Tinder and Dating

This is one of those things I don’t really know much about. I haven’t had much experience with relationships, and my experience with Tinder is poor. Perhaps it’s because of my lack of experience that I am not willing to give it my all, am I afraid of messing up, that I won’t be good enough? I’m working on my self-esteem, and for the past several months I’ve been making myself swipe more, and today I made a profile on another platform that isn’t as focused on one night stands and the hookup culture presented around me in todays society.

If you immediately unmatch someone on Tinder, will they still be notified?  - Quora

With every match I am sending the first message if they have not sent one before me. I am not entirely sure what to say. I do not want to just shower someone I don’t know with affections as it may taint their perspective, I don’t want something just for the sake of having it, but a relationship that will help both of us grow into more compassionate, caring, kind people. I am working on putting myself out there more. The failures will only be lessons to further my success, to better myself and others. The goal of finding a partner; a life mate. Until then The sun comes up again tomorrow, and we shall try again then too.
