RKO Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I've been over in NYC for a month now (from UK) and have perused tinder a little in this time. This is more of an opinion thread than anything else but I have no idea how you guys can use it here (not sure what it's like for women) it's a completely different vibe to how it is in the UK. Seems most profiles include every social media they have, if you match I found more or less they ask immediately to follow their Instagram. A lot of pictures are provocative, scantily clad or pretentious looking. Those that I did briefly chat with were quite clearly there for an ego boost,.no intention of dating at all. I honestly think if you're from there and struggling with dating in general etc get off tinder/bumble. It seems very posionous Link to comment
Billie28 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 What are you using tinder for? If you don’t want to chat to pretentious or scantily clad people then swipe left or delete if you have swiped right and don’t like what you see. It’s what you make of it, not what others want from it. Link to comment
Wiseman2 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Yeah, watch out for catfish, scammers, time-wasters, etc. Don't add anyone to your social media. Link to comment
kim42 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I live in Western Europe and stopped using Tinder some time ago, it's hard to have have some sort of conversation. I travel to London on a regular basis and the Tinder vibe is very different over there, people are more relaxed. If you are looking to meet new people, try Facebook expat groups or meetup groups.

It’s what you make of it, not what others want from it. I use it to chat to people and date. My personal experience of it over in New York has been horrific. I can see why people from the states on here really hate the app and frown upon it so much Link to comment
Gary Snyder Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Girls with Instagram are spammers. They are soliciting for attention or business. Just bypass those profiles or try another dating site. Link to comment
loyal Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Tinder is sketchy. If you are looking for a quality woman, you might try elsewhere. I say this because I am a woman who tried Tinder and quickly figured out that the men who use it expect one thing from the women...and it isn't quality. Link to comment
BeaTlesFan77 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Personally, I can't stand Tinder. Like everyone else mentioned I don't like all the scantily clad pictures or the alcohol party ones. Definitely not quality people. Link to comment
JaggerJim Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Tinder is a hook-up site in every country. Wake up and smell the coffee!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment
