My coworker met her fiance online, which got me thinking. Even the ads on those other apps had started to sound like personal insults. The good ones, whoever they were, clearly weren't scrolling the same feeds as me. After that wedding speech I gave in and agreed to meet European women and the vibe is nothing like the apps I'd burned out on. For once, my Sunday stories aren't exclusively about my dog. It's nice being the success story for a change instead of the cautionary tale.
