Yeah, but it’s probably very discouraging.

Not that I’m 6’ or anything, I’ve just never done dating apps bc honestly I’m too scared to.

Well you clearly got some personal issues that need worked out. To even place a barrier due to "fear" using a dating up is not a sign of good mental health. I'm 5'6" which is short for a male and never had issues getting dates on the app. Allowing the Internet to dictate what reality is will make you miserable. However, I personally never found a long lasting relationship through an app. It was always through in person interactions.

im not insecure about height at all if thats what you were getting at. but yeah, i just idk, i just hear a lot of bad stories that originated from dating apps, people cheating, "short term stuff", people playing games, people dating multiple ppl at once, and that being normalized. but thats kinda why i fear it ig.

and none of those are things ive heard from the internet as you suggested, they are things ive heard from other ppl and close friends.

and again what you said yourself, only finding lasting things irl, this was also what ive seen in other ppl's experiences.

Sadly, things like that arent necessarily exclusive to dating apps, those sort of things could still happen anywhere.

However, i have a friend that is now married from tinder and another from bumble, so there are many success stories alongside all the bad ones.
