Uh, what’s your secret to getting matches on Tinder? I can’t imagine trying to meet women in order to feel validated. I did online dating before apps, when people had to have written profiles and send messages. I thought I was writing thoughtful messages to women whose profiles made them seem like they might want to hear from me, but I got ignored so much that it was really hard on my self-esteem.

Am I ugly? My grandma says I’m not ugly…

Edit: I just assumed that you are a heterosexual man like me, but maybe you’re a woman matching men? That would be very validating, according to what I’ve heard.
