      There might be a link between the bans from dating apps and the “not been in a long-term relationship”…

      I used to go to school with a lady that was perma banned from Tinder last year. My guess is she replied to creepy/perverted messages with enough hostility that they yeeted her straight off the platform.

      In all honesty I’ve gotten banned from a couple. Turns out they don’t usually take account security super seriously. Stop using it for a bit, and suddenly it’s sending out obvious scam bait messages lol

      You can also get banned from dating apps for not using them the way the app wants you to. For example not messaging people back or not swiping right enough on tinder.

      I’ve literally been asking that question. A lot of people never get to know why they’re banned.

      Match Group owns the biggest ones, and sometimes people seem to get banned from all of them at once.

      But Google Play Store also disallows installing dating apps for some people. Very unclear why, because there’s no official word on them doing it.

      Maybe it’s for legitimate reasons, but given these companies dominance, I find it disconcerning.

      Seriously. You need to really try to get banned from a dating app, let alone apps plural.

    I’m sure there are countless social or personal reasons for it, but kids having kids without being taught responsibility or how life works means you get a lot of unfortunate children growing up who were never taught about making plans and goals in life, nor are they provided resources to be successful past childhood when you’re just expected to exist and nobody gives a flying fuck about you.

      I uploaded a single photo that showed my clothed body and my smile, but not my nose/eyes. DONE BLOCKED ZZZ

      I told a lady I was not interested in a non attacking way (mentioning I was not over my ex yet and needed some more time) DONE BLOCKED ZZZ

    Methinks the last item on the list might be somehow affecting the others…but certainly life is just hell for this guy and there’s nothing that can be done but type about it

    It’s actually quite an impressive feat to fuck your life up that badly. This person has absolutely nothing going for them whatsoever.

      If they don’t have a license that’s a problem that they made, if they don’t have a job that’s probably because they drink too much and are unreliable (that may also be why they don’t have a license) and if they are an alcoholic that’s probably their core problem.

      All of anons issues are their own, it’s not society’s fault they’re in this situation. Although I am sure they would not agree.

        Not having a license isn’t actually an issue; you can save a lot of money by not driving a car.

        This guy is probably just depressed and the lack of sympathy and support from others is only exacerbating and perpetuating the problem. People like him need love and support from external sources to be able to heal their inner wounds and fix their problems.

        Life stuff like what he’s listing is never the actual source of the problem.

    Edit: apparently I can’t read and count
