    The only fix I came up with, is to charge people some amount up front, then if they’re still active weekly users in 6 months, they get a refund. That would create a better incentive structure for the app.

        You think someone would give up on a real relationship just to a some money back?
        Would you? How much money would be worth giving up on “The One”?

            Are those similar in some way? I don’t see the connection.

            Even if your “Stupid is as stupid does” argument is true. Do you think it’d be common enough to be a problem? How common?

        I’ve been looking for you my whole life, Tracy. If we stay together, though, I’d lose my €24.99 subscripton refund with Tinder"
