I love Tinder, even though I can't use it, being taken. But I really love playing with my friends Tinder and sometimes their profiles. Sometimes they come to me, complaining how they don't seem to attract the right men. So they hand me their phone to see if I can make a difference, something I do, but not to their liking.
I change a few things, their photos, their real hobbies and interests and put a bit more as I like to call it, UMPH into their profile. And I start swiping. I watch their faces change dramatically as their phone starts to go off with swipes back and messages coming through, "What the hell have you done!?!" they ask as they snatch the phone back.
Needless to say, they are horrified at the image I have made as their profile picture and even more horrified when they see that I have made notes like "Will eat a kebab if you stick it through my window".
The men are sending messages loving that for one, the image and details are ideal ice-breakers, and two, what they see are the real her.
This part they tend to get over, however, it's the swiping they seem to hate. I was swiping right for most of the men coming through, this was something they did not approve. I justified this by saying "you need to expand your horizons".
So now I'm banned from their Tinder. They did chat with a couple of the men that came through, but claimed later that there was something wrong with them. One didn't know the different names of pastas and the other appeared to be going bald or would later down the track.
