“why tf are you on here if you’re 30” why are you self-infantilizing so hard that you’re acting a 30 year-old participating in casual convos with 20-somethings is tantamount to standing around outside a high school?

Some older people on here are also in school - it’s not a dating app, it’s about shared experiences. Like isn’t the .edu thing enough gatekeeping? Are you this exclusionary to older undergrads and grad students irl?

compared to a 30 year old we should be 😭 there’s a huge maturity and life experience gap between a 20 year old and a 30 year old. obv not true for every person, but for the most part any 30 year old intentionally trying to be around 18-22 year olds is weird

there’s undoubtedly plenty of legit creeps on here, but personally I can’t imagine being desperate enough to use an anonymous app to try and hit on people when dating apps exist

it’s not exclusive but that doesn’t make it less weird for a 30 year old to still be in a group that is ALMOST exclusively made up of college students. idk make whatever excuses you want but it’s weird

why not make a group of 30 year olds if you want to keep using this platform so bad? why not actually do something where you’re surrounded by people your own age? why do you NEED to be in communities with college students and whyyy are you throwing a fit when those people (who are adults! but who generally have far less maturity and life experience than a 30 year old) rightfully call you weird for intentionally hanging around people a decade younger than you?

they don’t even require a .edu address to sign up. I was on here for a couple months before I even realized there was any level of integration with schools—the description in the App Store doesn’t say anything about college either

and it’d still be weird if they decided to use an app where the vast majority of people were 18-22. also sorry the idea of being 30 and deciding to get on here is so embarrassing 😭 even if you’re in school what exactly are you trying to find? what parties you aren’t going to bc you’re 30?

irl friends and chatting anonymously about random shit online are two very different social contexts. and maybe you say that because your only point of reference is straight people, but personally, few of the people my own age that I know are married

I can deal with being perceived as cringe, but the conclusions you’re jumping to re: me being on here are patently goofy. like #5 said, this is not a dating app. what’s embarrassing to me is people who try to use an anonymous app that’s no longer even location-based to go looking for someone to e-date and I’m physically disabled, I’m not exactly looking for parties to attend in general lmao

I’d never go to an undergrad party but I do want to know when there’s free milkshakes on campus or whatever people know about the gunshots I just heard or whatever. Like if there was an anonymous app for just my grad program I’d totally use it instead but that’s not a thing.

because a group that was Only people in their 30s wouldn’t be very active, and the whole reason I’m on here is because there aren’t any apps with this same type of format thatre similarly active. a group that was late-20s and up would be great but idk why I would need to make that a cutoff. it’s really not that deep, and I’m not sure what part of publicly disclosing my age and repeatedly saying it’s perfectly fine if you’d rather block me constitutes “throwing a fit”
