Tinder profile age indicator

You've been on the market how long?

It’s not exactly news that the dating market can be brutal. You face constant rejection, and it can feel demoralizing if you don’t have a lot of interest in your profile after being “on the market” for a while. You’re also now dealing with people who are willing to pay for Tinder Select, their $500/mo offering.

I’d like to see how people respond to a Tinder profile that shows how many days someone has been on the app as well as how many dates they’ve been on since then. It’s likely a bad idea, but it might help people realize the disproportionate attention that certain profiles receive.

If you see a profile that’s been on the app for years and has only been on a couple of dates it might be a signal that something is off. However, the idea of publicly showing how much “competition” there is for a profile is an interesting concept to me.

Either way, I’m very grateful to be off the market.
