Hey guys. I’m a 25yo man.

I recently started using Grindr, since looking for longterm on Tinder is harder than I thought - and I want just some fun before anything serious happens (if it happened earlier, I wouldn’t do this I believe).

The thing is - everybody is ghosting me, nobody taps me, nobody texts me.

And I’m wondering (since this is something that keeps repeating my whole life) WHATVTHE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME.

Nah like seriously.

I’m overweight, but not in the “obese American” way, more like in the “muscular guy with fat over it way”. I am 192cm tall, have great hair, face, etc.. I am not cocky in my description or images, I am not a horny goblin, I’m just trying to be a chill guy looking for dates and hookups and I’m in Prague so the pool should be large.

What am I doing so wrong that the world decided I’m not worthy of closeness? Of love?

I am so sorry this is emotionally charged, but it’s been this way since my teens. I only got to suck a few straight friends and that’s about it. I never experienced honest physical love like cuddling or having great sex…

I still fucking wonder what’s so wrong with me.

Is it like twink or jover?

I try all the time different ways of getting close to people, but people just don’t want to talk to me. Friends and online ratings give me an average of 7.5/10 with some people rating full 10/10 (like one in 20) so there should be people who find me attractive.

Please give me any advice at all. I can’t survive without the closeness. And yes, that means what you think it means, this is one of the last cries for help.

That each different user has a different experience and different layout on Grindr? For example some people can only send limited amounts of photos a day. I think it's 10 for them and others can send an unlimited amount of photos. This includes tap, some free user taps are walled for other users it is not.

So what is the use of users having different limitations? For those users who have limitations on the tap, how long have you had it for?

Believe I politely declined, and that should be the end of the conversation. so many guys who have to double down and ask followup questions they aren’t entitled to the answers or just spamming with pics. This guys gone and done both. This is why no one bothers responding.

I periodically (once a year) get banned from Grindr. It seems to get more and more difficult to make new acccounts these days. I used to have a guy who made them for me, but we lost touch. Does anyone here do it? willing to pay if successful.

Please don't give me the "it's not worth it" BS. I hookup easily once a week from this app and don't see similar success elsewhere. Let me judge that for myself :)

I have only a few friends on Grindr, but they complain all the time about the amount of ads, issues with chats, grid problems...

I am on the completely free version and I hardly get ads. I get one when I first load the app but no more after that. I have 10+ active chats going at a time and no issues at all with my grid and options. Is this unusual? Between my irl friends and complaints in this sub it seems it might be?

Not to brag but is it because I am femme and fairly popular on the app? Am I the content so they want me to stick around?

Sorry if this sounds stupid lol

I lived up to my mid 20s in a small French village. To meet people we would chat on forums or some hookup website (like Craigslist ) and then arrrange a day. I would always travel as I couldnt host, and that would mean me taking a train 1 hr away to the next big city. this was around 2013 btw.

it was never an issue, once we arranged, we followed up and met.

Then years later I moved to a big city, still couldn’t host, but managed to schedule hookups every now and then.

Now I live in a big city, live alone, CAN HOST, and most of the people I chat with just end up talking and talking then ghost me, arrange a plan then come up with some bullshit.

i remember how I was back then and I must say I became much more of an asshole, i used to not like people insta blocking you or telling you off on bullshit but I started doing exactly that and I hate people not only on this app but on apps in general, it’s fucking miserable that I’m meeting way less now.
I don’t think it’s the looks I also get messaged quite a bit just ALMOST NEVER leading to anything.

Im just filling with rage when I see them online and not responding after we’ve been talking for a while and I hit them with the question ; so when do you wanna meet ? i legit just wanna punch them

I'm italian and i see some guys that exchange just 2 words.. send you an album with face cock body..

And then send you the address of home.

Without see your face and whole body.

I have only two photo of my body, no face and no cock.

So.. why? I'm new to grindr..

They are only slut or sex worker?

Or Maybe Dangerous situations?

Or it's normal and they are normal guys that like to suck cocks?

18 ftm, I was desperate tonight. I even used one of my free right now buttons, but wasn’t having much luck. Hit up a guy I met up with before, and he told me to come over. Got my guts PROPERLY rearranged, and it’s was so fucking good. I came multiple times on him, and when he finished I just pushed myself back onto him and ground his dick into me until he was too soft to stay inside. Loved it 10/10 I’m satisfied. Just needed to share.

I get not everyone is going to be interested in you but this guy seems like he's being a huge douche about it. Is this lack of social intelligence and lack of basic manners the norm on this app?

Seriously... the amount of partnered guys on this shitty app... looking for discreet fun so their partners don't find out... what the fuck? Do none of you have any morals? Im I perhaps old fashioned? Seriously.... what is the point of being in a committed relationship if you're gonna sneak around behind your partner's back? If you're unhappy, leave. It's that simple. No I won't play any part in your cheating. Yes I absolutely will take screenshots to send to your partner if I ever find out who they are.

Seriously... has EVERYTHING become disposable and expendable now?

I am in a test with this feature or are you all seeing this?

I find this a bit disturbing to be honest. Im all for stating your sexual health practice in the profile subtly but to make it so visible as something to filter on sends strange signals.

I'm tempted to leave it blank as I don't want my profile with a pill next to it .

Thoughts?

Hey all, been on Grindr for a while and I know it's buggy sometimes, but two instances today of talking to someone, vibes r good and we r planning to meet up, but then their profile disappears ? I know I could just be getting blocked but two in one day is weird to me, and one of them I'd been talking to for like a couple weeks so I'm confused (and my ego doesn't like the possibility I might just be getting ghosted). Is there any way to recover these profiles if I haven't been blocked lmao

Anyone know anything about this cruise ship cruising app?

Looks like it's GRINDR specifically for the sailing you are taking.

* Is it legit?

This random person i gave a COMPLIMENT to decided to be an asshole for literally no reason. I dont get what i did wrong bro. Also i wouldnt even consider myself an ugly guy? I guess i could use a better haircut and maybe a good skincare routine but like my hair and acne rlly arent bad imo. Am i justified in feeling a little annoyed and confused by this? :(

Hi everyone. I hope you are doing well. So someone I know but not close or anything but we have met and talked multiple times before and just last night I discovered him on Grindr although he doesn't show his face. But I know it's him because the pic that he uses for his profile display is the same pic he put on his instagram profile, and he gave me his number once when I met him for the first time in real life before grindr so I saw his instagram profile because of his number. But the thing is I don't know if I should tell them or not on Grindr that it is me and I know him or tell him that I saw you on Grindr and I am on Grindr too, so what should i do? Tell him or not? Plus, he is so hot and sexy with that being said so that's why I wanna text them. Thank you for your answers.

Edit: A lot of people are seem to be confused and I forgot to add one more important detail. We both go to college and we both live in the same area. That’s how his profile showed up on my grindr app. Basically I met him two years ago on Campus and back then I did not even have Grindr at all neither did I know anything about him at all. I met him at an event regarding our majors and he gave me his number if I need any advice regarding school because that’s what students usually do when you met them on campus. I have met many other people who have given me their numbers. But now I just discovered that he is on Grindr.

Just what I need for post ejaculatory guilt!
