I wonder about this. How many people are not on the dating sites to engage and meet someone special but rather to either hope their ex sees them, gets jealous and wants them back OR they are on there rebounding from an ex? I say this because I have been on dating apps on and off over the last few years and so many guys I met were clearly still attached to their ex. I found out after dating someone for a short time that he was in communications with his ex the entire time and that his whole reason for going on the app was in hopes that she would find out and want him back. LOL, makes me wonder how much time I have wasted and this would also explain why people ghost - maybe they succeeded in getting their ex back? Thoughts?
