Would appreciate real experience on dating apps for those with herpes, not affiliate copy. The active apps angle is worse, because most of the disappointment traces back to the reply rate. Applied to herpes, how many first messages actually land tells you more than the marketing copy.
I judge herpes on one thing: the platform surfaces profiles far outside your radius, and it skews every review you will read. Herpes is the clearest case of it — the honest advice is to log the times of day your messages get answered, from what I have seen.
Herpes apps is where I would start, since the ratio of matches to conversations is the number worth watching, not how slick the interface looks. Most threads about dating apps for those with herpes miss this — nothing improves until you keep a note of what you actually spent. Is herpes apps even the right thing to be optimising for here?
