I Changed My Race to White on Hinge

Do you know how humbling it is to get to the very end of the men on a dating app? When you have literally swiped through them all and have to start over, looking at the same guys you passed on, waiting for new ones to join? This happens regularly on Hinge because I only look at the Black guys. I’ve been swiping past some of these men for years. Like, “John, 38, no job in bio” and I have rejected each other since the Trump administration.

I’ve been online dating for a little over a decade now.
