About

A subreddit for you to share those miniature epiphanies you have that highlight the oddities within the familiar.
"Showerthought" is a loose term that applies to the types of thoughts you might have while carrying out a routine task like showering, driving, or daydreaming. At their best, Showerthoughts are universally relatable and find the amusing/interesting within the mundane.
Please be respectful of others' submissions. Rudeness is unacceptable.

Rules

  • All content must be original and unique.
    Submissions that match (or echo similar sentiments to) ideas offered by other people will be removed, regardless of whether or not those ideas have appeared on reddit. Blatant reposting and plagiarism may result in a ban.»
  • No shower "observations."
    A description of something in a literal shower (or bathroom) is not a showerthought. »
  • No jokes, puns, or wordplay. »
  • No "life pro-tips" or advice. »
  • No commentary on Reddit or its functions.
    Ideas for Reddit features should be posted in /r/IdeasForTheAdmins. »
  • No thoughts about politics, social justice, or religion. »
  • Don't be a jerk. »
Exceedingly nonsensical or common thoughts will be removed at the discretion of the moderation team, as will thoughts that are poorly written, overly vulgar, or obscene.
This subreddit is moderated for quality, which means we remove content that we deem to be low-quality, low-effort, nonsensical, or common/unoriginal. We do not "let the votes decide." We understand this type of policy is controversial and uncommon (especially for a default subreddit), but we believe it gives /r/Showerthoughts the best chance at maintaining quality.

Oh good, I was thinking about getting on Tinder, but Im glad I'm being snapped back to reality! I already very low self-esteem coupled with loneliness, I can't believe I almost fell for it! Stupid Tinder
Edit: incoming Eminem
[–]Ree81 504 points505 points506 points  (527 children)
Yah, basically same here. I have self-esteem though. Got 30 matches. Zero replies. Then I got discouraged and stopped.
[–]emanserua 465 points466 points467 points  (482 children)
Are you hitting them with the 'Hey'
if so, that's why
[–]MyOtherCarisaZaku 491 points492 points493 points  (371 children)
i like to come up with weird random questions to ask, like if they like burritos as much as I do. or what their favorite thai place is. or if they like ice skating. really i've tried just about anything I can think of to start a conversation. 3 girls out of like 85 have bothered talking to me. but why the fuck would you match with someone you have no interest in talking to?
[–]BucketOfTruthiness 922 points923 points924 points  (172 children)
To understand your market value.
[–]mrcrowley8 592 points593 points594 points  (83 children)
I've done this, click like as fast as I can until it runs out just to see who I'm matching with. Turns out fat chicks and old ladies are pretty into me.

[–]fullforce098 171 points172 points173 points  (42 children)
This happens to me too and I'm never interested. I feel bad about it, I know I'm probably being shallow or whatever but...I can't help that I'm not attracted to overweight girls, I'm sorry. You're personality may be awesome but if there's no physical attraction I can't see it lasting very long. They don't have to be super models, I don't mind a little weight, but if you're like 15 pounds heavier than me (5'10, 169 lbs) then I'm just not attracted to you and it'd be unfair to both of us to pretend otherwise.
This is what I tell myself so I can swipe without feeling like a fat shaming douche.

Never has it been a better time to get a definitive idea of one's relative attractiveness 👌
[–]scroopie-noopers 157 points158 points159 points  (14 children)
Not really. Girls are brutal. Ok cupid did a test and found that 80% of men were rated as "below average" in attractiveness by women. You have to be in the top 20% to just be considered "better than average". The same test for women, showed men rated 50% of the women above average.

Ah yes, the "judged by the baseless standards of those that mean absolutely nothing to you and you internalize it all as if it were true" value.
[–]WuSin 171 points172 points173 points  (54 children)
Like most say.. all openings don't seem to work so I tried something different, I just put in my profile "I don't message first but if I liked you, there is a reason for that, feel free to message me". I figured if a girl likes me enough to want to talk to me, she will just message me herself and I put that comment in there incase they are afraid to do, worked well.
I started getting a bunch of girls asking me why I don't message first, met 4 women from tinder because of it.
One of which is my current girlfriend :D 6months going strong :)
Extra pro dating tip: Just fucking ask her out, give her something to look forward to, take it out the realm of the internet, if you just keep chatting bullshit together online you will both die out because you are both just text on a phone and not something real.
[–]oh-thatguy 130 points131 points132 points  (3 children)

Stealing this idea, not giving you credit.
[–]Jay_Louis 115 points116 points117 points  (30 children)
Times like this I'm glad I'm 43 and dated in the pre-internet real world. You kids have no idea how much better it was then and how awful all of this sounds.
[–]admuh 91 points92 points93 points  (6 children)
We know precisely how awful this all sounds, we just have no choice haha
[–]DoesMatterHadLulz 27 points28 points29 points  (0 children)
Oh, we know how bad it is. It's a problem with how you approach relationships in general, I think...
People on Tinder are looking for a quick and easy shortcut to have their immediate romantic needs met. In my experience, they aren't looking to cultivate a real bond or friendship; you're just rapid-fire date compared to the last shitty date they had. You either supply them with what they're seeking, and you continue dating, or you never hear from them again. It's all very selfish, honestly. Eventually I've realized that the type of woman I'm looking for-- isn't going to have a Tinder account. And if you're naively searching for something real on Tinder, you're barking up the wrong tree. The wrongest of trees, really. Haha.
[–]Grambles89 22 points23 points24 points  (0 children)
I normally hit em with the "What's your favorite drink, and when are we getting it?"
It's worked about 7/10 times I've used it.
The other 3 just never reaponded....to anything.
[–]AllPraiseTheGitrog 47 points48 points49 points  (26 children)
Try "if you were a potato, what kind of potato would you be?"
[–]Brad_Clitt 119 points120 points121 points  (13 children)
You gotta hit em with the big guns, my guy. Name puns usually get a response, the cornier, the better. Her name is Maggie? Easy-hit her with the "What's your favorite food? Mine is Mag 'N Cheese."
Got a Lisa on your hands? Fire off a "I don't message a lot on here, but I'm hoping you'll give me at Lisa response"
Or, open with a really corny joke, but keep it clean. You can find them on r/dadjokes, and they're money.
Also, be really physically attractive. That helps too.
[–]DarthMarago 160 points161 points162 points  (4 children)
Rule #1: Be attractive.
Rule #2: Don't be unattractive.
[–]Zombs4Life 34 points35 points36 points  (4 children)
Also, be really physically attractive. That helps too.
You were going so great till that line.
[–]omegaskyplazaresort 25 points26 points27 points  (6 children)
Women on Tinder are judgemental as fuck. They want the best of the best profile that has matched her. It's all about gaming the picture game, and girls are good at that shit. It's really limited for what it can offer: good pictures and clever profile bio/conversations. If you are on top for both, then it should be no problem. If you don't, then you probably will do better in real life as long as you aren't handicapped by your own self-esteem.
[–]Necromancer4276 56 points57 points58 points  (8 children)
Because they're not looking for someone to talk to, they're looking for validation.
[–]badger81987 55 points56 points57 points  (43 children)
While I can definety understand that it's super boring, and if there's like 15 dudes, who all say "hey", they're in all likelyhood getting ignored; how do start a conversation with someone you don't know/know anything about? Legitimate question.
EDIT: I should specify I mean on Tinder and Tinder-like apps when you often have next to nothing but a city and a handful of emoji's or whatever. If someone actually has an accurately filled out profile it's usually not a problem, but in my experience, those are few and far between haha.
[–]saviorlito 45 points46 points47 points  (19 children)
I'm married now but I used to do online dating. I'd start with something like "I really enjoyed reading your profile and you seem like someone I'd like to get to know. Maybe we could chat here and go out to dinner or something if you feel comfortable." Got like a 60% response rate. But you find out most of the time they all have one or two word answers and don't really care to ask about you. Those are the chicks that want a free meal and/or some penis. The ones that engage with you are actually interested.

    Ask a totally out of left field question that catches thier attention. Lots of people won't go for it, but I get way more replies with something ridiculous than with a "hey" or "how's it going?" My go to if I can't think of something based on thier profile is, "who is your favorite little rascal, Alfalfa or Spanky?" (of course this a trick question because the correct answer is Buckwheat)
    [–]Ree81 26 points27 points28 points  (17 children)
    I definitely did not. I tried all kinds of openings, including ones I've read works well. I think Swedish society (50% singles) just reflects the app. The app may be popular, but it's not really pushing people into actual dates or relationships.
    [–]redditisretardedman 43 points44 points45 points  (10 children)
    What, Sweden has 50% singles? Like, all those Swedish hotties I'm dreaming of, every 2nd of them is flying solo?

    I was at work the other day and I saw a colleague of mine using a pen that had an eraser at the end of it that would actually perfectly erase whatever you write with the pen. I've never seen one of those before. I want one.
    [–]PlatinumStand 302 points303 points304 points  (27 children)
    I realize this is a joke comment, but my husband found one of those the other day, turns out that it can be erased by holding a flame to the paper, too! We felt like magicians...

    I don't understand the reason for the response. But I will go with it. Apparently, the blue side of the eraser was never meant for pens, but most people didn't realise it so they changed marketing strategies and just went with it.

    Because if it's girl-people then our theory is intact. If it's boy-people we must question everything we know about Tinder.

    Her okcupid profile is in her post history. Judging by that, I'd guess she's looking at guys out of her league. I guarantee she's getting swiped right, she just doesn't like the matches she gets.
    [–]PMmebassguitars 48 points49 points50 points  (6 children)
    See it all the time on the old FB feed. Girls who are bonifide 8s and 9s whining about how rejection sucks and it always happens to them. I'm thinking like who the fuck won't give you the time of day? Stop hitting on George Clooney.

    [–]yslk 1034 points1035 points1036 points  (101 children)
    And on the off chance you match a hotty, the optimum strategy is always to not try. That way you remain on the high of getting a match without subjecting to the risk that they'll ignore your message or they'll be an automated robot ready to send to you some dodgy link.
    EDIT: People taking this rather seriously, it was in jest folks. You can meet decent people on tinder, just optimize your photos and don't put too much thought into it. And never meet someone with only face pics.
    [–]ThenWhatDidYouExpect 605 points606 points607 points  (88 children)
    Also, I found that not trying too hard also increases success. Back in my Tinder days, it was the times I tried really hard that I failed, probably because it seemed fake. The times that I just said what was on my mind, without trying to impress, were the times I had the most success. I actually met my fiancée on Tinder, as strange as that sounds.
    I remember one girl I matched with, I was in a bad mood at the time, so I just opened up by ranting about how I thought Tinder was bullshit and vain, and was like window shopping for an SO, and she thought it was hilarious and we ranted about it back and forth to each other.
    Another girl I matched with, who was WAY better looking than I am, told me she had hundreds of matches so I better get to trying to impress her. Instead, I joked that I had a whole 10 matches, and that one other one had actually messaged me back too, for once. I was rolling in women. All two of them, I said, and that she is in fact the one auditioning for me. She thought it was funny, and gave me her number without even being asked for it.
    [–]GuyInARoom 649 points650 points651 points  (41 children)
    You did so many things right in that last scenario:
    1. Refusing to "play the game" and flipping the script made you stand out from the other guys competing for her affection.
    2. Doing so in a humorous manner probably made her smile/laugh.
    3. Doing so in a mildly self-deprecating manner made you likeable.
    4. And finally, even saying that there was one other girl who messaged you back increased your perceived value in her eyes, without coming across as bragging.
    [–]Mammal-k 331 points332 points333 points  (10 children)
    Wrong wrong wrong he's completely ruining the D.E.N.N.I.S. system!
    [–]eastwesterntribe 62 points63 points64 points  (3 children)
    No he's not! He's just demonstrating his value to her. That's the D in DENNIS.
    [–]ThenWhatDidYouExpect 9 points10 points11 points  (1 child)
    And it reinforces my first point, because I was just trying to have fun with it. I guarantee if I'd been obsessed with succeeding with this girl, and was trying too hard, I would've done none of those things right. It took months to realize that just relaxing, having fun, and not worrying about the outcome, actually makes me you more attractive than having anxiety about failing.
    [–]theconfuserx2 171 points172 points173 points  (16 children)
    Instead of going out to clubs to meet and have some fun with girls, NBA players are using Tinder to meet up with people and have one night stands. So basically if you want tons of Tinder success, just become an NBA player.
    [–]AnapleRed 127 points128 points129 points  (9 children)
    This is good to hear. I've been very worried with professional athletes getting any action at all.
    [–]Unknownentity7 42 points43 points44 points  (7 children)
    Road teams have actually been playing better in the last few years. There's a theory that one of the reasons for it is because Tinder made finding a hookup much faster so now players can get some action and still get a lot of sleep.
    [–]umopapsidn 22 points23 points24 points  (3 children)
    Sounds easier than developing a personality, how do I start?
    [–]Greymess 45 points46 points47 points  (5 children)
    I matched a girl, who was really attractive. She was also a good bit taller than me. I joked about how i'll give her a chance, even she though she was taller than me. She then asked multiple times, if i want to meet with her. Worked pretty good in that case.
    [–]PrancingPeach 22 points23 points24 points  (1 child)
    Another girl I matched with, who was WAY better looking than I am, told me she had hundreds of matches so I better get to trying to impress her.
    Am I the only one who's like incredibly turned off by this attitude? Like I'm not going to fucking grovel for someone's attention. I'm glad you managed to "win" her attention, but I think I probably would've unmatched her the moment she said something like that to me.
    [–]ThenWhatDidYouExpect 12 points13 points14 points  (0 children)
    I agree, it was an instant turn off, but at that point I just wanted to have fun with the conversation. I never ended up texting her, because I'd lost interest, but we did banter back and forth for a while, just having fun.
    [–]reddit809 19 points20 points21 points  (3 children)
    The times that I just said what was on my mind, without trying to impress, were the times I had the most success.
    This would be good advice, but it's counterintuitive. People that have little to no success with women are being themselves as it is. They are saying what's on their mind, it's just that they're thinking the wrong thing. I never tell people "just be yourself", I advise they try to be the best version of themselves possible, and to be that, they need to build confidence. Confidence is intoxicating to everyone, not just the opposite sex. If they don't know how to go about it, I tell them to fake it. That's how I did it when I was an overweight teenager that had no interest in losing weight. I faked it til I made it. I got so confident that I tilted towards arrogance at one point, and had to bring it down a notch, but I did. "Fake it til you make it. Own yourself, own the situation, treat everything like it has to impress YOU, but without being an asshole. You'll eventually learn to walk the fine line between being an asshole and being flirtatious with confidence.".
    Another girl I matched with, who was WAY better looking than I am, told me she had hundreds of matches so I better get to trying to impress her. Instead, I joked that I had a whole 10 matches, and that one other one had actually messaged me back too, for once. I was rolling in women. All two of them, I said, and that she is in fact the one auditioning for me. She thought it was funny, and gave me her number without even being asked for it.
    I hadn't even read this part, but this is it exactly. The thing is that folks do tend to treat it as if they'll never get another chance, or build a complex that they're not worth anyone else's time, but it takes putting yourself out there and trying different things. I equate it to fighting in a lot of ways. At first you might be afraid to get hurt, but eventually you know that getting punched won't kill you (most of the time, lol).

    I actually met my fiancée on Tinder, as strange as that sounds.
    So from 9.6-10, where are you on the hotness scale? /niceguy
    [–]ThenWhatDidYouExpect 28 points29 points30 points  (7 children)
    I've actually posted on /r/RateMe on a throwaway before, to get an idea of where I am on the scale. I was given mostly 6s and 7s, but the fiancée insists that I'm a 10, so that's sweet, even though I'm not.

    Two things to note on that.
    A) Some people have a style preference that might not be popular with the average person. My wife is mousey, and I'm a lumberjack type. I just happen to have a thing for bookish brunettes, she just happens to like fuzzy guys.
    B) Histocompatability baby! Humans do have pheromones, even if it's not as obviously used as in other species. And in genetically compatible people it makes them significantly more attracted to each other. Which is nice because it doesn't go away even when you get old and wrinkly.
    Glad you two are happy together! I don't think it's weird meeting on dating sites, not these days anyway. 20 years ago it would have been odd, but it's becoming increasingly more common. Which is good, technology isolates us a lot, so it's great it can be used to bring people together as well.

    You can be unattractive.
    You just need wealth, humor, and a big cock
    [–]WontGrovel 924 points925 points926 points  (152 children)
    No, for Tinder especially you kinda need to be attractive first. It's difficult to express wealth, humor and big cock through a selfie. Unless you just make your pic a dick pic? Will that get you banned?
    If you want wealth to carry you, you probably need to sign up for seekingarrangement.com and just flat out pay a girl to see you. (but they're not prostitutes! They promise!)

    Tinder is all about being attractive and coming off as a funny, laid back guy. If you're attractive, good, you got a head start. If you're not, let your personality come through via pictures and your bio and you should be fine.
    My buddy is dating a girl WAY out of his league (not only super hot, but a fucking MED STUDENT) who he met on Tinder. He ain't a looker either. I have hope.
    [–]WontGrovel 21 points22 points23 points  (4 children)
    bio
    haha, like anyone will even consider looking at that if you're not attractive first.
    My main problem is I'm late to the Tinder game. 42 y/o me probably isn't even in the filter of most females on Tinder.
    Let's not kid ourselves, your friend got lucky. Tinder is all about looks. If we all can just accept that, everyone can just get on with their lives.
    The only saving grace is probably that women as a whole have a wider range of what they find cute, I think. But their individual preferences are still rather narrow in that regard. They're going for a very particular look... even if that look is different between women. Your friend's girl probably thnks he's super cute even if most women don't.

    It's too honest. That's why dating works​, guys want to think someone's interested in them for how awesome they are, not just their bank account. Same with girls and how awesome they are, not just their holes.
    When you play up your wealth and success while dating, or on something like Tinder, you ARE hiring an escort. Just not honestly or directly. And that's okay, everybody's kink is a little different, needs a little bit different cover story. Some guys get into feet or bondage, others get hard for that white picket fence, the mortgage and the two and a half kids. Different strokes for different folks.

    On Tinder it is appearance before anything else for most people. If someone falls into the maybe category they will in most cases get an accept and then people will look closer if there is a match.
    Unattractive/ugly people will be discarded instantly by most users and as such will have very few matches.

    As a chick who avidly used the app for a few months and went on a few dates from it, I have to say I feel bad for the guys on there because when I checked out the female profiles just to see my competition, 99/100 had the most cliche, boring shit posted on their bio.

    [–]garrettholborn 80 points81 points82 points  (6 children)
    Hi there, I'm a developer in the same field as tinder. Tinder bots are created via their API, it would actually be fairly easy to put an end to tinder bots. Tinder has no incentive to get rid of the bots, as the bots are all female and increase the number of possible female profiles to swipe on for male users. The problem with all popular dating apps is that they monetize by charging the men. With tinder you need to pay for tinder plus if you want to swipe past the swipe limit, this is where the bots become mutually beneficial. If 20% of users are bots, a male on the app is 20% less likely to match with a real human and go on a date. That 20% increases the number of males who are willing to pay as they didn't find a date within their allotted number of daily swipes. Tinder IS NOT in the business of match making, every time two of their users start dating exclusively tinder loses a potential paying user (users are valued at $27). Tinder does not want you to go on dates, they only make money when you can't find a date.
    [–]Sm3agolol 9 points10 points11 points  (4 children)

    I was actually fairly surprised by the number of attractive women on Tinder. I'd say I swipe right 80% of the time. THough I don't get much love back. Eh, at least it's not a time sink like OKCupid for the same result. Seems like if there IS a match on Tinder I'm more likely to at least get a "Hey there" type message back. And only one bot so far. But for that one there was no doubt even before I swiped.

    I guess your success depends on a lot of factors, such as location, life status, and what you're looking for. I look at it as a convenient way to play the odds. If I'm just trying to find 1 person, there's a good chance that 1 in 10,000 will be a match. The trick is sifting though the bots, scammers, not being too creepy, and lowering your expectations... -_-

    First step. Be really really ridiculously good looking. A good way to find out is to see your reflection in a spoon while you're eating cereal. Secondly, you should wonder if there's ever anything more to life than being really really ridiculously good looking. Thirdly, you should mention you want to help other people rather than yourself, something like... "I want to help children who can't read good and want to learn how to do other things good too"

    All of you guys need to understand that like you, women have to go over hundreds of profiles... most of them are uninteresting to them. So they need to make an initial filter in a matter of milliseconds. If your picture doesn't look top notch and interesting, they wouldn't even bother checking you out more.
    Got a selfie in your bathroom? 50 milliseconds swipe left. Got unkempt frightening beard? Swipe left. In all your pictures you have sunglasses, don't show your face clearly? Why bother checking you out when there are hundreds of other men out there? Swipe left.
    Your pictures need to be amazing from all aspects. You need to be in a good settings(not near a dumbster), it needs to be well produced(helps to use a professional photographer) and you need to look good... take your good angle/right lighting/right clothings.
    A picture where you have made an effort to look amazing could be a big difference compared to some selfie in your pijamas.

    Something that attracted girls to me on tinder was my tattoos and my car. I had like two pictures of me on there and the rest of my car and tattoos and girls were messaging me first. I'm not saying go get a nice car or tattoos, but obviously they love materials on there. I actually found one girl that I really have a connection with and enjoy talking to and being around.

    I have been on a few dates from Tinder.
    One ended with us getting drunk and sleeping together - not that I'm one of those types, but that's what she was into and things just kind of naturally went that way.
    I will say that it's mostly a waste of time and you have to be extremely lucky to have anything significant come out of it. Relationships need some kind of foundation to build off of, and I don't think Tinder can connect people in a way that allows that.
    [–]tklane 1 point2 points3 points  (3 children)

    Honestly though if you are using the app, don't give up too early. It took lots of failures, rejections, and ignores until I found someone good for me and vice versa. It isn't all bad, you just have to dig through it, sometimes for months, to find the good ones.

    If you're hot, you're not going to be single. And if you become single, its not for long. Only time to bag a hot girl is when she is on the rebound. All other hot girls are in a relationship or on the rebound.
    So to have a hot girlfriend either means meeting her whilst you are both still young, (high school sweethearts) meeting a girl on the rebound or be the one she is cheating on her boyfriend with. There can be no other alternatives.
    Unless you are a hot girl who hates people altogether, which means you wont want a boyfriend and so you are no longer hot, but a weirdo.

    More like average looking girls, who have expectations that are way higher than what is actually mathematically correct. But I live on a college campus. The amount of thirsty dudes makes the average 4 out of 10, a 6 out of 10. But then 4 years of thotting, no exercising, no sleeping, and drinking puts heavy mileage on them where they are begging for attention and scream "fat shaming" when dudes don't want to touch them. Life is great. Men age like fine wine.

    I kinda suspect a lot of profiles are fake or for purposes other than dating. Here's how I filter them, it cuts down on my potential matches but makes me feel less like every woman in the world is rejecting me:
    • Any profile without a description is automatic left swipe. This filters out a LOT of bots and women who aren't taking it seriously/using Tinder to judge people/etc.
    • Any profile with Instagram or Snapchat information. These are clearly for marketing purposes.
    Try that. I bet there are only a handful of women not filtered by these criteria, because there are only a handful in your area actually using it for dating.

    Don't get discouraged, on a long enough timeline with enough swipes tinder could get a fire hydrant some trim. Be yourself, stick to some social norms like washing and grooming, and don't get discouraged or emotional if it doesn't work out after meeting. It doesn't feel good but it passes, get some ice cream or bacon that helps speed it up. It's so much a blessing to not work out on a first date rather than after a few weeks or months 'at least i'm not alone.' dating.

    Whenever online dating gets you down, just remember that it is the most superficial, unnatural way to "meet" new people that humanity has thus far devised, so don't be surprised that it fosters shallow interactions that are unsatisfying and often degrading. It is literally a marketplace for human beings, and the only reason we put up with it is because it is damn hard to meet new people as an adult, both in terms of finding the right avenues for doing so and making the time to explore them. Online dating is convenient, and that is all that it has going for it. We evaluate each other in that superficial marketplace as we would evaluate what model of car we would like to purchase next. How does it look? What kind of fuel economy does it get? Is it high maintenance? Will it depreciate quickly? Will it carry all my baggage? This is not how natural, satisfying relationships get started at all. Those involve real feelings that develop organically as you become more and more familiar with someone you find physically attractive enough (key word there being enough) to consider having sex with. With time, you come to appreciate that person for who and what they are and who and what you are able to be in relation to them, and a genuine bond forms between you. We call that love, and it often surprises us. Online dating tries to take away the surprise and transforms "love" into a shopping experience. What are you willing to sell yourself for? What can you afford to buy? No wonder so many people hate it.
    I would like to see a service that attempts to bridge the convenience of online dating with the real, low-pressure kind of interaction that leads to bonds forming. For example, imagine if there was a plugin that enabled you to see who else in your area, filtered by age, sex, relationship status, etc had viewed the same reddit postings as you in the last 24 hours. Imagine if you could then start a conversation with that person based on one of those postings. Or imagine a similar service but for Netflix or Hulu or Steam that would let you start a conversation with someone who is a fan of the same movies or TV series or video games. It could be a start. Then what if that service also functioned like a meetup site where people could arrange for in-person, public events for singles, like having a barbecue in the park or meeting up for a game of volleyball or starting a singles book club? Does anyone else think that would be better than what is currently out there?

      I felt the same way at first, until I kept reworking my profile. It helps to know what you want and make it clear on your profile. Use pics that are flattering and I'm sure you will gain matched and like every profile, if you match and dislike them, then just don't message. Tinder is eye candy and you have to sell your sweet parts.😁

      I dunno I've heard success stories. Friend of mine is not very good looking and has almost no self confidence. He found some HOT girl within 10 mins and met up with her at a bar, turns out she had a room upstairs. He went up, banged her, went home. Found out he had the clap a dew days later. Its more of a TIFU and success story wrapped into one. "Wrapped"... See what I did there?

      Tim Ferriss came up with an "exact science" to this problem. According to statistics, the top 3 things that attract women's attention on internet "hook-up" or dating websites are: 1. Shirtless picture 2. Picture with a pet. 3. Subtly looking away from the camera
      Ferriss combined all 3 in one picture and he got a massive positive response from the ladies. HOWEVER, there was another picture of him which got an even better response, and it was a picture of him at a spontaneous moment just being himself, and this picture did a little better than the one "backed up by statistics"... So I really do believe there is a big lesson to be learned from here, which is that it is ALWAYS BEST to be yourself and be in the moment than trying to find out what girls like because if there's something girls like more than a man with good attributes, is a truly independent man completely confident in what he stands for.

      Ironically, Porn is also a habit that gets you more and more away from the chance of having actual sex.
      The reason is you get addicted to sensory pleasure, and are less and less willing to take the steps necessary to get real sex (understanding women and meeting them).
      Porn is a literal fucking disease to humanity, it feeds the fucked up part of your brain and makes you more and more weak and unattractive to women.

      i hate that tinder for guys is depressing especially that depression is so prevalent already :(
      if it counts, there's some hope if you're willing to creatively display your sense of funnies. i met up guys who weren't that attractive but they displayed their sense of humor & independent thinking.
      example: he was an average looking white guy, his first photo was with him & friends but with kanye's face photoshopped over all of his friends faces and on his description said some kind of funny kanye reference. even though he wasn't traditionally attractive, you can't help but be attracted to how fun the guy is & it implies that he's an independent thinker (i.e. he doesn't really care how he comes off to you) & that's attractive. when i did meet with him he had like over 1k matches & you can tell he was having a ton of fun. again, not traditionally good looking.
      my current SO & i met on tinder (not the guy from above). He's the best partner i've ever had and i wanna spend the rest of my life loving him. again, what attracted me to him was how he displayed his personality by one of his photos that showed his lightheartedness & at the same time edge & nerdiness (i.e. visual display of his personality). he's not unattractive but not like model status either. to me, though, i find him the most attractive man ever. after i met him, i dropped all the other guys i was on 3+ dates with b/c he ended up being everything i wanted (& more).
      TL;DR there's hope for 'unattractive' guys by putting in a bit of effort to make your profile stand out by visually displaying your sense of humor slash personality. it goes a long way.

      1J is the prefix to a particular performance Toyota motor. It was the predecessor to the 2J(Z) found in a lot of Toyotas in the late 90s, most famously the 2JZGTE in the Toyota Supra.

      You know what guys. I use to use Tinder a lot. It wasn't until last month I came across this hot single that match with me. I was checking through here picture and was pleased. Needlessly to say, I contacted her an we decided to meet at a coffee joint. Everything was going good until another hot single i previously talked to pop up while out with the other woman. She looked at me crazy. I felt so disgusted. Here I am. Finding love on tinder, and I got depressed when she left. I couldn't talk to anybody after that.

        The only fun i have on Tinder is making bets with myself if the matches i contact first (99.9% of cases) won't reply or will unmatch me immediately. It seems "hi, what's up" or "hey, how are you" is more or less equal to "omg i'd t1tfook you like crazy" or "i'd to things to you, i wouldn't even do to animals" in most cases on there.

        I didn't think anyone around my age lived near me. Then my sister and I went to go see Jackass 3D in the theater and everyone our age was there. All taken, but really healthy-looking and smoking hot and fit. It was like they all gathered for one special day, and we'd wondered where they'd all come from.

        I've often said that gay men have it made with regards to hooking up...I mean it's basic human nature. If you have 2 dudes making the decision about whether or not a hookup is going to take place, it's going down a lot more often. For some reason, people call me homophobic for saying this, but it's the reality of basic human nature of the sexes.

        My philosophy is: If you can get it on the street, you won't use the app.
        In other words, if you want to have a hot girlfriend/boyfriend; chances are they're doing what hot people do and that's definitely not cruising Tinder.
        My opinion shouldn't count for shit cause I don't have a Facebook, ergo I don't have Tinder.

        Tinder and facebook really give women a false inflated ego. I'm speaking out my ass, so if you have something constructive to say, please chime in.
        I say it's false because there's a lot of girls on my list who could say something dumb and get 70+ likes on their facebook post. Are they funny? No. Are they smart? No. Are they important? No. However, they become a pseudo celebrity just because they're cute and take lots of pictures of themselves. Now, most girls will know all these random internet guys are just there to look at them, but there's still a strong percent who believe that they are truly something special and believe that all these random internet white knights aren't creepers, but really just... OK time to go, pooping time is over

        I'm honestly not very attractive (I'd say a solid 7 on my best days), overweight and I have medium sized man boobs. I'm fun though and I've got my shit together. so maybe that's the secret to my success. My profile is very boring.

        I think men and women use tinder differently.
        For dudes it's like "would I?" Swipe right.
        For women it's like "would I maybe?" Better check out all of his pics. Every one needs to pass the test. Then your profile. Is it empty? Pass. If not the content must be agreeable and appealing. Likes one thing I don't like? Pass.

        Stopped using tinder ages ago. It used to be alright and then the spam bots took over. My record was over 100 spam bots in a row. It's still funny because places like the chive used to make fun of people for using tinder as a bang app when that's the entire fucking point.

        Hey, OP, protip: If the girl is on tinder, she's NOT hot.
        Women have this special power, it's called the power of the pussy. This power ensures that if they even just simply walk into any establishment, especially one serving alcohol, that they are guaranteed SOME dick, of many different varieties, at little to no cost or work/effort needed.
        Men have the short hand of the stick in dating, meaning that we have to try and try and search and search and pay and pay and work and work for a woman, of any kind we can find, (bonus if she's pretty) to hopefully find someone that let's us stick our dick in them.
        What I'm saying is that the ugliest girl on earth will have 10,000 men line up just to have sex with them. The ugliest man on earth dies alone in a hole with no one beside him. Don't trust tinder.

        I have found most women my age group 22-28 either look for wealth or good looks, thats about it lol, especially on Tinder. The good looks for a "one night stand", the wealth for a potential partner to have children/that new purse in the future with. Women have the luxury of picking and choosing whatever they want. Most men do not. Unless you're filthy rich or earn decent money that provide stability I don't know if I would even recommend using Tinder at all. Even a girl below what is considered average looks in the western world can pick and choose among men. This is all understandable I guess, who wouldn't exploit that fact as a woman? Financial stability is important. Good looks can be very important aswell. Personality doesn't really get you anywhere on Tinder, like at all. Anyways, this is my experience from using it for 3.5 years.
        [–]bystander007 [score hidden]  (0 children)
        For guys, if your not "attractive" then it's nearly impossible to be a fuckboy. For girls, you could be 300 lbs, 50 yo, got 5 kids, no teeth, and still get laid within 5 minutes of using a dating site. Gay guys also have it easier. But just being an average straight male makes it impossible. Why?
        About 50/50 women are simply uninterested, the other half is fucking terrified the guy they meet will kill them. Why I never get angry for being ignored. If I was constantly harassed by lonely men I didn't put out for, I'd be extra fucking careful who I responded to as well.
        The problem is that when guys are turned down, they'll straight up threaten a girl's life for not wanting their dick. So girls go for the sure thing (fuckboys) and ignore the average guys. Simply because it's safer. And I get that, sucks for me, but it's no reason to get depressed or angry.
        [–]LordDongler -3 points-2 points-1 points  (0 children)
        On tinder, all that matters is how physically attractive you are.
        In real life, this is maybe 1/3 of the equation. The reason why a short ugly dude like me can find a smoking hot girl to be with
