Dating Rules For Tinder
Being one of the biggest online dating platforms, we take a look at how you should be behaving when using Tinder to enter the dating scene. Here are some tips that will hopefully direct you away from committing online carnal sins.
Once you spend a little time figuring out exactly how Tinder works like we have you can start to put together an approach that will get results consistently. Like any other app out there it takes some serious usage before you really understand what works and what doesn’t.
Fortunately, we’re here to help. After a lot of trial and error we’ve got a handful of great tips that have been working really well, especially for newer users. If you haven’t had the kind of success with women that you want give these a shot first.
Bruv, Dont make shortcuts with stupid gramar an spellin errors: Be honest with yourself, do you want the other person to sound like a dictionary falling down the stairs? It’s an easy turn off and can be left until you’re more familiar with each other (or just NEVER).
Multiple personality disorder: Try to portray yourself genuinely through all of your social media profiles. It’s understandable that LinkedIn will show the ‘professional’ side to you while Facebook portrays more of your casual self but try not to overdo it to extremes. You want to keep the same voice and humour that mimics you in the real world.
Procrastination: Once you’ve got the ball rolling in email conversation and you know you like the other person try and get yourself out on that date. The point of online dating through Tinder is to eventually date in reality. Nerves may be dominant but keep your mind on the potential first date butterflies.
Rancid rejection: It’s okay to feel slightly hurt when being rejected but remember the person didn’t actually know you that well and there are plenty of ripe cherries on Tinder to pick from.
Sending a message saying ‘you’re butters anyway’ is not the way to cope with it, simply move on.
Selfie sellout: Pictures of your overly tanned and greased six pack or filtered pout with the camera covering half of your face may not be the best conversation starters. It’s more inviting when you’re doing things in your profile image, whether it’s horse-riding or drunkenly hugging the shit out of your best friends. Show some personality on your Tinder profile.
Uphold tradition: The best way to start conversation is by discussing your interests
and going from there. Not only does it give you the chance to talk about similar things but it also allows you to get to know each other. Remember all the things you discussed so you can continue your debate over which Austin Powers film really was the funniest.
Taken: When you have actually started dating and stepped into the world of relationships it’s recommended you delete your profile. If you want to keep it around for a rainy day (no cheating) then at least disable it to avoid the suspicious questions.
Above all else, don’t forget to enjoy yourself. If the chemistry isn’t there romantically it doesn’t mean you can’t be friends. Apply the right amount of Tinder etiquette to your profile and you could find yourself with a great date.
