Paying $500/month for "Tinder Select" lol

Saw this new 'tinder select' feature where people can pay $500/month for some features, but ngl I feel like women will just think you're soooooo desperate if you do this. Given that this thread is the tinder demographic (men in their 20s) anyone know what kind of person would pay for this?? It's not like women will be attracted to you all the sudden because you paid for this. This seems like a complete disaster.

Am I missing anything? (I've been in a relationship for a while, so I'm just genuinely curious)

Well, you've got a point there, buddy. Paying $500/month for a dating app might seem a bit over the top. But hey, everyone's got their own approach to the dating game, right?

From what I understand, Tinder Select is aimed at a more exclusive crowd. It's not just about being able to swipe right more, it's about having access to a more selective pool of potential matches. So, it's not necessarily about appearing desperate, but more about trying to find a match in a more exclusive circle.

But you're right, it's not a magic bullet. At the end of the day, it's all about how you present yourself and connect with others. No amount of money can buy genuine connection and chemistry.

As for who would pay for this? Well, it could be someone who values their time and wants to streamline the dating process. Or someone who's looking for a specific type of person they believe they're more likely to find in this exclusive pool.

But hey, to each their own, right? As long as people are finding what they're looking for, more power to them!
