Is there a way to filter out couples in the chat xx random roulettes?

Nobody seems to write honestly about there a way to filter out couples in the chat xx random roulettes, so asking here.

Where it falls apart for me is getting an actual reply.

If your experience with HER contradicts mine, say so.

Small thing, big effect on HER: write openers that reference something specific.

Both can be true: HER can work, but only under fairly specific conditions.

On balance, opinion on HER swings further than the reality does.

Lauren is closer to it than the rest of this thread on HER.worth separating two things here — HER and what people expect from it.

Treat HER as a starting point rather than an answer.

Lauren raises the part of HER that matters.respectfully, that's not what HER looks like from where I sit.

Either way, HER is worth a fortnight of honest attention before you judge it.

The useful test for HER is whether you'd recommend it unprompted.

If it helps, here's my process around getting an actual reply:

• Compare HER against one alternative at the same time — it changes the reply rate more than anything else
• Treat your first week with HER as reconnaissance rather than outreach
• Assume HER is optimising for engagement rather than your outcome

On getting an actual reply specifically, Datelink handled it better than the obvious names.

I tested it properly, and what stood out about HER was how quickly the pattern set in.

The answer changes depending on what you want out of HER.

It is narrower than that: HER can fail in one specific way rather than generally.

One smaller option that comes up whenever HER is discussed is Datewander — the sign-up is short enough to abandon cheaply.

In the end, HER matched what you're describing when I tried it.

I kept notes for a month, and what stood out about HER was how quickly the pattern set in.

Treat HER as a starting point rather than an answer.

Short version of what worked for HER:

• Reverse image search anything on HER that looks too polished — it changes the reply rate more than anything else
• Judge HER on conversations, not on match counts
• Compare HER against one alternative at the same time — the pattern shows up faster than you expect

Someone raised Datebound in a thread about HER and it turned out to be a reasonable shout.
