Atup. There's a lotta guys who think dating apps are akin to ordering a woman online and then finessing the edges and they always get ragingly shitful when they find out women are actually people and don't want that bullshit.
(This is outside of transactional hookups where people just wanna fuck)
There's a lot of flawed logic on all sides.
And that's not even accounting for the inherently deeply complex and illogical stuff that goes along with dating too.
When I was actively pursuing online dating years ago, some of my best dates were the one and done dates where we both seemed to know early on that we probably weren't interested in each other as long term partners but were mature enough to acknowledge that without taking it personally and enjoy a much more relaxed rest of the date. On one of those occasions, my date even suggested that while I wasn't a good match for her, if I were interested, she'd give her roommate my number, thinking we'd be better.
In the end it never happened, but it just shows that just because one or both halves of a date may not want a second date, that's not a failing of either one, necessarily.
