in my experience cold approach is better than tinder. i stopped using tinder because it's just so unfufilling. the amount of swiping that needs to be done to get a match or two is excessive. i'm not averse to doing work and swiping, it's just that the entertainment from swiping a bunch of chicks is very low, it felt like a chore doing all that swiping only to get little to no matches, so i ended up deleting the app. don't get me wrong, tinder works, i've fucked girls from it in the past. the issue is that you only have your pictures and bio to rely on when it comes to getting girls. you don't have much room to test your limits or your ability when it comes to actually communicating with chicks. if i had to choose i'd pick cold approach over tinder any day of the week. now if i was in the small percentage of men who looked good enough or had good enough pictures to be fucking from tinder consistently then i would choose tinder. the reality though is that a majority of the guys on tinder will struggle when it comes to fucking girls consistently, and as i said before there's not much room for improvement. it's based on your: pictures and bio
