I tried Facebook Dating so you don’t ever have puro put yourself through it

Mai. Of course Volte didn’t have high hopes for Facebook Dating. But what Rso did have was a great deal of morbid curiosity, and an insatiable desire for attention.

Volte find it hard onesto not give verso new dating app vibe a try. You really do just never know how they’re going puro be. I’ve had them all, sicuro varying success. Grindr is cursed but I enjoy the attention and, well, the nudes. Tinder is a glitchy mess but the majority of people looking for love are on it, so the talent pool is wide and there’s always someone sicuro match with. Volte met my ex on Hinge, and think it’s actually got the perfected norma for a good dating app.

But what about Facebook Dating? Is it any good? It’s been out durante Europe since , so why’ve voglio app incontri adulti Volte never heard anything from it?

Well, I needed puro find out for my own peace of mind. I’ve been playing about on it Facebook Dating for just over a week now, and this is my final verdict on if it’s worth bothering.

Setting up my profile

Puro do it, you head sicuro the menu section on the Facebook app, and you should see per tab for Dating just under Memories on the right hand side. Once you click on that, you’ll be walked through the steps on how esatto get going. It’s the usual stuff that you’d find on Tinder or Hinge; education, smoker/non smoker, bios. It lets you do per mix of pictures and colloque starters, like Hinge. The gang’s all here.

The feature stresses from the via that it won’t suggest current Facebook friends mediante Dating and they won’t share any activity or swiping you get up esatto on it with your friends list.

And there’s per niente app, you’ve just got preciso do it all through the normal one for Facebook. But more of that sopra per bit.

Is there any good stuff about Facebook Dating?

The major one is that unlike Tinder, you can see who’s liked you. When you go on preciso Facebook Dating, there are three tabs: Profile, Liked You and Matches. On Liked You, you’ll get per number of your likes and then you can swipe exclusively through them con a Tinder-esque style.

It’s definitely a great thing seeing all the people that want sicuro scontro with you just readily available, considering on Tinder preciso get that you’re looking verso paying ?15 verso month for the privilege.

I’m not sure if this next one is verso vantaggio or per in. Volte guess it would depend on where you fall on the matter. But it’s one of Facebook Dating’s most unique features, so I’ve gotta mention it.

FB Dating has per feature called Secret Crush. With this feature, it lets you add up onesto nine of your Facebook friends or Instagram followers as secret crushes. They’ll get per notification saying “someone’s added you as a secret crush sopra Dating”. If they also end up adding you as per secret crush on their Facebook Dating, you’ll gara.

So if you can face up preciso your crush knowing you use Facebook Dating, this is the feature for you!

The bad

First of all, the lack of app means giammai notifications. At all. I matched with a few lads, but the dialogue never went anywhere because it would take either of us days puro reply when we remembered esatto check the Dating tab. It’s just not convenient having Dating shunted in this little tab on the main app, and Rso think it’d be per big improvement if it had its own app like Facebook Messenger does.

But the biggest bad with Facebook Dating actually has very little onesto do with the service itself. It’s puro do with the people who use it.

Facebook isn’t the young person hotspot it once was when we were teenagers. I can’t remember the last time Rso put per Facebook status up for any other purpose than preciso broadly inform family members and older acquaintances I know that perhaps don’t use Instagram or Twitter of anything important mediante my life. New jobs, moving cities. That kind of thing. Facebook isn’t really the scrolling haven of aimable mass media it was durante its hey day. Not for people our age, anyway.

There’s verso reason none of your mates talk about that fit lad they’re obsessed with that they’ve spent all night talking preciso on Facebook Dating. It just doesn’t happen.

I’ve spent a good while over the last week swiping on Facebook Dating, and it’s boring. The people who use it blend into one. Everyone looks like they’ve never left the town they were born per. Every bio looks like it was written by a bot. It’s the kind of thing you sit and scroll on and end up sending your mental health into an existential crisis.

On several occasions, I’d go on Dating and see Rso had around 30 likes. I’d clear through them, excited puro swipe and find my next fella, puro be greeted with not a scapolo person I’m interested in. Day after day. It’s tedious, and makes you sit there thinking why the hell have Volte even bothered to serie this up?

Stick to Tinder. Stick esatto Hinge. They’ve already got everything that’s being offered here. Make per niente mistake, all dating apps are quite cursed. But at least on the tried and tested classics you might find someone actually worth going for verso cocktail with.
