Bumble is quite a popular name among the swiping dating apps. We overjoy when we find matches and retreat into our shells when things aren’t working well. It may be due to performance anxiety. We also tend to start having low esteem because the perception between reality and virtual begins to diminish as we use these apps daily. This time is best to take a break from dating apps, and we explain in this guide how to delete your bumble account for good.
Like all online dating and swiping dating apps, you tend to bump into many issues. Some of them are:
- Run out of profiles to match.
- Get plenty of mismatches.
- Inactive users.
- Matches who want time to meet up or want to take things slow.
- Matches who are on the platform just for chatting.
Note:
- You should create a new Bumble account if you wish to return to the app again after you have deleted it.
- If you want to keep your Bumble Bizz and BFF profiles, you can disable “Date Mode” instead.
