Tinder thread. Here to share stories and give advice.
never had any luck on tinder.
>>22808982
I never dated before, wanted to goof off on tinder and hope that maybe I'll get some likes. However I have a relatively low self esteem when it comes to women and I feel uncomfortable with the idea of uploading a picture of myself online. Is it worth playing around with? Not really expecting anything serious, because I'm waaaaay too young and all the girls my age don't give a shit about dating. (I'm 24 btw)
>>22808982
Been on it for a week ... No luck hooking up , only spam bots.... The new update fucked it up tho
>>22808982
Is it worth it if I'm an 18 year old male? I've never had a relationship before. I'm out of school and haven't got a job yet, so I don't have any opportunities to talk to girls, not that I did much before. I don't even really want to just fuck someone, I just want a girl to hang out with who has some of my interests. I've been kinda put off by the fact that you need to give Tinder so many permissions on your phone and that you need to use Facebook (which I haven't used in years)
>>22809947
you also need to have a valid phone number... you can just create a fb page tho... I look a solid 7.5-8.5 out of ten and i havent had any luck on the site yet
>>22809947
I've had some really good success with Tinder lately. If you're in a college town or any highly populated area with attractive young chicks, it's money
>>22809990
I'm in Houston
>>22810000
Get on that shit
How do I increase my matches above zero?
>>22810779
I would remove the climbing picture crop the suit picture so only you are on it.
Dont talk in 3rd person ''takes halloween too seriously'' remove the seinfeld thing and tell about yourself maybe :/
If that is your profile I mean :D
How's this?
>>22810942
Looks super serious. Maybe show some teeth
>>22810779
Wait until a girl who is into asians sees your profile.
Also improve your bio.
>>22810942
You are using too much complex dialog. 80% of girls will just skip you because of this.
>>22810942
Dont want to insult but you look like serial killer in some pictures.
Main pic and the two black and white ones.
>>22810942
and sexy coward?
>he likes Daniel Johnston
>he doesn't swipe right
If a girl comes to your house for dinner at night on the first date, is it reasonable to assume sex? Or no
I'm the guy from last thread with 1000 matches, had two successes this week already. One Monday, one Tuesday. Giving advice and personal experiences if anyone's interested.
Anyone got any tips on how to improve my profile? Haven't gotten many matches.
>>22813163
I'm a black guy, do I automatically lose at tinder?
>>22813163
are you from QC?
>>22813198
Yes, Quebec has lots of hotties
>>22813194
Not sure, I have an Indian friend who gets girls anyway. Got called brown Jesus by one girl
>>22813212
im from Quebec also but dont get any matches got any tips ? this is me >>22813181
I have no idea what my opening line should be. She goes to my uni. Tips?
>>22813181
Here's my profile, I think your description is good. Maybe get new pics? I get a lot of messages: hey batman. Apparently there's a lot of geeky tinder girls.
>>22813269
Other pic. My opener is usually the same: you look beautiful :) hope you're having a great week!
>>22813239
im masturbating to your pics right now and there's nothing you can do about it, how does this make you feel
^ Shes a slut and most likely it'll make her laugh and it'll work.
>>22813289
that's pretty fucking weird man.
>>22813269
>>22813279
okay ill try to get some new pics thanks man!
I just got home from a catfish. Pfff.
Hey I got a question, how do you approach someone that you only want to fuck, and only if they make doing so easy.
Some times I hit it off with ladies, only because I think socializing is fun, but not because I think they are anything special. And then I feel like I am only making a calculation of how likely it is that we will fuck in the next 24 hours. Its easy to progress the relationship when I like them, but when I dont and they are still around the bottom edge of fuckable, what do I do?
I dont know, anyone know what I mean?
>>22810779
Dont make the comment about Lyft. Dont say anything that makes you sound disorderly, even if jokingly. Make the red jacket picture your main one. The smiling one is good, just dont make it your primary. Staring at the camera and smiling is like, not manly or something. Chicks dont like it.
>>22813067
Loved this movie
>>22809106
I think it's good to just practice talking to girls. It gets a lot easier in time. And there are girls on tinder looking for a serious relationship. A lot of them straight out say it in their profiles.
>>22813349
Quebec guy here. I got catfished only one time. Now I always make them add me to fb or Snapchat if I suspect they're not legit.
I also have the same problem with girls I'd rather just fuck, what I do is get more flirty/direct and and see how they react.
>>22813457
Thanks Quebec guy.
How's this for a description?
>>22813516
Wouldn't put video games first.
>>22813516
Perfect man, mine mentions sushi too and a lot of girls ask to grab some with me
Okay, so I just started using Tinder a while back and I've been matched up with somebody that's pretty much my type and shares a great deal of similar interests between me and her. We were matched up about a week ago and I gave her my number (my internet is pretty shotty) and all has been well up until a few days ago when she just stopped talking to me all together. It was weird because we were in a conversation and all of a sudden she stopped texting me for no reason at all. I tried texting her yesterday with no responses and I feel like it was me. And I know I didn't say anything that would offend/weird her out in any way, maybe her phone has had problems? Or I'm just insane?
>>22808982
Is Tinder any good for people 30+? I'm 31 and refuse to make a facebook, so tinder is off limits for me. I've went out with probably a dozen women from OKCupid, dated/slept with some of them, but tinder might help me score some strange a little easier.
Soooooo many fake female profiles on there. Just this week I have received 3 messages from scammers trying to get my credit card info via an external "verification" website.
>>22813516
Totally unexceptional. Maybe thats not a problem.
Question. Is Gk2Gk as worthless as the next says?
I was looking around it and it doesn't seem too bad, a good chunk of the girls seem to exist as they reference things in my area.
If you have used it, does active mean online?
>>22813545
I had a girl message me two weeks after ghosting me. Maybe she has a lot of personal shit going on that she's dealing with, so don't let it get to your head.
>>22813565
Ya there's 30 year old women on there too, and I've met some 20 year old tinder girls who are into older men and don't think 30s is a big deal. Also, just make a fake Facebook account and set the pics you post to private so your profile would look blank to anyone else.
What are your chances of finding a girl if you're a guy with a job in his early 20's but you still live with your parents?
Ideally I'd like to move out before trying to get women, but rent is expensive.
What do I say?
Im losing hope. I might just say something dumb for the keks.
>>22813634
That makes it complicated, I might even avoid mentioning as long as possible. A lot the girls I meet are living with their parents, so the only option is bringing them back to my place.
>>22813658
Is there anything in her pictures that shows her interest? Ask her what sports she's into, since she's in good shape.
getting unmatched in the middle of a convo always stings...
>>22813691
No it doesnt. You need to be comfortable making high risk comments.
>>22813680
Shes got blue hair, and cat ears on in another picture.
Oh what.
This girl just asked me out to get drinks right now. Our conversation died like a month ago. What do.
I dont really feel up to it desu. Would I be a dope if I turned this down?
>>22813774
nah just say fuck it and go for it. Nothing to lose mang
>>22813774
Ya it might be a one time deal
New to Tinder as of 1h ago. Got three matches. I still cant really believe it given my description. Is it good or should I change something? Am quite picky because swedish girls.
>>22813740
ask her what she's up to tonight, be casual. Work with what she says.
>>22813605
I'll try not to anon. Though it's hard trying to think about all of the negatives as to what could of possibly happened. But another serious question is should I try texting her back soon or wait a bit? I don't want to look desperate but if she's not ignoring me I don't want her to think I've lost interest myself..
>>22813803
Haha maybe they didn't read your profile or they're into that
>>22813823
Well they are swedish so probably
"Looking for my third wife. Allahu akbar"
>>22813814
Nah bro, never message back too many messages in a row, beginner mistake. Waiting sucks, I know.
>>22813163
pls post profile need to know what im working with
>>22810942
you'll get the tilt on the intense 3rd year politz gurls who aren't good looking?
>>22813269
lol you have hollywood facial features, are clean cut, look sane and have a gimmick
also >sushi
that is great man, good subterfuge.
>>22813774
may as well
she says she's a sapiophile so fucking bring your a-game and fuck wit her head
or plan b:
she's desperate for the d is the only reason she has asked you out, so ride with it be friendly and get fukt. probably no need to be flirty since she's desperate and will push it along herself
>>22809106
>waaaaay too young and all the girls my age don't give a shit about dating
>24
u wut m8?
>>22809947
>>22813565
I don't use fb either, you can create an empty account, set everything to private and use that, works for me.
>>22809980
6 on a good day here, had my fair share of luck there
>>22813160
It's reasonable to expect that, but don't just assume it's happening
>>22813545
could be anything, like this >>22813605
but could also be that you were being to friendly and she got bored
anyway, if you talked a lot for a week and didn't ask her out you're doing it wrong
>>22813634
last two dates I got from tinder I went out without even asking what they do for a living and without they knowing that about me as well
so, I'd say this is irrelevant
>>22813658
say something dumb for the keks, but funny dumb, not weird dumb, try to get a conversation going after that
seriously, say whatever comes to mind, don't think too much about it
>>22813691
it shouldn't m8
Three photos is best number of photos.
Four if the 4th is really fucking awesome/funnny and you're going to a particular type of girl.
One of you looking good
One with friends
One doing something
I have no idea how to make conversation flow though. How do you chat chicks up? I can get them talking but whenever I approach the topic of meeting it's sudden disinterest and no responses galore.
>>22813181
"rocker style, partying" thats autistic dude
>>22813269
>>22813279
>>22814520
These are me, wasn't clear I guess
>>22814609
Ya man, I cover a lot of ground. The sushi thing alone gets me a lot of messages.
debating if I should delete the last photo or not
>>22810779
match with me because you're pretty qt. I like the bio, but idk about girls in your area. although deleting the climbing pic is a good idea
>>22810942
the "morally irredeemable" bit makes you seem like you take yourself way too seriously. and you have a somewhat scary "I'm going to kill you" face in your main pic
>sexy coward
no
>>22813181
>rocket style, partying
I like both those things but putting it in your bio like that seems like you're trying too hard to seem cool or that you have a busy social life. and if it's meant to be sarcasm it's not clear enough
>>22813279
that grizzly looks like a bulldog
>>22813289
strayed away from r9k m8?
>>22813516
sushi is a bit overdone, otherwise I think it's good. adding a little more could be good though
>>22814637
I replied asking her where she had in mind. No reply. Wtf.
>>22814768
>say whatever comes to mind, don't think too much about it
I think Ill tell her her blue hair look is the most sophisticated blue hair look Ive ever seen.
>>22815020
You should have a picture of yourself that isnt a head shot, and doesnt have your dumb tongue hanging out.
>>22815020
You should keep the last one, definitely need to counterbalance all the tongue pics :p
>>22808982
My story? Made a profile, got nothing for weeks, finally got three likes and they were all porn ads.
Tinder sucks
>>22815055
>You should have a picture of yourself that isnt a head shot, and doesnt have your dumb tongue hanging out.
guess I should have included the second part of my bio
>>22815077
yeah, true. it doesn't really matter, but I just wasn't feeling as confident about that one as the others
I've actually hooked up using it and have added a few on ig/gotten a few numbers. Sometimes it just seems like conversations just abruptly end after like 2 volleys. Not even have gotten into the meat of conversation yet so to speak. Why does this happen so much? Also, any suggestions for my page?
>>22815140
I would put your pic of you in the beanie as your main pic
>>22815134
>guess I should have included the second part of my bio
That doesnt help.
>>22815152
Thanks, I'll def try that out.
>>22815134
True, you're a cute looking girl, you'll get just as many matches with or without the doggie pic.
>>22815020
Hey I'm >>22815140
Add me on snap?
>>22815129
Change your pics?
>>22815191
Nah, I stopped using it a year ago almost.
>>22815202
Are you using a different site? OkCupid is less superficial, gives you a chance to stand out by sounding awesome in your description.
>>22815176
oh no no, I was referring to the one below the main pic
>tfw doggo is 9 months now
>>22815185
maybe something else? I'm pretty private with my snapchat
>>22815235
Nah, I've more or less resigned to my fate as a fat shut in virgin
>>22815238 hmm well my ig and snap is gunsnmotos..
>>22808982
>upload 2 (at least I think so) fairly decent pictures of myself
>swipe literally everyone right just to see if anybody likes me until there's no more grills in a 40km radius (it sure was >300)
>no matches
nice meme, tinder.
Or I guess I just don't LOOK attractive and other things about me are attractive, because IRL I don't have any problems getting with girls.
>>22814768
>last two dates I got from tinder I went out without even asking what they do for a living and without they knowing that about me as well
>so, I'd say this is irrelevant
I think it would be much less irrelevant if you want to have sex with them though.
>>22815988
You have to wait for other people to swipe you too stupid.
>>22816052
that was a few months ago.
>>22815020
Delete all of your pics.
>>22816049
>I think it would be much less irrelevant if you want to have sex with them though.
Small talk is boring. If they want to fuck you, they'll fuck you.
Where do i go from here lads?
>>22816480
'paula? Paula what? Paul a hot chick? LOL'
>>22816533
at first I wanted to say, dont you dare write that.
I've read it like 3 times in my head now and it starts to get funny. But girls are lost easy. Pick your words wisely.
Some guy was asking in the last thread if anyone knew how to get rid of the pop-up in BlueStacks
Finally figured it out, all you have to do is set your location using the app built in gps (the thing on the bottom of the window)
>>22816568
take risks to shake discs, harry
>>22816480
being bold works for me most of the time, just say something like wanna go to a coffee shop/pub tomorrow night?
>>22816980
The last line seems a bit too cocky.
You guys are all autists. The one and fucking only thing to getting matches is, take a couple of good pictures. I used to have horrible lighted self taken images but since the day before yesterday, I've changed them to way better pictures which were taken by a female friend of mine in about 30min. (Just swap cloths etc.) I got 12 new matches in 2 days. Before, I had like 1 every couple of days. Just take a few good snaps with a professional camera, make sure that you have good NATURAL lighting and photoshop it a bit if you look super pale.
GL with finding waifus and husbandus.
>>22814849
quebec guy do you have kik?
>>22818103
I'm not Quebec guy, but I'm an anglo here for French. Got any advice for Tinder on here? Still learning French so I don't know what the fuck to say to matches in French haha.
>>22818114
try and ask if they read english okay and type to them in english and they can type in french or google translate and spell stuff wrong some french girls find that shit cute
>>22818119
>try and ask if they read english okay and type to them in english and they can type in french or google translate and spell stuff wrong some french girls find that shit cute
Thanks a lot mate. I'll give it a whirl once I recreate my account. If anyone has any other advice fire away.
> girl says 'and you seem interesting too!'
> I never said she was interesting
>>22818103
Quebec guy here, I do: catmixer
>>22817652
kek that fucking picture ahhahahahah
>>22818114
My french isn't perfect but I still manage to pick up french girls. If they're good at reading English, I'll tell them to write to me in french and me to them in English, and usually that works well.
>>22818119
>>22818114
Oh someone already suggested the same thing, ya that's what I do.
>>22818863
Nice, this thread is super relevant to me right now. I have secured a few Tinder dates, the most recent one being on Tuesday. We had excellent chemistry over Tinder and text but I think I went in with too little of a plan and too much assuming that we were going to be compatible IRL. Any advice on meeting up for the first time with the girl?
Oh fuck, Im a moron.
So this chick is a 'model' and we are talking about all kinds of cool stuff. So I say to her, 'Hey, so you are gorgeous, and pardon me if this a dumb question, but why do people pay you?'
She didnt reply. Totally just occurred to me that if she was a whore she could not say 'Oh yeah because I fuck photographers'.
And there would be nothing wrong with that! But you cant exactly be open about prostitution.
>>22818904
It depends on the girl, I had a tinder date on Monday that was a success. I can retell the whole story if you want, basically I was able to make her laugh and already knew a lot about stuff she was interested in.
>>22818898
Merci, je vais essayer la prochain fois! Bon soir
>>22818947
Hmm. I think I would like to hear a little about how you delved into common interests. In my case, I knew we had a lot in common (movies, shows, books) going into it based on our texting, but it didn't organically happen during the date.
>>22818985
It was easy with the girl I saw because I found her genuinely interesting and down to earth. Like we had a whole conversation about tinder and tropes in guy vs girl profiles.
If your common interests were TV shows, ask her what she thought of the season finale or fan theories like Jon not being really dead or just questions like that to get things going.
>>22818985
Basically if there's mutual attraction any conversation should feel organic.
>>22819074
Yeah...idk somehow we didn't get the ball rolling on any of those subjects.
>>22819098
There was mutual attraction before meeting up...if that makes sense? But it somehow fizzled out. Idk, dates are hard. I probably should have just invited her to my house rather than a dinner date.
>>22819118
Ya sometimes that could have worked, worst case she would have said she'd rather meet in public first, that's happened to me and it just means she wants to make sure you're not crazy first.
>>22819142
We met in public first...I realize now I could have just said we'll go to my place and hang after that if I am judged to be not a murderer rapist.
>Get girls number from Tinder
>Set up a date for tonight
>confirmed on Tuesday, made reservations and everything
>she never showed up
>called her
>no response
>text her
>no response
I'm really curious as to what she's going to tell me tomorrow
>>22819385
She probably won't talk to you again, desu. Unless she legitimately had an emergency or something and feels bad about bailing.
Guys who match with really attractive women: I have recently been matching with some 8's and 9's, maybe. I'm not sure if they are bots. Do really attractive profiles usually have a bio? Most of the ones I match with have no bio. Usually they unmatch after I send a message and sometimes after a day or two goes by without me sending a message. Are there bots that automatically unmatch?
This >>22819415
Why would you even expect her to respond?
I get a lot of matches, but very few people actually message me or respond to my messages.
>>22819432
You're cute! Keep trying? Where from?
>>22819432
All your tattoo pictures suck. Your last picture also gives away that you are fat, use better angles. If you want to show your fatness, you have to include heavy cleavage in that photo.
>>22819450
Thanks! From Portland.
I think I must be terrible at conversation or something.
>>22819460
It's intended to show my fat, so no one is shocked when they meet me. The intention is that I look like my pictures.
What's wrong with my tattoo pictures?
>>22819480
I'm personally biased against tattoos anyway, so I don't think they look good. It would be better if you added pictures of you where you could see your tattoos along with the rest of you. Then some guys would be curious about them and it would give them something to open with. When you zoom in on them like that it doesn't make anyone more attracted to you.
>>22819496
I get that. My tats aren't easily visible except the one on my wrist, so I don't have any pictures with them just visible in it. I might just take the pictures down, or just leave the wrist one?
>>22819415
>>22819422
she responded back to everything up to this point, I have other options it's just that I haven't been in this situation and I don't really do online dating.
>>22819598
>she responded back to everything up to this point,
Dog, if there is one thing I have learned about dating, its that women will literally say yes continuously with all kinds of sexual enthusiasm before fleeing and melting down like an insane person. No matter how good things are, you cant assume they wont just bail out at any given moment.
I dont get it, but its true.
>>22819432
>very few people respond
Its because
>obese
>2 year old son
>curse like a sailor
>tattoos
>short hair
>talking about drunkenness and vidya
It's the combination of all of these things, if you grew out your hair and got rid of the curse like a sailor and drunken vidya line you'd probably get better results. You seem more like a bro and somewhat of a woman child in your bio. If you want a bf material guy, use less tattoo pics and lose weight, if you're looking for casual sex it doesn't really matter.
>>22819432
Ya, too many tattoo pics, and the curse like a sailor line is a cliché and a big turn off, having a kid isn't a big deal especially since you say you're just look for fun and seeing where it goes.
>>22819656
Why would I get matches if they dislike any of that? Especially the short hair when it's literally my first pic, so even if they were just swiping based on my first pic, they know and like the short hair. Everything else is whatever, but the short hair thing makes absolutely no sense for people I've already matched with.
Also, as stated in my profile, I'm not looking for anything serious.
Edited. Better?
>>22819785
Getting better, I'd be surprised if you didn't start to get better results already.
>>22819576
I would recommend taking more pictures where you can see your wrist one along with the rest of you, and get rid of the other pictures.
>>22819721
Also a lot of guys just swipe right on anyone, but I agree, short hair is cute.
>>22819785
>>22819884
Yeah, thats better.
>>22819785
>no body pic
Just keep it real and show what you're working with ffs
>>22819607
>you can't assume they won't bail
I do that's why I always make sure I to waste minimum amounts of time. I'll wait about 15 - 30 minutes then go on about my business.
Final edit for now. Thanks for the feedback, guys :)
>>22820103
You'll get a lot more with that varied representation of your personality by extension of your appearance.
If I delete my account can I make a new one? Something is wrong with my app I think, the Super Like is crashing whenever I try to use it.
>>22820533
Did you try deleting and reinstalling the app?
Do you guys think they'll bring back moments?
My Tinder has been dead since they got rid of them, like girls have straight up stopped replying, ones that I've had decent conversations with.
>>22820646
what? I still get moments...
>>22820665
You don't have the update, then. Moments are gone.
>>22820665
Well, if you update your app, then moments are gone. I wonder if I can just install a previous
version.
http://techcrunch.com/2015/11/12/tinder-ditches-moments/
>Just yesterday, Tinder launched an update that adds employment/education information into the user’s profile as well as a revamped inbox, placing new matches in the top bar and current conversations in the lower part of the screen. With the inbox revamp, Moments, the app’s Snapchat-like photo-sharing tool, is retiring.
>>22820676
yea most people still have the old version, and you can't communicate at all with people with different versions.
>>22820685
>can't communicate with people with different versions
Ahh well that's annoying as fuck. I wonder who's fault that is. Now I've gotta find a way to load the old version.
How do you start a conversation? I've matched with someone but I have no fucking clue what to say.
A simple "Hi" also seems terrible
Worst part of the update is that "last active" is gone, so I can't tell who's ignoring me or just busy
I honestly have no idea how to hook up on tinder. every time i talk to a girl on there it ends up being a "more than friends" situation and they end up liking me but i cannot for the life of me find a girl who is only interested in casual sex or know how to bring it up without driving them away, so i usually never do
Literally just signed up for tinder less than a week ago. What's all this about a shitty update?
>>22822406
>On Tinder
>Not on for casual sex
Shit the bed. It's like those girls that say; "Not here for a casual relationship." All I think is yeah, and I read hentai to critique the artwork.
All advice is appreciated
>>22822406
I usually use combinations of lines posted in these threads. My last hookup went something like this:
>[insert genuine compliment]. How are you
>Good lol thanks haha
>Why are you on Tinder?
>just trying it out to see what its like. I want to talk to new people
>We should seriously fuck.
>haha na im good (You can tell she is down because she responded instead of unmatching or not responding)
>What kind of wine do you like?
>umm red haha why
>So you can drink some with me of course.
>lol maybe
>Give me your number then and "maybe" we can set it up
>haha ok its 984293843
Texted her immediately and asked when she was free the very first message. She said she is free Wednesday and Friday. How about Friday at 7? Okay haha. Additional conversation.
She came over and we talked for a while. Then I started escalating things and eventually we made out and then I led her to my bedroom. She came over again the next night because she was really close.
>>22823072
Also, you don't "bring up" hooking up or what you want or whatever. If you can get her to your place or you get to hers then you both know what's happening. Dont talk about it, just set up the meet in a way where you can smoothly lead her into your apartment. When I have dates I just tell them to come over and park at mine, and I will drive us wherever we are going. Then when we get back you can invite her to have some wine/coffee/tea with you. If you have gotten to that point and you were conversing normally on the date and everything then she will most likely say yes. She knew what was going to happen when you asked her to park at your place.
>>22823069
Delete your main and number 3. The main isn't a good picture of you and women will think the joker one is creepy. Make your current number 2 your main, it's better than the others. The other pics are okay but you should have a pic with more of you than your face.
>meet at restaurant
>eat and chat
>both having good time, she's laughing
>leave and drive to a nice spot
>we hop in the back and start cuddling
>start kissing
>goes to french kissing
>touch her boob

>says that I'm cool and that she likes me
>says we can hang out again sometime
>eventually drive her back to her car and leave
At first I was mad about this, this was on Monday, but now I think it's hysterical. She also texted me a few hours later saying she didn't want to be friends or hang out again, but I didn't care since I only knew her for like 50 minutes.
>>22823206
Sounds like she rejected you dude. Were you in the middle of nowhere? She probably thought she was about to get raped.
>>22823226
We were at some park.Because I thought I was going to get laid and didn't want to get caught or anything.
Had one date, just chatting and a single drink. She seemed like she planned on having only one. I managed to just be forward with her with the same message I sent to plenty others: Just out of relationship, into simply going out to have fun, or making an extended evening of it. Then I gave her my number and told her not to ask for dick pics bc I dont do that. That way, she may feel more inclined to connect via phone.
Yeah, I matched about 10 bots today, literally. 4 messaged at the same time with that virus jargon and included a link, then 2 more pairs both at the same time. wtf
REMINDERS:
>get a picture with a dog, even if it isnt yours
>get a picture of you out in the woods or in nature doing something
>get pictures with some friends or something, out and about
before any of this, make sure you dont look like garbage, /fa/ can help make sure you arent making terrible decisions on facial hair or glasses style or haircut.
do those things and your matches go WAY up. honestly, mostly because of the dog pic
>qt grill who works next door
>had two or three conversations but nothing serious, always had a nice smile for me tho
>one day match with her on Tinder
>ohshit.ogg
We've been dating for five weeks now, going pretty fucking well
I've been on Tinder for over two years now so nice to see it finally go beyond four fucking dates for once
>>22823383
also, try and standout a little from the hundreds of other generic white-males and showcase your hobbies/passions a little (no vidya, desu). I put up a few gnar pics of me surfing and now I match with most of my swipes. Girls who might not have otherwise swiped go "maybe he'll at least be kind of interesting" if your pics aren't all of you standing around.
>>22823367
I posted earlier in the thread about getting a bunch of really attractive matches who I weren't sure were bots or not. I got 17 matches that day. 3 were standard delayed message bots. 13 of them were unmatched the next day. I'm pretty sure it's because they got reported a bunch by other users and were removed. That's what I tell myself at least, lol.
Swipe on literally everyone and only get spam bots.
My friend actually banged a less than average chick off it though so there is actually a rare slut in there
I just came back to this, after a couple months of absence. Decided I'd give it a better shot, I never really went all in and tried to actually meet anyone. I'd like to try and improve my profile to expedite this process. Can I have some advice? Any is appreciated. Thanks.
>>22823069
Hi redlandsbro, gl
>>22824296
Your second picture is a great photo, it makes you look damn near like a model and definitely a lot better than your main. Not having the dog in that one is worth the tradeoff. I would put your current main third and your current second as your new main. Overall your pictures are good and your bio is fine too.
>>22823072
wow no wonder i'm fucking terrible with women they are insane liars playing an at an imaginary power struggle
if i can only get casual sex from people like that... i'd better learn to change
>>22824353
Thanks for the advice, I switched the two.
I'm wondering what people's impression of me is. Any tips?
>>22810779
Delete your tinder. I'll marry you or fuck you or whatever you want.
>>22824596
If I may, as a guy, you're all over the place. Shorten up your bio, very few days people even bother to read, and those that do just want the quick rundown. Don't be indecisive about your hobbies, either, keep it to a list of 3-5 max, and nothing like "oh but there's so much more", or, in your case, "vary varied". Yeah, no duh, you're a human being. We all have depth and tons and tons of interests, but your bio this isn't the place to tell all. Less is more, they appreciate brevity and mystery. You can tell them all about yourself when they're over at your house, coffee shop, bat, etc. and then you're already pretty close to where you wanted to be.
That's my take, anyway, my philosophy. Take in mind, too, everyone giving advice here is likely looking for some, too, like myself.
>>22824596
>no dog photo
cat photos do not count
>>22824596
Don make any changes. I would match with you in a heartbeat.
I just messaged one of my matches on Tinder and she said
"Hi! u look cute, this phone is dying, text me here XXX-XXX-XXX"
is she a bot or something? I just think it's a little odd because I'm not that attractive, my profile has only one picture of me, and I wrote practically nothing in my "about me" section. It's also weird because she wants me to text her on another phone.
>>22825101
That's a bot m8, sorry.
>>22825456
Yeah, that's what I figured. Oh well, I got a couple of other good matches though that are definitely legit. It would be nice if they responded to me though.
But what was that phone number? Was it like a number for an actual phone or what was it?
>>22824618
Haha thanks Anon, you made my day.
>>22825468
They're automated credit card scams. You will get a text and be given a link after "she" says she is hot and ready... just need you to sign up for this free site first. There are some cleverly designed bots out there.
>>22824454
This. Women and their stupid mind games annoy me so much. If they want to have sex, why don't they just fucking come out and say it?
>>22824296
Redlands?
>now that moments and last active is gone I can no longer tell who's busy or ignoring me
>can't even ask if anyone wants to talk
So this is terrible, Tinder needs to stop making terrible decisions or someone needs to make a new geographic based dating app.
>>22826294
>Implying Tinder has ever made a bad decision
The ap is the definition of 5 star
Just had my first hook-up with Tinder on Thursday night.
>Girl is a solid 7
>My opening line was fairly humdrum. She was an English major so I asked her, "What book feels like an old friend in your hands?
>We start an exchange that lasted about a week and a half.
>She asks, "Are you free tonight?"
>It's about 8pm right now
>I respond, "I am after work. Let's go to the sunflower field at night. We could even go to the cemetery."
>We meet at a frozen yogurt place and get in her car to the cemetery.
>Wander around the gravestones.
>Talk about our mutual contacts we shared on Tinder.
>Get into religion, films, and books since we are both humanities majors at our university.
>We sit down at a bench.
>I notice that during our talks, she starts getting closer and closer to me.
>Our legs between to touch each other.
>Neither move.
>Conversation begins to slow down
>We look at each other in the dark.
>Fucking go for it and kissed her
>We both start making out, surrounded by the dead in the freezing cold.
>Walk back to her car.
>We proceed to make out furiously in the back of her car.
>I reach my hand down to her underwear and she is soaking wet.
>One hand is playing with her clit, while the other is grabbing onto her hair so I can proceed to kiss her.
>After about 10 minutes of this she unzips my pants and sucks my dick.
I didn't come, but after a little bit we decided we were both tired and called it a night. We've been texting since so I hope to hook-up with her some more, maybe even fuck her. We'll see.
If you like someone on tinder, is there some average length of time it takes to know if they liked you back or just skipped over you? Or is it just if they haven't liked you back within a day you're shit outta luck?
>>22827791
From my experience, in most cases it tends to be the latter. I'm pretty sure there's some sort of algorithm which moves you closer to the "front" of their "swiping queue" as soon as you like them. Whenever I go off tinder for a couple of weeks, then come back on it and start swiping them all right, I get loads of matches, while if I'm using it daily, I swipe loads of chicks right and get few matches. Although there probably are exceptions to this.
What are your instant swipe rights?
>ugly / man jaw / butter face
>fat (no exceptions unless godtier face)
>"I have X amount of kids and they are the world to me!" (This is vast majority of tinder females)
>every skydiving actionshot after I've already seen 10 of them (woahhh you like skydiving??? So exciting, woooo!!!)
>multiple pics of girl with her besties and you can't even tell which one is the poster (protip: 85% of time it's the ugly one)
>"Not looking for hookups" (wtf are you doing on Tinder then??)
>black (personal preference)
>pics of them hugging their boyfriend (what are they thinking here?)
>making obnoxious quirky face (look at me cross my eyes and open my mouth and stick my tongue out like a wacky person!! LOOK!!)
>4 pics of their pets, last one is of them with their pet
Profiles that require further investigation before swiping left:
>lazy driver seat selfie
>good face but pic is taken super close up or from suspicious angle
>possible cute face but is wearing hat / biking helmet / full winter clothing / enough garments that she might as well be wearing a burka because all you can see is eyes to mouth
Updated the test in my profile.
Think i'll get any girls messaging me?
New to tinder would love some advice on my profile

>>22823463
>no vidya, desu

>4.5k mmr dota screenshot with caption "road to 5k" on tinder
>girl matches
>comes saying she's 3k
>then says I'm probably not even good
>add her on steam, win a few 1v1s mid while talking to her on mic
>ok, this is getting boring, you're bad, let's go for a date though
>got a date
also 3 times the girl was "that's dota, right? a lot of my friends play that" which led to things to talk about
>>22823072
the "why are you on tinder?" is usually pretty bad though
like, pretty much every girl is tired of being asked that
>>22815055
>I think Ill tell her her blue hair look is the most sophisticated blue hair look Ive ever seen
depends on your personality, what you will say after, etc
but I seriously think that is good, I say shit like that all the time
also, sad story of the day
>got a new number, message a match that I haven't talked to in a while giving her my new number
>she asks what I am doing today
>idk just woke up
>well, let's go grab some drinks tonight then after I leave work
>sure why not.jpg
>say I'll be around at 9pm then (when she leaves work)
>go out with friends, message her later asking where should we meet
>no reply
>get there at 9, call
>no answer
>sadfrog.jpg
I just went there anyway cause it's just one station from where I leave, so not that big of a deal, but still bad :\
>>22829008
Yes. In this case "No exceptions" means under no circumstances will I swipe right if the person is fat. "Unless" is a specified condition that, if exists, will render the "no exceptions" rule null. In an alternate logical phrasing, this could be read as "Do X action until Y condition is found to be true".
Do you not understand how either English or simple logic problems work? I suppose these concepts require at least a senior high school level of education and might be difficult for you to comprehend if you are still middle school or even junior high.
Why the fuck did they remove last active in the last update, now i can't tell if a girl is blowing me off or is just not online
I've been considering Tinder, but I really don't want to connect my real facebook page to it. If I made a new one for the sole purpose of Tinder, (with real pics/name and real stats/info) but didn't have any friends added to the account would that turn people off? Like would they think I'm a fake bot or something?
>>22829555
It doesn't post anything to your facebook so what are you worried about? The only people who see it are gonna be other people on Tinder
>>22829555
I would say don't bother. It's a waste of time. I would estimate at least 80% of the profiles are a variation of spam bots, single mothers, girls with boyfriends who are just looking for more friends ("not looking for hookups!), uggos and attention whores who only want more likes on their instagrams. 19% are fucking dopes who heard about tinder from latest viral marketing website or their bestie and make a profile for funsies. Even if you get a match from these types, it's not going to matter how good you look or how good of a conversationalist you are, they are only going to reply with one word responses and will never actually initiate conversation because they were never serious about being on Tinder in the first place. Only through extraordinary, mind numbing effort will you ever be able to actually meet one of these types. Finally the remaining 1% are the ones who are actually compatible (decent looking, not overflowing with kids, not insane) and you'll actually be able to strike up a conversation with these, but it's exceedingly rare. Better off just going on craigslist
Positive story time :)
>18 years old
>Never dated, know i'm gay but struggle to connect sexually with people, end up always just making friends
>Decide to try tinder for the first time
>Match a dude I think is cute, get a return
>Go on one date, he's the only guy I've ever messaged, completely hit it off
>Now dating properly, actually just loving life in a way I never thought I could.
I think for me it was just that a dating site removes the "Am I getting across I want to date you" part and makes it more about just connecting with people.
>gone through disastrous attempts at online relationships
>had my traditional drunken one night stand or two
>Tinder comes out
>oh hey, maybe I can try and pick up a guy like a normal dude instead
>match with nice looking shy-seeming guy
>we spend a couple weeks talking
>he is receptive as hell and seems really nice
>I offer to meet up, he is hesitant but I put it down to nerves
>eventually settles on a day
>the day before, wake up to a message
>the guy has a live-in partner ten years older than him, who is allowed to fuck other people but he is not
>never reply
>Bonus! About 6 months later out of nowhere recieve message from him while i'm drunk saying he misses me
>tell him to fuck off
That was the point at which I gave up with Tinder. Yes, one bad experience, blah blah blah, but a good chunk of the guys I see on there are either doing the pout or have no shirt on, and that aint my thing. It's nice for those who match through it, it just doesn't seem to work for me.
>>22828499
I hate it when people use photos that are focussed on personality and not looks. There's nothing wrong with using photos that show off how you like to be perceived e.g: staged shots, intersting photos, but Tinder is a fuckin' instant judgement service so anything less than 'here's me and how I look as honestly as possible' just bug me a little.
>>22828499
19/f, here's mine. off the top of my head at least
>pic of them with dead animal from hunting/camofag (this is very common where I live)
>group shot
>pic with another girl
>obese (chubby is fine)
>bald/shaved head
>"get sushi with me"
>ugly
>has a kid
>"I'm a traveler"
>pasty ass white guy with dreadlocks to be edgy
>John Green quote in bio
>pic looks extremely staged
>they're coving most/all of their face with helmets or glasses
>>22830176
I agree with all of those, good list. I will admit that I do keep my head shaved because miltary, but hey... can't win em all. Especially the hunting pics. I know there are SOME girls out there that are "I hunt too, tee hee!!!! xD" but I can't imagine the majority of women out there appreciate looking at a dead animal on a dating app.
I think the main thing I get out of tinder is just how disgusted by normie girls I am. I will go through 200 profiles and every girl looks almost exactly the same. Even if they are moderately good looking it gets somewhat disparaging to see an endless stream of clones.
>>22829822
Don't want people looking me up on FB and getting flooded with random friend requests. Friends who've used it in the past said that happens sometimes. Plus I still don't trust tinder not to advertise to all my friends that I'm on it lol. I'm new to it all and would rather test the waters and see for myself how it all works.
>>22829847
>better off with Craigslist
lmao not wanting a 50 year old dude lookin for a sugar baby or to get raped by the craigslist killer.
Plus I'm a grill so I think those problems either don't apply to me or are at least in fewer numbers.
Help would be appreciated!!

You don't want people to look you up on FB? That's great, because you don't have to. Eventually you'll notice those "people you may know" suggestions are starting to look familiar. Like maybe you've "swiped" on them before....?

Your golf swing looks like you're over-winding and rotating the clubface.
I have yet to get any replies after about 10-12 matches. Some of them just instantly un-match me if I send a message. The one "person" that did message me was a bot.
I tried terrible/funny pick-up lines.
I tried just saying Hey, what's up? or Hey, what do you think about [something relevant about their profile or our country].
>hurr durr, how about that weather
I tried complimenting them on their looks, or asking about a certain thing, like a tattoo or a piercing or whatever.

>i'm just looking for a friend or relationship, not a hook up.
>I think this is why conversations never go anywhere.
>most girls seem to want to just meet up and fuck but I'm not into that
Should I not even have a Tinder? I've been told it's mainly for hook ups but it's the app with the most girls so that's why I use it. All of the other dating apps are just full trailer trash.
Anyway, here is my profile. I get about 10 matches a week but none of them have moved to meeting in person.
>be last year
>visited Norway
>get a match with a 8/10 Scandinavian beauty
>we agree to mee up at a bar
>see her standing by the bar in jeans boots and a tight leather jacket
>she's easily 5'11, and im 5'8
>I get embarrassed because of Manlet status, but she just laughs and finds it cute
>after a night of drinking, she invites me back to her apartment
>made out, she blew me, I ate her out and fucked her in the ass
I wouldn't mind going back to Norway again.
/soc/ help me pur over this...
I'd like to add further pics to my tinder account, but apparently those pics can only be derived from my facebook account.
If i don't want my friends to see my uploading pics to my facebook (that I'll then use for my tinder), does the "only me" privacy setting actually prevent them from seeing those pics?
>>22831791
you don't know how to green text
back to reddit
despite what any girl will tell you tinder is an app for fucking, if a girl swipes right on you that would mean given the circumstances she would have sex with you. Girl's who say they don't hook up are lying simply. Your profile screams beta male,
>instagram filter selfies
>hand in pocket
>long girly hair
>indian
>pulling your shirt
honestly delete your tinder you'd be better off somewhere specific to your interests that doesnt rely on looks
>>22831878
I've never been to Reddit, mate.
Also, I'm not Indian and I wasn't pulling on my shirt, although it does look like I am.
>>22831868
That's actually a pretty good idea, anon. Just went through with that and it works.
I think I'm pretty garbo with Tinder. Guide me, /soc/. That first picture looks blurry in the screenshot, but it's not actually. I never really take pictures of myself.
Taking advice about getting my dog in a picture with me I ended up taking this after a struggle. I have no idea how to take decent pictures of myself and all my shirts are awful, how do I make myself look less weird?
what's your guys's opinion on listing your height in your bio? I've seen some opinions that are "never put your height regardless because it looks like your trying to use it to compensate for the shitty aspects of your life" but also "if you're X tall or over put it in your bio".
Also, do you guys actually put what you're looking for? I had "platonic friendships only (joking emoji)" but idk if it's already implied being on Tinder.
>>22832042
Apparently it's already implied. I've had multiple girls stop talking to me when I mentioned that I am looking for friends. There's no need to put that in your profile, girls will already assume you're DTF.
Also, don't put your height. It may discourage some girls and make them think that you're looking for a specific height as well and they may swipe left.
>>22832050
k thanks!
>>22831145
I don't understand lol sorry.
But yeah, IDK how easy it is for tinder users to just get to my facebook page or what but I don't want the whole tinder world to creep up on my real facebook and my real friends. I'd still put all the real information in my "Tinder facebook" Like location and junk, but I don't want everyone creepin on my real facebook until I can judge that they're not psycho, ya know? IDK I'm probably overly paranoid but, a grills gotta be a little cautious with online dating.
Another reason is I've had my official facebook since I was in like middle school, and I had a fat phase back in high school that there's still many pictures of. I've worked very hard to get to a good weight, not gonna let fat fuck 16 year old me sway any opinions. Just a lot of bad pics in general from the past decade I've had FB that don't represent me at all anymore now. I honestly should probably delete and start over, but I'm just too damn lazy to try and add all 100+ friends to a new account lol.

Do you mind if I answer in English (we mustn't anger the mods)...? Basically de now I've put a pretty flattering pic of myself, which must how I look just 1% of the time, and I've only gotten one match with it. Donc non je n'ai pas "beaucoup de filles" comme tu supposerais.

Par contre, je préviens qu'elle est conne ou extrêmement désintéressé ou distraite. Je sais que je ne suis pas intéressant aussi mais le niveau des platitudes qu'elle me balance.
>>22832623
this is horrible, you have to get her thinking about sex but not as a joke, you just indefinitely friendzoned yourself. when someone tries to gauge your weekend they only want to see if you are a loser or not, don't play their game.

But I'm not looking for a hook up. That's why I joke about it. If I don't joke about it (after she brings it up) then she'll expect me to actually hook up.

Tinder is an app for women. They have every advantage.

You're being melodramatic. Girls are replying with one word responses and not really trying because they aren't that attracted to you. Maybe physically, maybe because what you are saying is boring, or both. Improve yourself! That's the point for males on Tinder. Get rejected until it forces you to better yourself and not care about rejection any more.

Take out "Kidding hahaha." It reveals your insecurity. Switch your main and second picture.

Your second pic is alright but the others are boring and you are communicating sadness and low confidence. Your pics don't match the bravado in your bio. Take out the autistic face too.

You start a relationship by hooking up. Don't pretend to be a eunuch just because you want a relationship. It's okay to let her know you are sexually interested. You don't have to talk about it. Just do it with subtlety by getting her number, and setting up a date where you put yourself in a position to invite her into your place at the end. She knows what is happening and will go along with it if she is interested.
Welp that went south quickly, she either means she wont survive or she wont reply back, guess ill find out in 8 hours.

I was a shy dude, so I decided to download OKCupid (cuz you dont have to link facebook/instagram in).
I am a virgin, not a fat one, just a shy virgin, I've been told I've been pretty cute by a couple girls, some not so ugly, but I usually fuck it up. I was talking to this... bigger girl and was wondering how is your guyses experience with big girls. are they easier? will i get laid?
