Learning to swipe left and right.

As it turns out, I've been married for 25 years (in a row, to the same man). Consequently, I've never experimented with OkCupid, Tinder, and the like. So when I recently discovered the app called Shapr, it was a real novelty to me.

Shapr (a name that evokes a workout plan, in my opinion) lets professionals introduce themselves to other professionals who might make good business partners or clients. (As a copywriter, I'm on the lookout for freelance designers and folks with marketing needs.) The app Bumble has a similar feature called Bumble Bizz, but it also offers modes that cater to dating and friendship.

ANYway. As an utter newbie to this swiping business, I have occasionally swiped right by mistake (the horror!), and it took me a while to realize that reciprocal interest was required for an introduction. But I am learning!

I've had two face-to-face meetups this week, and they've been wonderful. I've really enjoyed the interactions, and I believe I might actually get some good business and possibly friendship out of the deal.

So, though I'm new to the swiping game, I'm happy to be here.

You are an anomaly! 25 years?? Does anyone do that any more?

You should talk! I'll bet you've been married twice that long. :)

This is excellent, Sara! I think I'll check out Shapr when I'm ready to take networking to the next level.
