Am I the only person who has had no luck on Grindr?

Okay guys, I did it, sort of. I met a guy and we attempted to have sex but he was completely unable to get aroused, he told me he had masturbated once that day and he could only cum once a day. But he got inside me and I got inside him. He said my dick was enormous, so big that it was actually painful, I'm not kidding. I'm not a virgin anymore.
I am glad to hear it :) .

It is common that the first time it is not as we expected or even awkward due to lack of experience.
But don't worry, I am sure you are cute decent guy, so you would have a lot of fun, and you would meet great people. Be safe.

The good thing is that now that I've lost my virginity I can focus on building actual friendships.
 
I've tried Grindr on and off since college. I think that I'm a reasonably attractive guy but I've gotten no interest from anyone who isn't ugly. It's making me incredibly depressed lately. Has anyone else had this problem?
No, you're not the only one. I hate dating apps and I hate that they have become the primary way of "meeting" people in our community. All they do is heighten my anxiety which is why I stay away.

Grindr and social media in general has made it too easy to see other people as NOT people. Just a random usernamed entity. When they are done with you, they throw you away like a used condom. When things are "done" is purely up to them with no regard to the random digital messager they were interacting with. Besides, there's a whole world of more data to play with...

Grindr definitely reduces everything to a transaction and it promotes a kind of irritating flakiness. It's definitely getting worse, a lot of people on Grindr already seem to be releasing their 3 day load when they look at your pictures so if you do meet them it's a disappointment. That said, I've had some amazing sex from Grindr hookups (and I'm no adonis), you've just got to get lucky I guess.
 
I've had about as much success on Grindr as I've wanted. Its a weird place and kinda a weird medium to hook up on for a few reasons.
One thing I will note is - you said people don't respond to your taps .. which seems pretty normal. I very rarely respond to taps unless the profile has decent pics and I know who's tapping me.

I don't really respond to any one who doesn't send at least a decent face/body pic so I know who I am talking to .. I'm not looking for love - I'm after the best looking/built boy who aint a total dick that will agree to hook up with me..

You also mentioned that no one you're interested in will message you back - which I guess means you don't message back people who you are not interested in .. which is how the game is played right?

Grindr is for sure full of flakes and fakes .. the flakes I get .. I can see how everything seems hot and horny and good to go when you're chatting online but - nerves kick in when it comes to face to face.. I almost always expect a train wreck at the other end of the line regardless of what pics they've sent just cos I've been burnt before - happily, most of the times I've hooked up on Grindr .. they're turned out fine - or better than I was expecting .. Having said that - I've talked to hundreds of people and only hooked up a handful of times.

So - my experience is, you're success on Grindr/scruff ..whatever depends on a few things .. how flexible your tastes are, how much you provide up front (I have a strict no face pic no hook up rule - which seems fair but amazing how many guys just wont send face) and who you're after ..if you are constantly hitting up men who are out of your league - then like any hook up situation, you will probably be disappointed.

The flakiness is a big fear of mine which is also another reason why I avoid these apps. Flaking unfortunately is becoming a norm with folks these days.
 
People who find themselves attractive sign up for dating Apps and then realize that they aren't as attractive as they thought they were.
Then they go through a period of feeling depressed because they can't find a "hot" guy that they deserve.
Sometimes those "ugly" men turn out to be an unexpected "beautiful" person in someone's life.
Ugly or handsome they both have a dick and that is mainly why people use those kind of Apps for in the first place. Find a dick, have some fun and move on.
If you are looking for Mr. RIGHT try a different method in finding him. Otherwise, just settle for Mr. Horny RIGHT now and have fun. Getting off is much better with someone than alone anyway. . . Ugly or not.
Just saying.....
 
when i'm on grindr all i'm asking for is a simple plain face photo just so i know who i am chatting with

most of the times all i get are ugly dick pics and worse asshole pics or guys standing doggy style, photos screaming ''come fuck the shit out of me''
and i don't even know their name or age yet!

the other scenario when i'm asking for a simple face photo is this one

JUST FUCKIN SHOW YOURSELFS GUYS! I AINT GONNA TELL YOUR PARENTS YOU'RE GAY!

so no i wouldn't say i was lucky in those apps. on grindr very very few times, kinda luckier on tinder
 
I’m not white. And I can say my luck was deffo worse than yours.

You’ll be amazed how many people actually said fxxx offf when I messaged them. There is no ideal place. The world itself is unfair too.

However, I know what I want. And luckily I also met someone who knows how to care other people and who’s soo sooo cute and so good looking. But he also abandoned me after we finished. It’s just like a game. If you wanna play it, you will play it and curse it at the same time.
 
Grindr is mostly a waste of time.

Of course I've met guys from there, but not for a few years. There's something about it that just invites flakes and people who don't actually want to meet up.

Try Sniffies. Or Squirt.
