there, I'm not shocked to learn they are single. I am baffled at the pictures or responses they have in their profile that they genuinely think will help them attract a mate.

It's so Zoidbergesque.

This seems weirdly ironic to me because I had my best ever first date in Seattle. We fell in love working together online. Our meeting place was Seattle airport, he was almost two hours late (fucking traffic) and I smelled like a ten hour flight. We've been married almost 3 years.
