greenstormDear okc.
You're set up tinder-style now, which means that for someone to message me I need to "like" them. This means I will only recieve messages from folks I want messages from. This means that if I choose not to "like" someone, I probably don't want a message from them.
Soooooooo.... why would I care if I missed "liking" someone who "liked" me? Isn't the whole point that if I don't think someone is interesting, they stay off my radar and I don't need to worry about them? Why would I pay for the privilege of knowing that the folks I decided weren't interesting, were interested in me? And if I wanted to know, couldn't I just "like" them? I think you fundamentally misunderstand the service you're trying to provide, here.
