I'm addicted to dating apps

So I am extremely lonely during this pandemic, so I go to dating apps to see if I connect with anybody. I can't seem to, so I leave the app soon after. But the thing is, I keep coming back and it is sorta draining me. Does anybody have any advice on what to do?

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    I'm not dyslexic, but sometimes I misread things, and when I read this I initially thought it said, I'm addicted to dating apes.

        When you say you're addiction is it an addiction to looking at the dating apps, or do you feel like you're maybe getting addicted to dating like a sex, and love addict? Does this interfere with other parts of your life?

    Just use one and then plan to go out with one you love.

    It is like going to an animal shelter to see which pet talks to you.

    Start reading a lot of really interesting books so that whenever you feel the pull of dating apps you could just say: "Nope, not today. I'm already in a monogamous relationship with KNOWLEDGE. Now begone" and then you'd feel really cool and accomplished or something
