I Let My Bumble Match Expire. Now I’m Spiraling.

Okay, so here’s my shame: I let my Bumble match expire. Like, literally just watched the clock run out because I was too anxious to say hi. (WHY AM I LIKE THIS?) Now I’m sitting here at 2AM, stalking my own match queue, hoping she’ll magically reappear. Apparently, Bumble is all about second chances—if you wait long enough, your expired match might pop up again. But there’s no timer, no warning, just endless swiping and praying. Unless, of course, you cough up for Premium or Boost. Then you can just hit Rematch and get another 24 hours to screw it up again. I’m not proud. I’m THIS close to paying for a dating app just to undo my own social paralysis. Is this adulthood? Or just rock bottom? Someone tell me I’m not alone in this. #NoFilter #DatingFail #WhyAmILikeThis #RomanticRelationships
