Hi Greek Lawyer girl, I haven't figured out if you're going to be the nicest girl on my naughty list, or the naughtiest girl on my nice list.
...but either way I want you to help me unload my sack.

Job jobbed.
Na... would be cheeky enough if they followed up saying that there is another list that only a chosen few get onto.

If and when that was followed up since most people can't just leave it there, simply say.

My contact list...

Leave it there... job done in 3 simple text messages to get her number, being cheeky, bit cheesy and showing some confidence.
That.

And, seriously, lose the hair and the specs. I made the move from milk bottle bottoms (-14 eyes) to contact lenses and it made the world of difference to my chances. It made me realise my nose is huge but it beats being speccy. And the hair... get it gone. I know you like it but a bloke should have shorter hair than his mrs. Once you've bagged her and you know she likes you for you, then consider growing it back. Not to mention you'll probably get less attention from men from behind.

You can be a fan of the "glastonbury chic" or whatever it is you called it, but you don't have to cut all your cloth accordingly. I love baroque-era masquerade balls, but I don't go everywhere dressed like Hugh Laurie from Blackadder 3.

You're young enough to be able to get away with hair experiments. Try a flat top or something else equally 80's and "in".

At the very least you can pretend to be this guy...

Ok, so I sent to her:

"Hi [x], no duckface or yolo in your profile means you're winning tinder today! So, which half of you is from Greece? :P And where is the other half from?"

This was half an hour ago. Just checked back and she's unmatched me irked



Anyway, my profile currently reads:

"Chemistry student at Liverpool Uni, Also a pilot, racing driver, musician and gamer. Generally all-round awesome, but then I would say that wouldn't I? wink "

Profile pic is the most normal looking on I can find, which is:

Your going backwards with that bio...

You are seriously telling me that you have no other pictures of yourself at all anywhere?

No pictures of you on holidays, nothing at all? Ever been to a black tie do, etc? That would be a perfect picture.

Its ok to have one of the car/plane, etc.... you just don't need to have them all.

Country Casual. Give them Country Casual.

It all reads a bit try-hard metroxesual. Unless you are a top echelon driver or pilot then let's face it it's not really going to impress anyone on a superficial level. Your picture says 'I am a normal guy' your text says 'I want people to think I am awesome'. I am sure you are in your own way but people are going to look at your pic and your text and just think timewaster.

Here we go CC, it's not rocket science (if it was you probably would be doing a lot better). Find a angle, a certain thing to comment on and go with it. Cheesy works if you can link it to a photo of her profile but if not don't bother.

Ok, so if saying "hi, how's it going" is too stale (tried it on 3 other matches and got no reply), but telling a cheesy joke to break the ice is too infantile, then what the hell am I supposed to say?!
tell them you know me.

I've just checked back on Tinder after a few days without and found a few nice looking matches. I really want to try out some of those lines.

You need to crop the bottom half off that photo -

1) your holding what looks like a can of cheap cider,
2) it looks like the bloke standing next to you has his hand down your trousers.

Anyway, how it it go with the hooker, did you need the full £100 or was 30 minutes long enough?

Signed up to Match. With Quidco (thanks to who posted that!). Only gong to cost £5/£10 for the six months.

Completed my profile and reading profiles and trying to find something to talk about. Not had too much time to have a look at the moment.

Sadly that does look slightly like a bloke is wking you off while you drink a pie-key tin of cider.
