I think when you say "dating app" you better come with it hard.
Also, your numbers could use some improvement. You said you only did 63 dates but project 10 dates per user per month. I'm an ultra extrovert and I don't think I could deal with going on 10 dates per month. Further, if that were the case and people could do 10 dates per month on average, you should already be proving that statement. The market size is huge if you win the whole thing. But, the way you calculated it seemed off.
If I were to apply with a dating site or any other common app idea, my first sentence would be something I have learned that is profound. Without a profound insight, or major traction, a dating website probably looks like a low expected value.
One thing is certain, there will be killer dating apps that continue to come out over time and I doubt that tinder will be the last one.

I have got to digest all these points. If nothing I have got amazing points for marketing Truffle as well as improving our vision. For now all of our focus is on getting traction. Thank you for your feedback :)
Yeah man, my comment was kind of negative, but its definitely worth trying to see what people think. I think you need to work on your market sizing though. If you had talked to a few people about it, they should have caught it.
