Seek Girl - Charming Girl Serial Number
Ene Vinson
Even if Pokmon Go seems to have surpassed it in download numbers, Tinder is still one of the most efficient methods to look for fresh meat. And since the app is all about making a good first impression on someone who's listlessly swiping through profiles while taking a shit or lying in bed with a hangover, it's safe to say a lot can go wrong with those first impressions.
What would make you want to talk to a guy?
A genuine good opening line. Not just like "Hi." More like, "What do you do?" I have a really descriptive profile, so it helps if they mention something I put in my bio. I play a lot of sports, so if they go "What kind of sports are you into?" then I'm like, this person took the time to actually read my bio. They genuinely want to find out about me, not like "hi, DTF?"
What would make you accept a first date?
If they initiate meeting up, and if they make a genuine plan. I really like it when people are like "Do you want to go to this place? I've heard it's really nice." I don't like it when people ask you out and then try to make you decide. If they don't know where to go, do they even want to meet up?
Did you end up meeting many people?
Yes. I come from Indonesia, and I am a Muslim. I met this guy during Ramadan who wanted to convert to Islam. We stayed together for a month or so. But, apart from him, it never went farther than a first date.
What makes you want to right swipe?
I don't like blond boys. Then, even if the person is not pretty, if they've got good, artsy pictures, I'm more likely to swipe right. I work in fashion and media so photos are important for me.
Anything that pisses you off?
I am Asian, so I hate it when the guys I matched with tell me things like "I've never been with an Asian before," or "I like the shape of your mouth." I don't like the fact that they insist on it, and they just want to tick Asian girl off their bucket list. I don't give a shit that you've never been with an Asian girl, mate.
VICE: When did you start using Tinder?
Margherita: I used it last year, for a few months. I wanted to meet new people, and I was curious to see how it worked. Then I got into a relationship, and I deleted it.
And how did it work for you?
Actually, it didn't work that well. I had tens of matches, but I went out with a girl only once. She was pretty weird but mostly boring. I ran away in the middle of the date.
What does a profile picture need to work for you?
Well, essentially I have to like her face and her attitude. I don't like selfies that are too sexy or provocative. I like girls who are not shy and are OK with their bodies. It's great if they feel like showing them off, but then it doesn't have to become too much. The line is often very, very thin.
Did you have a pickup line?
Nope, no pickup line. If I really liked someone, I'd write to them; otherwise I'd just wait to be approached. I'd try to become friends with the other person first. If they were fun to chat with, then we could go out for a beer.
VICE: Why did you download Tinder?
Lois: I was single, and it seemed like fun. It was mostly out of boredom, but also out of genuine curiosity after hearing all the success stories. But mostly just to have something to do while taking a dump.
Is there anything you do like about it?
I had a photo of myself as the McDonald's clown on there, and that got some funny reactions. One guy said, for example: "Nice McMuffins." I thought that was a good one.
Have you gotten any dates out of it yet?
Once, almost. That guy was pretty hot, but before the date he said, "I have to admit something: I did gain a bit of weight recently." And of course I'd heard the stories about guys who were a lot slimmer in their pictures than in real life, so I ended up turning him down.
What don't you like about Tinder?
Anyone with a smartphone can use it. I hated the fact that all these assholes think they can pick up chicks with lame pictures and status messages. You have to work at it, honey.
VICE: Emily, what have you used Tinder for so far?
Emily: I've been looking for girls but not for a relationship. I just wanted to meet new people and try to have a good time with them.
What are some of the worst things people have said to you on Tinder?
If you're a woman seeking women, there are a bunch of girls looking for a third party for a threesome. That's weird, but it has been the only negative thing.
Who do you swipe right for?
I guess the criteria are pretty obvious. Beauty is key, but so is style. If a girl is really hot but a bad dresser, I'll pass. But if I see a reasonably pretty girl in great clothes, that already tells me a lot about her. I don't really care about the interests people list.
What kind of poses make for the best photos?
If the girl is hot, it doesn't matter. If she's pulling a stupid face, but she's really cute, then I don't care. But I don't like body photos that don't show the face. Those people can just jog on, as far as I'm concerned. I hate that stuff. If they can't face the camera, it shows that they're insecure.
What was the worst first message anyone ever sent you?
I was living in Barcelona at the time. One woman asked me if I wanted to come round to hers, share a bottle of wine, and fuck on her last night in town. I tried to ask her some questions, but Tinder was so slow that everything only got through to her the next day. And I probably would have said yes, actually, if only I'd been able to find out a few more things about her. So I guess it was Tinder's fault, or the network's, not hers.
VICE: When did you first start using Tinder?
Karna: Oh God! I've been using it for like two years or something. It was definitely when it was still a new thing in Denmark. Maybe it's been three years.
Do you have a type?
I like guys who are chill. I like it when they have a funny bio. And if they're doing something fun in their photos. I don't like people who take themselves too seriously.
Is there a type, you would never go for?
Guys with nude photos. And too many selfies. I'm not into sports either, so I don't like the guys who post a lot of photos of that sort of stuff. It's also because I know, that we're not going to be a match.
im curious, i know its all sex and all but to a degree the person you are doing it with, do you find them attractive at all? cause my friend said to me that she seems to think that the guy is always 10 times hotter than you are and shes a pretty average girl. So do they actually care what you like?
Uh, well I can't speak from experience on this topic, but I would say the chances are very high that most FWB partnerships find each other attractive. Physical attraction tends to be the driver behind most of our sexual activity, so it stands to reason that is the origin of it.
Basically if you are in a FWB and not a relationship, there is a reason. I'd say that 99% of the time, one person thinks the other not relationship material. Why aren't they relationship material? It could be lots of things. Maybe they are cute but not hot.... maybe they are annoying... maybe their friends and family would not approve... maybe they are a bit of a bum... who knows?
As controversial as this may be... I also think that more often than not (but not always), it's the man who is "dating down" to be in this type of relationship. As a general rule, women have easier access to sex. So... if a girl is going after this and can pick from a number of men, why wouldn't she choose someone hot? I also think that women have a greater tendency to say things like "... but he just doesn't know me!" or "if I spend enough time with him and sleep with him, why wouldn't he eventually want to be with me??"
between the relationship between this guy and me, his defiantly in it for sex..this is my first friends with benefits...his f****n amazing and out of my league and i have the hots for him...! i dont want a relationship either so im good with that...i mean is it wrong that im still like what the hell? really me? cause girls go crazy over him.... all i want to do is brag this to my friends cause his soooo hot! is it wrong to react like this?
I don't think so to be honest! lol My friends with benefits is gorgous and I'm okay looking, not the best looking but certainly not hideous. Both my friends and his friends know what our "relationship" is. My friends are always like I can't believe your just setteling for a FWB with this guy and not trying to be more but honestly, while hes hot, in and out of bed, our personalities clash way too much and I just do not see us ever being a couple. We honestly get on each others nerves when we are together too long lol. So no I don't really think its odd.
It depends usually friends with benefits seem to be one of two situations, attracted to the person but nothing else is there, not attracted to the person but looks decent enough to have sex with. Im sure there are others but these are by far what I see the most.
I can only think of two FWB i had that they were better looking then me. All of the rest were good looking enough for me to sleep with. I think it's different for guys, or at least for me. I don't care what you look like per say as long as the sex is good. Furthermore the reason why we don't have a relationship is because I don't think their good looking enough. Sounds selfish but it's true.
Yeah that's usually how a FWB works, also it's more of a one night stand which evolves into a few months of sex which then she wants a relationship out of which your just not into. I couldn't really see having a FWB with an actual friend.
