We are extremely close to shutting down this thread for the same reasons the PUA thread was shut down. While some of the time this thread contains actual discussion with people asking help and people giving nice advice, it often gets derailed by rubbish that should not be here. The moderation team will be trying to steer this thread in a different direction from now on.
Posts of the following nature are banned: 1) ANYTHING regarding PUA. If your post contains the words 'alpha' or 'beta' or anything of that sort please don't hit post. 2) Stupid brags. You can tell us about your nice success stories with someone, but posts such as 'lol 50 Tinder matches' are a no-no. 3) Any misogynistic bullshit, including discussion about rape culture. 4) One night stands and random sex. These are basically brags that invariably devolve into gender role discussions and misogynistic comments.
Last chance, guys. This thread is for dating advice and sharing dating stories. While gender roles, sociocultural norms, and our biological imperative to reproduce are all tangentially related, these subjects are not the main purpose of the thread. Please AVOID these discussions. If you want to discuss them at length, go to PMs or start a blog. If you disagree with someone's ideologies, state that you disagree with them and why they won't work from a dating standpoint and move on. We will not tolerate any lengthy derailments that aren't directly about dating. |

Please assist me, friends. I am not an exceptionally perceptive man.

I got tinder like 2 days ago, haven't been really active. Only talked to one girl so far.
But, UUUHH! Some girls are such fucking specimens.

What does that mean? "Such fucking specimens"?

Seriously? I thought you meant the opposite (which is probably true too)... as in, some of the girls look so ugly that they were probably malformed as a lab experiment gone terribly wrong. Specimens. Or like some serious Gollum-esque girls.

When I was back in Stockholm I used to count the number of right swipes I did before I had to say no to a girl.
This is how Tinder is in Sweden. + Show Spoiler +

If that gif is legitimate, then I suddenly have a lot less respect for guys who complain that the Tinder girls are unattractive. Swedish girls are more beautiful than average (imo), but still...

I think most people who say that mean is that sometimes girls look better in pictures than in real life. That has not been my experience though, though I've only met three girls from tinder.

Everyone looks better in pictures than they do in real life. That's why once in a while I'll try to "accidentally" run into one of my ex-girlfriends to keep things in perspective. Can't get too nostalgic and fuck up the rest of my love life.

False. Some people look worse in pictures.

I know people that look really really bad in pictures that look Ok in real life, it may have something to do with the angle or their ankwardness idk. But a lot of girls specially look better than men on pictures because most of them take so much pics of themselves that they learn how to take pretty cool pictures. (I had a friend that was like fat and "ok" in the face, and in her pictures she looked super slim and extremely pretty, when she send a friend request on facebook I was like "WOAH! WHOS THAT GIRL!, then I saw it was her and I was like..."wow, she is a master photographer she should do this for a living).
Semi long post incoming.
Anyway I wanted to share a quick update to my previous story that you don't care about, but I love sharing this kind of things. Remember that girl that didn't answer my text, then she answered 4 days later then I didn't answer until the next day and then she didn't answer? Well, she didn't anser lol, but there was something else to our story that I didn't share here. Anyway, today I found this story she wrote that had an autograph with a little text that said that I was pretty cool and loved our conversations and that kind of stuff. So I said "you know man, fuck it, I don't want to say to myself that I didn't really try this" because reading that I noticed that I really liked her, so I went to whatapp and sent her a picture of that text saying "I found it this evening, I think it might bring you good memories"
She answered inmediatelly and the convo went something like
Girl:3xBlushingSmileyface, 3xcrying face. Phantom, what happened to our conversations?  Phantom:I guess they died, but there's a chance we can bring them back G:We killed them P:That's right. Girl, I'd love to see you again are you available tomorrow or would you prefer this thurdsday (taking note of Lemon's book xd) G:I would love it to, but how about wednesday? or tuesday? P:Well, wednesday I have a test, and tuesday I have an appointment with the doctor. G:I got a test tomorrow and thurday I have my tennis classes. P:Don't worry. Well then, if not it could be over the weekend. Take the time to think when you're available and we'll arrange something. G:Sure! Saturday would be nice to have a little more time. I would be fine even if it was in your car  P:Saturday would be great for me actually. Just confirm me during the week. I'll plan something good, no more just haing out all day in the car. G: I will I promise! Even the car would be fine for me. P: Yeah well, in all honestly the place isn't important, I like to be with you. But either way I'll plan something good. ...recieved.
Lol, but I don't care, it was a good way to end the conversation I think. We'll see how it goes. When she confirms I'll take a second note from Lemon's book and say the "Alright, meet me at x place at 1pm". I won't see her until 3 weeks apart which I'm afraid will possibly ruin the previous progress but it's alright. I just want to try, I'm feeling as confident as I've ever been in my life after a few quite great things happened to me this past week so I'll shoot for something great.

Been a long time since I asked anybody out. Asked a girl out for dinner in person, she told me "I'll tell you later". 1 down, n - 1 more to go.

That's awesome, congrats! If she's into tennis, then she's a keeper

I agree, but I wonder why she didn't straight up say "No thank you".
