Have you looked at her fingers? Does she have a ring?

No ring, but even the married ones may remove it for exercising.

Only if he initiates messaging everyday then usually it means there’s an ulterior motif more than just friendship; if it’s just once in a while then it’s nothing, just friendship with a coworker.

Then I know a lot of attractive women who rarely get approached.
Oh, but they don't have Tinder accounts and their Facebook is about interests not bathrooom selfies.



You know, I believe you, men are scared to approach women nowadays.

There’s that cute lebanese girl in gym who has been a member there for so long, she looks shy and reserved.

She looked at me today, but i did nothing, maybe she was looking at my direction and I was simply having wishful thinking.

She is not showing any significant sign of interest and I can find no way to break the ice. So I don’t approach her.

Pride.

I’ll never approach women. They are never interested in me as I’ve learned.

I've noticed this, too. It'd be interesting to know if Tinder does this with the permission of the women in question, some of whom are obviously models by trade.


Of course it's Tinder themselves who are doing this, and of course they're taking the permission of these women, both will benefit from this the most.

Almost t all these Models have their profiles linked to Instagram (you can link your Tinder to Instagram and it appears at the bio's bottom on tinder) - so they are probably dealing with Instagram model "influencers".

Do you have any idea how much money these models/Influencers make on Instagram? The more followers they get the more advertising companies pay them, Look it up.

I figured I was being paranoid, but I have felt that there is a ton of fake profiles being run by bots. Slightly off topic since I think this one was from a real person, but the other day someone matched with me and instantly sent a message that read "Okay honestly I matched because I was scared like if I didn't I'd be haunted." What the heck does that even mean??

Could be humour , message back something funny ( haunted related humour ). e.g. I'm not the ghosting type

Thanks for the tip, I did exactly that. Fell back on humor because I wasn't sure what she was going on about. Perhaps I am just grotesquely haunting. I guess I should remove my profile if the mere sight of me is that disturbing to others. :)

Yes, she seemed preoccupied though, so I fully expect ghosting and an unmatch.
