Dear Randa,

I’ve been on the apps for a couple of years now and have started to notice how much I allow my own little dating-app heuristics to determine my love life. I’ve developed rules to avoid people. I’ll swipe past certain jobs (I assume bartenders have odd schedules and finance workers are, well, soulless). I’ll skip the overly sincere (You’re seeking someone “passionate”?!

Some of these feel like obvious filters to weed out people I’m genuinely incompatible with, but I can’t kick the feeling that I’m swiping left

 

In an online wild west populated by scammers and hackers, dating apps pose challenges beyond just finding a partner. It’s getting harder to tell if your date is who they say they are, and that’s before you consider the data security and privacy implications of using the apps on your smartphone.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — The creator of Birmingham’s newest dating app, SetMeUp, is hoping to bring back in-person dating.

“It’s all about in-person dating,” SetMeUp creator Adelaide Matte said. “The current dating apps do not offer in-person dating and focus on hooking up and never talking to the person again.”

Matte said it’s time to give people another route toward a match.
