You probably don't interact with a lot of teens then. It's pretty common in high schools and college campuses. I was told a decade ago that my green bubbles were probably why women stopped texting me after I got their number off okcupid
If someone is turning you down because of some stupid Apple-manufactured social status, you deserve better than them

Fwiw, my partner and I met on OkC 5 years ago. It used to be so much better. I got really high one day and answered like a thousand questions, which got me really accurate match percentages. Shame it's trash now.
Bullet dodged
Oh, OKC used to rock a decade ago. Before they started the monitization efforts they had over a thousand questions that you could pre-sort matches based off of their importance to both of you. There wasn't swiping, you just actually looked at profiles. It really rewarded writing good profiles which I happen to do well
Oh, honey, that wasn't why...
It was, I got laid plenty in college. I meant I would get a woman's number, text her, then she would give 2/3 responses and disappear. It stopped almost entirely when I switched to asking for Snapchat instead
Too bad we can't completely isolate the variables.
