About a year ago I experienced my heart being broken for the first time ever. It was something I've never experienced before and it hit me hard. I did not know how to handle it, and I'll be honest I did not handle it very well. That is all in the past now.
Last year it seemed like Tinder was such a big deal. Almost everyone had one. Even some people who were in relationships seemed to be on Tinder. I always thought I would never download the app and use it. However, about a month after the breakup there I was downloading the app.
Wow, the people you meet and talk to on Tinder.. I don't think I have words for it. Some of those people are just, well, they are unique characters. As a girl on Tinder I was getting tones of "matches". I had my fair share of pick up lines, inappropriate messages, and sweet messages. I had the app for about two months and went on a fair amount of dates. Never did I think I would actually meet someone on there.
Then there was this guy. His name was Jason. He popped up and I saw we had a mutual friend and that he was currently attending the college that I originally started at. I swiped right. Soon after we became a match. We started talking very casually about how we knew the same person and about the college we had in common. Around Christmas we met and hangout. We told our parents that we actually met through school. He is roommates with a friend from high school, so our story was believable. Not many people actually know the truth about us.
Since then, we have pretty much talked daily. We had the longest snap chat streak either of us has ever had. We talk about such normal and innocent topics. We go out and do things such as getting food, going to movies, and other just fun things.
Here I am saying this, he has turned out to be one of my best friends. I can tell him anything without judgment. Wait, actually he does judge, but it's all jokes. We have inside jokes between us, such like how I'm always late for work. My parents love him, and I know that I can trust him with anything.
Who would of ever thought that I would of met this awesome guy on Tinder? Not me thats for sure! It's still hard to believe that Tinder brought this guy into my life. This guy who has turned out to be one of my best friends. This guy, Jason really has been such a blessing to my life.
So here is the truth behind our friendship. We are a guy and a girl who are best friends. We did not meet in college; we met on Tinder.
