Tinder. A blessing and a curse. This is an app in which people find other people to talk to, date, sleep with, or other various activities. Sounds easy, right? This app makes you sign in through your Facebook in order to prove you’re “real”. You download the app. Throw some words on there. Pick some pictures you like and start swiping!

How it works: The location services on your phone find people within a certain mile radius of you. Their photos show up on your phone. You like them, you swipe right. You don’t like them you swipe left. The only information you are given is there first name (from Facebook) their age, a few photos, and whatever words they have chosen to write at the bottom of their little “profile”. Once both people “swipe right” to each other, they are able to message each other within the app itself. Simple right? Oh it is. Some people can spend HOURS swiping looking for someone they want to talk to. This app is also SHALLOW. I mean, I’m not going to lie. I pick the good looking dudes. Why? Because they are good looking, duh. I’m not going to swipe right to a guy I don’t find attractive because I’m sure he has a stellar personality.

Some of these profiles are hilarious. You have the classic dude with his shirt off. Dude with a puppy. Dude with a kitten. Dude petting a tiger. Dude showing you a picture of a fish. What is it with men taking pictures holding up fish?! I just don’t get it. Cool fish bro.

Sometimes, guys only put up group pictures. And then ONE picture of themselves at the very end. My girlfriends and I have gotten so good at picking out which guy he actually is. Odds are, he’s the most unattractive one. Why would you put up pictures of you and your friends when you know they are better looking?! You’re bringing it on yourself. Also, if he has all selfies DO NOT swipe right. It is a trap and he is a psychopath.

There will be many other blogs following this one that have to do with men I’ve (and friends) met off tinder. I just felt the need to explain it all to you so you know how shallow both parties are when the story is being told. Maybe not shallow, but forgiving? It’s a gamble. Again, Tinder is a blessing and a curse.
