Bumble, Where You (Technically) Make the First Move

I've had a crush on Bumble since they launched back in 2012 and I was a newly single dating scaredy-cat. I love the idea of a feminist dating app that requires the lady to make the first move. However, it turns out I'm actually not a first-move-maker. Nevertheless, I've found a controversial workaround for Bumble that gets me a large portion of my dates, and while many of my friends have adopted this practice with winning results, others have argued we're cheating the system. To each one's own, but I still think Bumble is one of the best apps for meeting quality people and will continue my method of saying hello with only a waving girl emoji until they tell me I can't.
