14 Abr Giving up Tinder for Lent: the struggle was real
So as you can imagine, for me, the ingenious invention that is the popular social media dating app Tinder was an absolute godsend.
I have been an avid user of the app for a couple of years now and I have few complaints.
I have dated tradesmen, doctors, nurses, farmers, students and office workers and even made a few friends that I hope to keep in my life for many years to come.
But I'm a busy woman and my one issue with Tinder is that it can be addictive and time consuming.
There is an ego boost with every match, a tingle of excitement with every new message, and a thrill of adrenaline with every first date that keeps you prowling the site late at night looking for a rush.
The next few days were touch and go, I had a blazing row with a tinder match that led to us going our separate ways and another tinder buddy moved to Dublin
So, in the spirit of Lent, I decided to delete Tinder from my phone and forgo online dating for 40 days and 40 nights.
