Tinder

Who uses it? Who has met someone? Come on, dish the goss

I've never used Tinder, though I have used other dating sites.

I've stopped using dating sites because of the scammers.

I've used it for a bit, but without much success.

It might be because I'm picky, but I've only had a couple of matches that I've talked to, and none of those panned out. All of the others either didn't reply or were bots.

Now if only I could ask the girls in my class, but I seem to be too chicken-shit to do it without the aid of alcohol.

I swipe right exclusively and either get bots or people who don't ever want to talk lol

Likewise I swipe right 90% I don't even really look anymore and only got matched with bots

Out of probably thousands of not ten thousands of women no ones swiped right no me.
I also swipe right in bumbler, okcupid and pof every day

I've used Tinder before, and while I didn't meet my current boyfriend there, I have been on some dates. It would be interesting when I traveled because I would get to meet people I wouldn't get to meet otherwise. Where I live though, it's filled with pretentious people and horrible characters who don't even want to be in a relationship. It's mostly about sex and passing the time with an app. I've noticed that it inflates the egos of shallow people and that's pretty much it. Even when I used it to meet the people I did, it felt a bit futile.

From age 12-16 I have had 3 girlfriends I ALL met on Tinder and am now engaged to be married at 18 from my current girlfriend I met from Tinder at age 16.

Instead, I've had a decent number of matches and some decent conversations, but nothing's come of it and I grow bored with online dating very fast because I dislike online dating, specifically speaking to strangers online when I'd rather meet people in real-life.

I'm lucky to be bisexual. I had a hookup with a guy two days ago, which was fun (but very awkward), and I'm going to see a girl in her dorm tomorrow. Tinder has been more of a success ever since I got to a university.

I assume that it is even more superficial than traditional online dating.

In theory the idea sounds nice; it's good to know they're already physically attracted to you initially (that is hoping you don't get matched with someone who just swipes right on everyone), but in practice it is not.

I've pondered sometimes how well a 'Reverse Tinder' would fare - a brief description of personality and personal attributes is shown (longer than the amount of words Tinder's brief description section allows) and then once you swipe right, the screen flips as if flipping a card to show the user's face on the 'other side'.

Then you can either flip the card back to the personality description to check it again, swipe right to show you're interested in them, or swipe left to say you're not interested in them.

Also, dating sites should not force you to have to fill in certain details such as your sexuality or your Income.

They give you the option to say 'Rather Not Say' but this will only make people assume the worst.

Yeah, it's pretty bad. To the point where using it seriously is usually a waste of time. Though I met a really cool dude off there.

Tinder's results differ greatly by area, in my area it's almost useless for me:

btw, people, use Timber which is found in windows app store , it's a desktop client for tinder and far better than tinder's interface itself.

It also has the option to change location for free.

Why would I change location? I can't afford to travel overseas and want s relationship.

Maybe foreign women with a bit of a language barrier and who probably don't know who Emil is or anything about Nier or video games in general are more my niche.







First conversation I've had in more than a few months lol. Probably still a fake, someone trying to scam me if not a bot. It's happened before in plenty of places, always sucks. Do have a thing for Dominican I guess but it's a problem if we can't understand each other.

I saw the latest Catfish tonight and it was about Tinder.

They have good baseball players down there.
