What's Bumble?

Also yes, totally nuts. I mean, carrying a gun is nuts on its own, but telling your date about it means it's part of your persona.

A couple weeks ago some people I was with were talking about a type of beer I'd never heard of. It was something like beer that had milk in it? And maybe fruit? That made me feel old. I had no idea what they were talking about.

Bumble is a dating app where you swipe each other like Tinder, but the girl has to send the first message. Also, matches expire after 24 hours, so there is a time limit as well.

I am finding much more attractive/plentiful potential matches on Bumble than I did on Match. It would seem Match's barriers to entry (having a website that's straight from the 90s and a paywall) also kept out the cute younger guys (not surprising once I think about it). I did 1 Match date, but as of tonight will already be at 2 Bumble dates, having used the app for maybe 1/3 of the time I used Match (I paid for 6 months).

Bumble also has prettier women than just about anything else

Tinder for relationships.

In theory.
