I’ve been on Hinge for maybe two years. I wasn’t in love with the app but compared to Match, POF, Bumble, I liked it the best. I’ve communicated with a fair number of women on the app (had to message a lot though just to get a few hits), but only met 2-3. One girl I did see for about 2 months around a year ago then it fizzled.
This past week, I was chatting with two women, mainly for kicks. I was lukewarm on both. One was a doctor (neurologist), maybe a HB6-7. Had two kids and lived 30 miles away. We talked about motivational speakers and I was somewhat interested in her work, but never asked her out. I let things sit for the past 3-4 days and didn’t reply to her latest message. The other one was younger, maybe a HB7, closer, no kids. I was more interested in her. I asked her out for drinks for Friday and she said she’s not comfortable going to a restaurant yet due to COVID but she’d be up for paddle boarding, as we were talking about going sometime. I let this one sit for the past 3-4 days too and didn’t respond to her last message. I was just kind of “meh” on both women and just not even sure I wanted to date really with COVID and I’m just not all that enthused about the whole dating process. To pull a line from
@Glassguy, “but the door is always open a bit,” which is true.
I checked my Hinge account earlier today for a few minutes. Nothing good. I just checked it again and it said I’ve been permanently banned for violating the terms of service. Keep in mind, I haven’t met anyone off of Hinge in about a year, and my messages are all benign chit chat about hobbies and work. I looked up how to contact Hinge’s support department, and they won’t even tell you why you were banned—you just get banned and that’s it.
So my thought is one of the two women I was chatting with, my gut says the neurologist because I could just tell she was very interested in me, got super pissed when I went dark and unmatched with me. When you unmatch with someone from Hinge, you choose why and I think there was an option saying the person was inappropriate on an in-person date or similar. My guess is she said we went out and I was inappropriate and tried to get me banned. Hinge could have easily looked at our chat transcript, which was quite plain and boring, so it couldn’t be that.
I mean WTF? OLD and women have bad enough reputations and now this? The dumb b*itch gets me banned because I didn’t answer her last question fast enough? What a c*unt. Just goes to show how vindictive women can be when you deny or reject them.
I really don’t care all that much, just wanted to pass long the story and see if anyone else has experienced anything similar.
My guess is Hinge is run by a bunch of femi-nazis and beta male wimps.
