Imho this is not true at all. The underlying assumption in your argument is that Tinder provides an accurate assessment of your issues, which is not true. Tinder dating success reflects a heavily skewed dating market that focuses on shallow metrics, such as how photogenic you are.

There was a study done by one of the large dating sites that showed 20% of male profiles get 80% of the matches.

Now, this skewed proportion does not obviously reflect real life. On dating apps a carefully curated, often fake persona can do well.

Personally I find dating apps in general to not be good places to find a partner at all. Ive had much more luck meeting women in the workplace or school etc.

And not getting matches on tinder doesn't necessarily mean you aren't photogenic. When I used it I didn't get many matches either. Later I went on a trip and swiped through Tinder out of boredom, I suddenly got a lot of matches. Not very helpful because I went back home the next day. I think it's important to remember that Tinder varies the "exposure" you get by a lot, for seemingly arbitrary reasons.

@OP Easier said than done, but try not to make too much out of this. I think the recommendation for doing some activities with others is a good idea.

I'd argue that it's exactly the same in real life.

Let's not forget that Tinder isn't about meeting a partner.
