During her recent appearance on the podcast, YouTube powerhouse Valkyrae can be seen opening up regarding her love relationships and why she doesn't use dating websites and apps.

The streamer said that she got rid of all of the dating apps over fears that someone would recognize her and would only want to be in a relationship with her just because she is extremely famous and not because they like her for who really is.

Further diving deep into the matter, Valkyrae explained how she met a great guy on the dating app but had to cut it all due to her rigid streaming schedule and busy lifestyle. She noted:

"I uninstalled it, but I have tried dating apps. I get too paranoid that I’m gonna get recognized and that’s gonna be the reason why they’re trying to talk to me. I’ve gotten into the habit of installing it, uninstalling it. Installing it, and then uninstalling it. I’ve actually gone on a date through a dating app. He was wonderful, he was great, but then I got too busy and I cut things off.”

Furthermore, she stated that she has also tried some verified dating apps, which are only used by celebrities or famous people. Sadly, they didn't help her fear of getting recognized. Continuing the trail of thought, she further added:

"I’ve tried one of those apps before, and it’s still, you never know. Even if they’re verified, what if they’re like, ‘Oh my god, is that Valkyrae?"

In conclusion, Rachell revealed that she would like to meet someone natural, someone who doesn't want anything to do with her popularity and doesn't recognize her "out in the street."
