Tinder: A thread.
So I wasn’t getting many matches and I assumed (my brain assumed) that it was because I’d put full body photos on where you can size I’m not a tiny human but fast forward to a message I got from a bloke which changed everything

The message read “I just wanted to say I think you’re stunning but I don’t date tories”. Now this caused confusion as I most definitely am NOT a Tory. So I went onto my profile to see what had gone so wrong. 2/6
My opening line read “passionate conservationist”. I immediately saw the problem. People clearly can’t read and have been reading my opening like as “passionate conservative”. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥲" title="Smiling face with tear" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with tear">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😐" title="Neutrales Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Neutrales Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😐" title="Neutrales Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Neutrales Gesicht"> 3/6
So for months I’ve been wallowing in self pity when in fact people on tinder just can’t seem to distinguish between two words that look similar https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥲" title="Smiling face with tear" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with tear">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😅" title="Lächelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß" aria-label="Emoji: Lächelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß"> 4/6
So before bed last night I put a disclaimer to point out that I am a CONSERVATIONIST not a member of the Tory party - woke up to a ton of matches (that I’ll probably ignore of course but still https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤣" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen">) 5/6
So the moral of the story is probably give up on tinder but at least I solved the mystery and can continue my bunny hugging adventure. 6/6
