For me, it was definitely a huge money saver. Working in tech (now a remote job), not drinking, not being religious, and having extremely "meet a girl" friendly hobbies like hiking and gaming ... it was extremely limiting.
A 1 time $150 was a steal compared to some of the other apps like the scam that is eharmony.
Wow we're like the same person... Maybe I should give this lifetime Bumble a try
I mean, if you're wasting money on other apps... And you just want an app with a pretty good population that you're not constantly paying money into and also not artificially knee capped on... It's a pretty good deal assuming they still offer it
I was you for 5 years (12 hour shifts 7-7, 6 months night, 6 months day, worked 3 days a week and every other Saturday) but in Manhattan. I bought 3 and 6 month subscriptions and I think that was the only time I actually got dates on there. I was surprised when I got one a few months back on a free account.
