Dating apps have acquired a large number of haters in the past few years, and with good reason. The algorithms have become insufferable, and I swear it has something against me — personally. Tech part aside, dating apps have gained so much popularity nowadays that it's damn near impossible to speak to a human being in person. It's so hard to approach dude(ttes) in real life.

Heck, I even have Tinder Gold, and it doesn't seem to help much. Promises obviously mean nothing to this app. And super swipes have zero effect. So to conclude, dating apps are wastelands filled with terrestrial piranhas… sure then and again, you get a match, start talking, maybe even meet at a pub (if you aren't stood up) — only to find out that the person doesn't look anything like their pictures. Gosh, the times I've been catfished… Thanks, Instagram filters.

The illusion that Tinder creates is an endless supply of hot, emotionally available people. But really, there is just an infinite amount of idiots. Scroll down and check out some of the best dating app fails I scavenged this week. Also, feel free to click here to dish on a bunch of people who believe that the world revolves around them.
