I Tried Online Dating

A couple of days ago, I created an account on Tinder. I've never done the online dating stuff. I'm tired of being lonely. I know my wife wouldn't want me to sit around and be like this. I just want someone to call up and talk to, someone to watch a movie with, to go out to eat with. I don't know if anything will evolve beyond that, and that's fine. That's not what I'm looking for right now.

Has anyone here used Tinder? If so, how did it go?

*edit* My wife passed away a couple years ago. I'm not currently married and looking to date.

I’m confused, your wife doesn’t want to sit up and talk, watch movies etc?

@Mindful she can't go to a movie with you

@romell why is it that a wife can’t go to a movie with you? (Not me)

@Mindful My wife died a couple years ago. I should've stated that.

@ChickenNugget okay. So sorry. It makes sense. When I was single I thought of starting a movie date app. But so many people lie online. I’m not a software app designer. But I think it would serve a good purpose . Facebook promotes meet ups. Meet ups is safer as it’s a group of people who want the same.

@Mindful I didn't know Facebook had stuff like that. I only have family members on there, and I rarely use it.

Do a yahoo search on “local meetups” there are sooo many.... it might be Yahoo! Sorry@ChickenNugget
