1. I'm incredibly picky.

I swipe left so much that I eventually zone out. If you have a picture of your vehicle on your profile, left. If I can’t figure out who you are because all of your pictures are you in a group, left. If your bio sucks, left. If your bio is you telling me to “hit you up for a good time”, left.

2. I don't look through all of your pictures, at first.

You think that I would have learned by now that the first picture is usually a lie. If I’m into the first picture that pops up, I usually swipe right. If we match, that’s when I look through the rest of your pictures. I usually find myself saying, “I should’ve looked at all of them.” When that happens, I will end up unmatching you for “no reason.” But I never learn.

3. I let my friends take over sometimes.

It’s gotten to the point where I don’t really care what messages get sent, so I let my friends message for me. (Shout out to Zach). Most of the messages are insulting to the other party, so I end up apologizing on my friend’s behalf. But my matches don’t tend to like me after that. Oops.

4. I can't talk to more than one guy at once.

While I see this as an admirable quality, it kinda ruins the game. Tinder is all about exploring your options. However, too many options stresses me out. I tend to focus on one guy until said guy isn’t focusing on me anymore. At that point, it’s too late for me to talk to my other matches. So, it’s back to the swiping board.

5. I delete and reinstall it too much.

Whenever I get bored of Tinder, I’ll delete it. I’m usually fine for a while, but then I get bored again. So, I reinstall it. It has become an endless cycle. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve restarted my Tinder.

6. I pick the wrong guys to meet.

I know I'm not the only one guilty of this. Guys know how the tinder game works. They make you think that they're different, but when you start to actually like them, they cut you off and move on to the next girl. Some get what they want, others don't. That part just depends. The guys I pick see this as just a game, and they always end up winning. Am I self-sabotaging? Probably.

7. I GET SO TIRED OF THE GAME.

I was recently at a wedding between two people who met on Tinder. It really works for some people. However, I don’t think I’m one of those people. No matter how much I delete and reinstall it, it’s always the same. The guys on there never change. Don’t get me wrong, there are a few good ones every now and then. But, typically, a guy will give you attention until he’s started to talk to someone he likes more. That’s the name of the game. And the game gets really tiring for me, so I stop putting in effort.
