Are you a founder actively using dating apps?

As a founder, what's your craziest dating story on Tinder/Bumble/Hinge etc.

I've spoken to a lot of founders who get

  • Resumes in their DM's
  • Follow up messages for job applications (God knows how 🫠)
  • Enquiries for FT positions
  • Get subtle questions to know if they are hiring

Is this a very common thing amongst founders?

Could be the premise of a great NetFlix series - Fuckboi Founders.

Don't bother, I made the mistake of going on bumble dates. A lot of older women, some with kids, relentlessly message you because they think you offer economic stability. They google your name and see $$$, assume you are loaded.

The strategy seems to be to overwhelm you with messages so you have no time to 'shop around'. Chatting with even 2 or 3 people consumes way too much time for it to be a viable dating strategy.
