I've been working on this post for a while now. compiling my best (err worst) tinder tales.
you all heard this tinder tale earlier this week.
if you follow me on twitter (@sweetbef), then you know i've been using the dating app Tinder.

if you're not familiar with Tinder...here is a little synopsis...it's connected via your facebook. you like people clearly based on looks. you swipe left if you're not interested in their appearance and swipe right if you are. depending on my location, I would only get guys in a certain radius of me. if you both swipe righ,t then you're matched and from there your love can blossom.
i feel comfortable telling you all about my experiences because for some reason, it makes me feel less shame than eHarmony or Match.
here are some things I've encountered in my experiences...
1. Your boyfriend might be on Tinder.
I've had a picture come up atleast three times where it was someone I knew wasn't single...because I knew his girlfriend. Maybe the dudes are curious about what this app is and just forget to delete it, but I feel like that's 9 out of 10 times NOT the case. Ladies...check up on your man's smart phone apps.
2. Don't give out your phone number to a dude you've matched up with until you're absolutely certain he's not a freak.
I've exchanged numbers with several tinder cats and immediately regretted it. 1. "hey" is not an effective form of initial contact. 2. if I don't respond to your text and 5-10 minutes later you send another one...you need to learn restraint. because you've officially turned me off.
3. Dear Dudes of Tinder, don't ask to be Facebook friends and then follow up with "Did you add me on Facebook, yet?" Because I will cut you from my life.
4. I once had a dude ask me the following questions...
- When was your last great kiss?
- Tell me something most people don't know about you?
- What's your best feature?
- What color are your eyes?
These were all asked before I had even responded to the lame "hey" initiator.
I've only been on ONE date through this whole adventure. I keep holding out thinking I'll "meet" someone normal and cool. so my track record is like -85%. I'm not sure why I keep doing it.
I guess i'm an I'm an emotional cutter.

oh tinder...........i loved it and hated it and re-loved it again.
of I go to Chicago to see my Tinder Love.
Oh man I love this. I have been on OKCupid for a minute because I thought I would at least get some good stories to share on my blog. I went on one TERRIBLE date and blogged about it, and then I started dating a guy only to have him not pay for shit, not kiss me for like 8 dates, and then turn out to be the worst kisser of all time. Granted going on 8 dates with him was my own fault, but I thought for sure he'd turn out to be more normal. So basically what I am saying is that I'm probably going to torture myself on Tinder next.
next time I see your face in person can we play a tinder drinking game?? Please pretty please?
When I was on Tinder, I was matched with this guy I went to high school with. I knew he dated my friend's roommate in college, but I figured they broke up. So I sent a text to my friend and asked if her roommate was still dating him -- and she was! Then, months later, that friend got a Tinder account and saw he was STILL on Tinder! She tried to tell her roommate (but they graduated already and no longer lived together), but she didn't believe her. I switched to another dating site, and he was on that tone too! Anyway, they just got engaged last week.
