Our society is under steady scrutiny, as we are being constantly studied by algorithms whose only objective is to get us to spend as much time on whatever app it is they work for, as possible. So if you've opened Tinder and realized that slowly over time, your options seem to deteriorate, then just know, that makes total sense. They are experts at getting you to keep swiping, in hopes of greener grass, yet always fail to deliver. We're not saying that the algorithm hasn't made mistakes… after all, sometimes people do get married and live happily ever after.

But most of the time, we're the rule and not the exception. The actual swiping isn't even the worst part, it's the unmatching, ghosting, and blocking that happens after the fact that has got us all riled up. When making first impressions, you've gotta be extra careful; after all, you don't know the person you're meeting for the first time, and neither they you. So one off-hand joke and you're diving off the dating cliff.

These dating app flops below serve as a great reminder that we're not alone in our struggle. Scroll down, and enjoy! For more like this, here is last week's collection of funny dating app fails for some extra serotonin.
