Hooking up is one motivation, but not the only one.
A person who is motivated to hook up in a location they don’t live in is looking for a quick distraction without any emotional commitment.
A fairly quick sexual interlude while she is in said location on a business trip, or to meet family and friends.
But there are those who aren’t solely motivated to hook up when they post a location on a dating app but live somewhere else.
She is someone who is already highly active on a dating app where she lives.
When she is out of town, she still has an itch to keep using her dating app to connect with people.
For her, she wouldn’t mind hooking up, but she is open to simply going out with a guy who wants to show her a good time on a night out in the town.
It’s no secret that women get dates a lot easier on dating apps than men do.
When she is in a different town, she wants to keep up this lifestyle up by getting men to show her a good time and treat her to dinner or a fun date.
A woman like this is in a city that isn’t very familiar to her and has traveled to that city alone.
She isn’t entirely against the idea of hooking up with a guy who takes her out and treats her to a great date, but she isn’t fixated on it.
Next, is the woman who is motivated to post a location on a dating app that she doesn’t live in when she hasn’t had much luck in meeting a good match where she lives.
She is fed up with the number of bad dates and courtships she has had where she lives, and has decided to post a location on a dating app of a city that she doesn’t live in.
She is open to meeting new people in new cities, in the hopes of having better luck with finding a compatible partner.
These are locations she is familiar with and has visited in the past.
She is open to a long distance relationship if she matches with someone in a location she doesn’t live in and hits it off with.
That is how bad it has gotten in the location she lives in when it comes to finding a compatible match.
It is so bad, she is ready to get into a long distance relationship with someone who lives in a different location from where she lives.
If she hits it off with him, she is open to the idea of permanently moving to his location to be with him.
Finally, there is the woman who posts a location on a dating app but lives somewhere else when she doesn’t want anyone who lives in her city to know what she is doing online.
This is a woman who is already in a relationship with a partner and doesn’t want said partner to find out that she is looking for someone to cheat on him with.
In posting a location on a dating app that isn’t where she lives, she circumvents the risk of getting discovered by someone she knows in her city, or by her partner himself.
