So, Wassup guys, I'm back to talk to you about my little search on Tinder. Don't be angry with me, I'm on my own too. Anyway if you have considered dating online, I am here to share my experiences with you about Tinder. Please note, if you are going to use Tinder, this is at your own risk. There are a lot of dangers in online dating, and I went on a single date after proper questions and evaluation.
You want to know what Tinder is?
It's a free app available on iOS and Android that lets users view potential suitors within a predetermined radius and age range - ranging from 18 up.
Daters can drag right to "love" a profile and left to dismiss it.
Two people who have "loved" each other's profiles are considered a match, and can start messaging via the application.
The app includes the ability to expose and remove other users, and report people who may have been offensive.
Creating the entire thing is actually a very simplex process, but if it's a free account you must have a few number of likes on your profile to start receiving matches as I have noted. So better leave it behind for a couple of weeks and then start swiping left or right. My account I left for about a month for me to start swiping. When you start shuffling the first 15 or 20 images are good people. This is meant for you to believe tinder has good-looking people. Touché right!
Here is my story so, no one ever texted me back because I always said Hi. So the conversation ended up on mere greetings and yes it happens everywhere. You say Hi automatically you are boring. I had to do my research on cheesy pickup lines to start a conversation. That's another blog post for another day. Hey don't be huffy, lets focus on you getting a date lol.
Okay! Okay! I will share one pickup line... So I swiped right and it was a match. This guy like movies says on his Bio. So the opening up of the conversation was '"HEY THERE I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO TAKE YOU TO THE MOVIES, BUT THEY DON'T ALLOW SNACKS IN"' Yes its cheesy, but it worked we had a lovely conversation. He popped the question. No he didn't propose lol he asked for my number. When we started texting I realized the worst he was seeing someone else, but wanted to hook up with me. So is tinder a place for hooking up or dating site, I don't know really.
The other one said he worked overseas but came back to SA because of COVID-19. Did I buy that nah? Shh! Don't tell him, he will report me on tinder. This one I didn't need pickup line because he matched with me.
Now this is the worst one. He has a stalker's behavior. We talked and laughed gave him my number and because he was nice. Later that day I received his text asking for my picture, of which I didn't understand what kind cause his exact words when 'I want to see you' just like we misplaced the words Netflix and chill. Leave a message below, and I will tell you what it means. Anyways so I told him I'm busy, and I ignored him. He left four messages including that question of pictures. I ignored him then he started blowing up my phone through phone calls. This led to me blocking him, and he had the audacity of texting me with another number and yes I blocked the number again. Not only if that was not enough he texted saying that I was a big ugly fool looking for sex from a stranger. I went on tinder reported him and unmatched him. When you unmatch your chat disappears on both parties. Immediately my phone notified me that a blocked number just sent me a message. I checked, and it was him saying you're a fool for reporting me.
Is tinder safe when reporting, I don't know, Research said you report and delete account in order for them not to use your info when evaluating your report. Anyways, wait for the blog post on how to deal with perverts, stalkerish people and how to start a conversation with your match. Hoping to hear wedding bells from you lol. SEE YOU SOON AND BE SAFE! BYE!
PS. xoxo
