Discussion
A total game-changer. A couple of female friends use it: one is late 20s and the other is 40. The late 20s friend had 900+ matches and has met quite a few guys from it, even literally message someone, 20 mins later at her door!
My 40 year old friend has a slightly different experience. She's meeting guys but none tick her interest except one guy who is an international model. No surprises that he's very casual in his approach
I'm glad that I've been in a relationship for a number of years because on a night out I used my friends account to check out what sort of women are on Tinder. Flicked left (not interested) through 50 women in about a minute and a half.
That said, you have to be a total douche or display a complete lack of social graces not to hook up. Cuts straight to the chase.

Nope, you can set it as non visible on FB
On topic, i must be using it wrong, spent a few weeks swiping aggressively and all it got me was some mild kissing with a married woman
Really? If your not fussy I think its a piece of piss to get your end away.On topic, i must be using it wrong, spent a few weeks swiping aggressively and all it got me was some mild kissing with a married woman
When your fussy though, its not so good, especially for the self esteem when the stupid f

Top tip, swipe right on all but the absolute horrors. You can ignore any messages from any you dont like and having the messages themselves rolling in is an acceptable self esteem booster. Use the burner girls as an opportunity to practice your lines if you need it.
Also the same rules as any dating site apply in respect to messages. Just expect that your comms are going to be ignored because the women will be getting way more messages than you think they are, dont be surprised if they never even get to yours. Its a sellers market.

Even more of a 'Crap Shoot' when it comes to an interesting and exotic array of venereal diseases I should imagine!
Any woman who's going to invite a bloke she's not even met around for a shag probably isn't doing it for the first time, and the many blokes that have been there before probably aren't too fresh either!
Who cares? Glove up and dont put your mouth or implement anywhere you wouldnt put your fingers Any woman who's going to invite a bloke she's not even met around for a shag probably isn't doing it for the first time, and the many blokes that have been there before probably aren't too fresh either!

I'd actually just suggest a week of frantic right swiping without any vetting. It'll take around 60-90 seconds to hit your cap, and you can do it twice a day. After a week of that you'll have built up quite a collection of matches. Then as suggested above you can either delete who you don't like, take the ego boost from those that do message you or work on your lines!

I was shagging this girl off Twitter before (she was nothing special) and she was showing me the sheer volume of matches and messages she was getting. It was frightening, I'd say she was getting 15+ matches/messages to my one 
I used to do that. Constant swiping twice a day. Never got a match.
Maybe age related as I'm in my 50s. A mate in his 30s uses it for somewhere to stay as he works all over the UK. Something like a 90% success rate.
I gave up and resigned myself to playing Words with Friends with mates and strangers worldwide.
Then through that I met the most beautiful girl. Can't believe it to be honest.

king bhes don't bother to reply after matching Ive stopped now for a bit, but i wasnt trying to just get my knob some action anyway, im not that hard up yet
I met my current girlfriend on it, we both have very different opinions about it though.
I thought it was brilliant as we started talking after I had only been on it for 2 days. We got along so well that I lost interest in talking to anyone else, we met 9 days later, got along even better in person and we moved in together 2 weeks ago. I did start talking to 3 other girls before, one wouldn't stop talking about how her ex had abandoned her with his child and another wouldn't do anything but reply with one word answers, making it impossible to have any kind of conversation. Of course you do get matches with girls that turn out to be bots but they're easily spotted once you message them.
My girlfriend was on it for a year and met and talked to some very strange people. The standard dick pic was a weekly thing. "Hey we matched, here's a picture of my dick". Some seemed lovely when chatting but turned out to be complete assholes when seeing them on the first date, some wanted to talk about nothing but their sexual fantasies, including one guy who wanted to be fked by her whilst she wore a strap-on but the most common thing she got was guys introducing themselves to her by saying they wanted the "black experience". Or course all the above would result in a block.
It's become a bit of a joke in our relationship that I think it's great and met the perfect partner after only 2 days, whilst she had to suffer through it for a year and was almost at the point of giving up on Tinder.
