Try being an early 30s Male in Southland. Tinder only has a handful of people in my area. I hope not to come off as a dickhead here but... ~70% of the females I see have one or many kids, are morbidly obese, or both. Then theres the other side of the coin: people who are quite clearly in love with their own looks and have a li led Instagram just full of ego stroking selfies. None of these things are appealing to me. And those who I do match with cant even be bothered holding a conversation, let alone meet.

I'm single, fit, have money and am looking for a house, I have my dream job, and I have no debts. I'm mentally stable, logical, reasonable, loving, and have all the time in the world to share with someone. But lately, I simply gave up the search. It is absolutely demoralizing. Almost gone are the days where you can just meet someone at a pub or an event etc. It's now mostly online and it has ironically made things much harder. Good luck out there.
