Tinderella





Swipe left, swipe right, bam you have a match! Tinder is the new match.com for young adults, not everyone has one, and some that do have one are not proud to say they do. Tinder has become the new way of meeting people close to you - without actually meeting them! 



Yes, a little vain that you are deciding whether or not you like a person based on looks, so definitely not for everyone! The way the app works is you create a setting: male/female/both, distance preference, and age preference.  Once these settings are made the app will show you individuals who match your preferences, you then swipe right if you like what you see or swipe left if you don't. Tinder has also added new additions that you can go back on an accidental left swipe and set for different locations, but you have to pay a monthly fee for these additions. 

I have heard stories of people sitting at a bar and someone coming up to them saying "aren't you that guy from tinder?!" Great conversation starter! Meet neighbors that you didn't even know you had! Tinder is slowly but surely taking over the millennials when it comes to meeting new people. 

Take a look at what your Tinder experience can look like:

  1. This is very interesting. It's so many guys I've found attractive that are psychopaths or just pain in the asses! LOL I don't know how long this will last if the app is based off looks alone.

  2. When I hear people talk about Tinder, I have to be honest it kind of makes me laughs. I don't understand how people feel they're going to find a good, healthy relationship when they're starting it based just on looks and nothing else. I understand it's fun to meet new people, but it makes me leery to meet a weirdo. My brother has tried using Tinder, and the couple of relationships he's had have not turned out well. I have to say at least with Match.com you have a profile to learn a little more about the person. It makes someone a little less shallow since you're able to base your decision off of more than a picture.
