I have done my best to fix this in post, but it may still be notable with headphones! I had my heater going while recording since it's been quite cold and my mic couldn't handle it I guess. Today we are reviewing the app Feeld! I decided to download this all on my own, and this is NOT a sponsored video despite the fact I am often requested to review dating apps. All opinions are my own. This is an app primarily designed for and by people looking to "open up" existing relationships to find thirds and flings. But it also has swingers, kinky folks and BDSM lifestylers as well. Not to mention every flavor of ENM possible: polyamory, relationship anarchy and monogamish and beyond. So: is it worth it? Let's discuss! :) looking for a triad relationship is valid. FWB's and ONS is valid. It's just funny how often I saw such similar things in SO many profiles. snippets of text shown are merely a half dozen of hundreds of profiles I saw like this while using the apps. It's just some lighthearted memeing my friends ▼▼▼ EVERYTHING ELSE ▼▼▼ Art by: @animositi on Instagram Credits/Attribution (Music): Artist: Audionautix Website: http://audionautix.com/ Track: Transportation Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/) Carefree by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1400037 Artist: http://incompetech.com/ All content used falls within fair use guidelines for education and commentary purposes. ▼▼▼ P.O BOX ▼▼▼ Evie M.
