I dont believe that you wouldn't be compatible just because Tinder didnt match you. As a 42 year old woman who has never dated in this way, it's very odd to me that this is how a lot of people meet. A pic and a profile doesnt convey who you are, your spirit, your vibe, whatever you want to call it. Meeting someone in person, feeling that attraction to someone who is physically right in front of you is something that cant happen with app dating. I mostly see dating apps as a good tool for hooking up, which is totally cool if that's what you're after. But dont think that just because someone doesnt swipe right on you means you'd never have a chance with them. I know some attractive guys who are fun to hang with, and then I look at their online profiles and they just dont convey the true essence of the person I know. Also, back when I was single, I dated a few guys that "on paper" were not my type. But because I met them in person, got to know a little about them and their vibe, there was something about their personalities that made them attractive to me, something I wouldn't have been able to see if our main means of communication were through an app or a phone.

Do not gauge anything about yourself or other people based on some pic and bio that takes 5 min to look over.
