Should I try using Tinder?

Hi, so I just turned 18 about 2 months ago and I’ve been thinking about downloading Tinder. I actually downloaded it a few weeks ago but I quickly got weirded out by it, so I ended up deleting the app. For one, I feel a little strange meeting up with someone I just met online (especially considering the fact I still don’t have my driver’s license.) I also don’t want to freak my parents out, because I know they’d definitely be concerned if I told them I was going to meet up with a stranger on the internet. And COVID is still a thing, so it would definitely be somewhat risky for me to go out and meet someone. Despite all this, the idea of trying to download it again is really exciting to me, and I’d really like to maybe find someone on there. Hell, I’ve never been in a relationship before, and I think I’m finally ready to meet someone. What do you think?
