That's why I wrote "if the other person is active on the dating app and isn't responding to you, just unmatch the pair say after"

Agreed. I have been guilty of this as well, though I also do realize that it is still a human being at the other end and giving a closure by unmatching is much better than leaving it hanging.

> It can be tiresome to have to periodically clean out matches every so often

I think more than cleaning out the matches, if you were interested in someone and were having a conversation with them and suddenly they disappear, you don't know if that's just because of being busy. The delay might be just anxiousness for the other person.
