After they've had enough fun living their best single lives, many single ladies begin looking for the real thing - that sweet, serious relationship. So what that search look like in 2021? With the modern invention of dating apps, you'd think that finding that Instagram-worthy relationship would be easy peasy. But because dating is an absolute dumpster fire no matter what time period you're dating in, you'd be oh, so wrong. While there are a select few that have somehow managed to find love on dating apps against all odds, the rest of us mere peasants on Twitter are trying our best and failing miserably. Scroll down for this week's most painfully relatable tweets about dating apps.  

In today's modern dating scene where dating apps and hookup culture are all the rage, friends with benefits and one-night stands are all the rage right now for those who aren't interested in commitment. Women are taking the wheel when it comes to their sexcapades, which means they're booking their own d*ck appointments on a weekly basis. It seems like we're somehow more confident when it comes to booking d*ck appointments instead of doctor appointments. We should probably fix that and make it more of an equal balance because we shouldn't be having d*ck appointments regularly without regular check-ins. But I digress - scroll down for the funny sh*t the women of Twitter have to say about their recent and upcoming appointments. 

Being a single pringle on the lookout for love is a struggle, and I'm not sure if dating apps make the process better or worse. The people of Twitter come for dating apps on a weekly basis, and their experience on the apps ranges from hilarious to actually ridiculous. I'm starting to think that finding love on the apps isn't as easy as the swipe of a button unless I'm missing something here. Anyhoo, scroll down for the best of this week's dating app tweets. 

Dating is already a whirlwind of funny stories and emotions, but dating apps? A total game-changer. It doesn't matter what app you're on. Every app has its fair share of weirdos, douchebags, and catfishes. In a world where everyone can be who they wanna be online, what you see isn't always what you get. The people on dating apps also happen to be on Twitter, where they document their experiences and reactions to the apps on a weekly basis. Scroll down 

Dating apps are a weird place. Whether you're on Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, OkCupid, or all of the above, you'll come into contact with many, many weirdos before meeting your Prince Charming - if you do end up meeting him on these apps at all. People take to Twitter on a weekly basis to laugh at their weird dating app experiences. Naturally, we've compiled the best ones from this week for your viewing pleasure. Scroll down and enjoy the realities of the modern dating scene. 

We're all out here trying to fill the empty void in our lives with love. By 2021, dating apps have taken the world by storm, serving as the tools that are meant to help us find love in this digital era. Tinder, OkCupid, Hinge, Bumble, or whatever app you're on - you're looking for love, but beneath the facade of love that the apps are poisonous strangers instead of the fuzzy good stuff we're all looking for. The people of Twitter know the disappointment of dating apps all too well and take to the platform to share their thoughts on a weekly basis. Scroll down for the funniest tweets about dating apps from this week. 

Modern romance is something else. Meaning I'm not really sure it exists anymore. Dating apps have taken over all our phones in recent years, and we've all been the victims of some pretty strange messages. Twitter user @solodeauxleaux asked people to share the weirdest messages that they received on the apps, and things got super weird real quick. Whether it be women demanding money to score a date with them or men asking if someone is fertile, these messages are next level. Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, Bumble - doesn't matter which app you use, none of us are safe. Scroll down for the craziest messages on the thread. 

Dating apps are 100% one of those things you don't believe in until it works out for you. Like astrological signs, or working out. You might have to deal with a lot of BS before something realistically nice comes out of it. And, of course, it depends on what you're looking for. But really, many statisticians have shown that regardless of your goals, there are small adjustments you can make to your profile to make it more appealing, and certain phrases you really ought to ignore.

One brave man on Reddit shared his own personal piece of advice.

If you've ever been in the world of online dating, it can feel like an existential nightmare. Swiping through hundreds upon hundreds of people, trying to find your special person, is like looking for a needle in a haystack. But hey, all it takes is one right swipe to get your perfect match, right? Wrong. It turns out, you might just be wading through a pool of bots and fighting an algorithm that is designed to keep you on the app as long as possible, take your money, and not encourage you to find your match at all. These previous employees of online dating services have shared the dark secrets behind the algorithms and tricks they use on their customers, which you may have lost hours of your life to. Scroll down if you dare.

Just about everyone who speaks to men on dating apps has had their fair share of creepy and gross messages. It's something of a rite of passage, and the sheer volume of Facebook posts and Reddit threads featuring screenshots of inappropriate texts is proof that men as a collective need a dressing-down (#yesallmenneedmyadvice).

Below is a series of screenshots of text conversations from dating apps where the guy said something pervy. I'm going to tell them, on behalf of all you beautiful online daters out there, how they could have gotten a date instead (hint: it's usually "just be normal"). Read on!

Online dating is truly a minefield of sh*t shows, masking as men ready to date. Finding a good match is like a needle in a haystack, and you have to weed your way through a lot of troughs to find something worthwhile. The art of seduction has been truly lost to the crude openers found on dating apps, such as the awkward pickup lines seen in these Tinder screenshots. Scroll through and join me in saying RIP to the romance of times gone by.

Much like approaching someone in a bar, dating apps leave you vulnerable to all sorts of rejection. Whether the person you've matched with straight-up ignores your messages, or they reply politely telling you that they're not interested, unfortunately, it's all part of the dating game. One girl on Tinder, however, clearly doesn't understand the rules, and upon being explained to politely by a guy she had matched with that he had met someone else, she lost her mind and went totally berserk. Check out how calmly he manages the situation and how
