Hear me out. 3 months ago i bought 3 max tier 6 month subscriptions to tinder, bumble, and Hinge. 3 months into using all three apps i got really lucky and matched with my now girlfriend.

Things have been going really well, we have good chemistry, it is a great relationship. But there is a gigantic fight. She saw on my phone that i still have 3 dating apps installed on my phone. She demanded that i deleted them

Now i know that obviously how bad it looks from the outside. But i spent hundrends of dollars on a product and to just throw away my dating profile on a whim would be a gigantic waste of resources that i already poured so much time, money, and energy into. I dont even log into the dating apps or message other women on there, but if i get dumped or cheated on, it would be a fantastic safety net for me if i am collecting a couple likes a week for the months i am still dating my girlfriend.

If we stay together, perfect! Best case scenario, this is exactly what i always wanted out of paying for dating apps

If she dumps or cheats on me, then fine, i am glad i kept my profiles open collecting potential canidates.

I think it is unfair that women can have their social media wide open and recievie dozens of dms from random men on a daily basis, but if i try to keep the door open, i am suddenly a piece of shit? Should i delete my dating apps and throw away all my resources spent or should i keep my dating apps open but keep it a hidden secret? I want to reiterate, i have absolutely zero interest in cheating on her. I just view as a matter of fairness.

start using socials then, you'll probably get some chicks to follow you, or would have back when your relationship seemed fine.
>>
>>84601114

That is a negative. Does not apply to me.

I have absolutely zero female friends in person or on social media. My only female contacts are family and dating apps.
>>
>>84601120
just break it off with this chick then if you're that paranoid about her cheating/breaking up and go back to the apps
>>
If you don't delete them you won't have a girlfriend and you'll forever be that guy who wasted hundreds but blew his chance because "muh resources!"
>>
>>84601125
And what if every girl i ever date are all uncomfortable with their boyfriend keeping their dating profiles online and open?

It sounds like you are suggesting i just hide and keep the dating apps a secret?
>>
Delete that shit and do not tell your gf this.
>>
>>84601127
to add to this you better find a way to hide any porn or other shit you have on your pc/phone, she'd probably go ballistic after this shit lmao
>>
>>84601135
then delete the apps dumbass, im saying after you leave her/she leaves you just use them, or just use it casually if you're not gonna get rid of them
>>
>>84601127
>>84601138
>>84601136
>>84601147

Again it sounds like the majority consensus from all of you anons is to just lie and keep it a hidden secret. I am not hearing a better alternative
>>
Your gf is choosing you instead of those dozens of men. Your fear of missing out might fuck up the relationship
>>
>>84601156
She is choosing me and i am choosing her. The power unbalance is that she has an near infinite pool of men who will replace me the day after she dumps me.

I have no girl contacts or females in my life. 3 paid Dating app subscriptions are literally my only lifeline and it has proven to work at getting me access to female attention. I am not actively flirting or cheating. I am choosing my girlfriend over all the other girls on the dating apps
>>
>>84601173
yeah you see how you feel that way about her choices after it ends? she 100% believes that of you no matter how untrue it is, or probably thinks you're fucking around behind her back cause of you keeping the apps. delete them retard
>>
>>84601180
So i should delete the apps, lose the hundreds of dollars worth of subscriptions left, and give her all the power in the relationship to easily replace me by the guys in her social media at the drop of a hat with no back up plan or safety net for me? Explain how that is fair? Because it is clearly not.
>>
No women will ever be ok with you being on dating apps while being with them. The fact you have to hide it means you should delete it or hide it really really well. You're gonna give someone trust issues down the line
>>
>>84601190
you wasted hundreds of dollars when you paid for the subscriptions
>>
>>84601190
Can't you just sign in again later?
>>
>>84601196
So you are saying i should delete them because it is not worth the girlfriend drama?
>>84601199
Objectively false, dating app populations are 90 percent men to 10 percent women. They are designed to be pay to win. It is the only way.
>>
>>84601206
this too, most of these let you pause the account but the dumbass actually subscribed to their premium account thing, and hes trying to cope with wasting the money
>>
>>84601190
You don't seem cut out for relationships.
>>
>>84601206
My girlfriend is demanding that i delete all the accounts and apps. I can make new accounts later yes, but i would lose the all the power given to me by having 3 active subscriptions pumping my profile out to other women for the rest of my paid subscription which is 3 months for 3 different dating apps. That is alot of money to just throw away into the garbage.
>>
>>84601101
Just delete them, you don't lose the subscription if you do.
>>
>>84601219
this dude seems super fucking paranoid, and it probably will fuck over any hope of a long term relationsip.
>>84601225
is that how it works? figured it works like spotify premium or some shit
>>
>>84601173
This is a lot of men's positions because of how skewed the dating market is
>>
>>84601228
This dude is already showing abusive tendencies. Sad.
>>
Does op think if u uninstall Instagram it deletes your account? Brothers fried delete the apps ape
>>
>>84601225
I will absolutely lose the subscription if i delete the accounts and dont log into them for the next 3 months. Not sure how you missed that part.

>>84601228
How am i being paranoid? My girlfriend literally wants me to throw away hundreds of dollars be she is the one being insecure. This is such a double standard. Women can have dozens of men to monkey branch between once one relationship ends, onto the next one they go. But if a man copies the same tactics, he is deemed super fucking paranoid? Get real.
>>
>>84601101
that is NOT your girlfriend bro
>>
>>84601247
>I will absolutely lose the subscription if i delete the accounts and dont log into them for the next 3 months. Not sure how you missed that part.

I don't know about the other two, but in Tinder you get a code on the email they send you when you buy a subscription that you can use to keep that plan on a different account.
>>
How long have you been dating this women?
>>
>>84601246
Yeah WTF OP. If you delete the apps off your phone your tinder account still exists. You can just redownload the app and log straight back on when things fall apart.
>>
>>84601247
>he is deemed super fucking paranoid? Get real
considering you first off paid for the subscription, and continue to swipe then yea you're paranoid about the relationship ending, most people are fine trusting their gf/bf enough to not do this shit, its unhealthy. you'll probably repeat how its a double standard but you realize most guys that are following a girl on socials probably mean nothing to her unless they're a close friend
in b4 "b-but chad can steal her!" fuck off with this shit
>>
>>84601246
>>84601264
I honestly feel bad for people below 100 IQ. Look i understand the dating profile still exists even after i delete the app. That is not the issue. My girlfriend wants me to not look at, log into, or access any of the 3 dating profiles forever. The 3 months of paid subscription will run out completely dry. Thus being a waste of hundreds of dollars. Do you think you can process that simple idea?
>>
>>84601256
The internet is full of special people huh? Well let me break this down for all of you. 1. Buy 6 month subscription. 2. Have girlfriend at 3 months with 3 months left of 6 month subscription. 3. What is 6 minus 3? I will let you solve that riddle.
>>
>>84601269
Who wins the relationship power balance? The person who can walk away at any time with a new lover, or the person with zero opportunities if the relationship fails? You cannot seriously be this close minded if you think they are equal positions.
>>
>>84601246
I thought they do? my boyfriend deleted tinder after we got together and his phone reinstalled it because he had to get it fixed or something, and he said his account doesn't exist anymore since he deleted it
>>
>>84601332
The Tinder app is just a specialized web browser. Uninstalling it doesn't delete your account any more than uninstalling Firefox or whatever deletes your YouTube account.
>>
>>84601295
Redownload and log in without her knowing. Its sad that you're this neurotic and insecure in a happy relationship. I did this too but ended up breaking up with them because I couldn't help but resent them and this stuff was driving me insane(the idea that they can move on and forget about me without batting an eye)
>>
>>84601295
Ya you're a fucking idiot of course she doesn't want you on dating apps while you're in a relationship don't buy the 6 month package and then fuckin blog on 4chan about how half of it is wasted because u found someone. I'm the retard though surely
>>
this is the part where men fail

if she shit tests you, shit test her back
say to her face "prove you're actually gonna stick around and I'll delete the apps"

the ball is in your court, now is your chance to assert dominance and force her hand
>>
>>84601101
>I dont even log into the dating apps or message other women on there,
You should, she's 100 % guaranteed to be talking to other men very day as well so you just lose if you're not doing the same.
>>
>>84601127
this.
you're retarded, OP.
you're being a woman "what if I can do better"
"what if she cheats on me" all women cheat eventually
do you want a girlfriend or not
you can always spend 100s on apps again
you'll never get a chance with this girl again
You need to date her tk realize how dumb it is to have a girlfriend, how much it disrupts your peace
>>
>>84601101
How much of a fucking loser are you to need 6 months subscriptions on dating apps? Nigga, i never paid for that bullshit and i still got bitches
>>
>>84601101
Rookie mistake by not having a second phone you use solely for dating apps.
>>
>>84601101
Can't you like go inactive on these so your profile isn't shown to anyone and then reactivate it in case you break up? I don't think those apps delete your profile just because you delete the app, no?
>>
>>84601155
a better alternative is to not be a retarded faggot
>>
>letting another soul look at your phone
>>
>>84601101
WHY THE FUCK ARE THERE SO MANY SOCIOPATHIC NORMIES IN MY BOARD. GO BACK TO TWATTER OR SOME SHIT HOLY SHIT
