For Christmas of 2014 (aka my first Christmas being single in four years) I decided to give myself a Tinder. I had always thought that the concept was a little weird, but with a new year approaching I thought it was time to step out of my comfort zone. After all, I had a heard of one or two people who had found true love forever over the app, so what was the worst that could happen? 1032 matches later, I found myself to be a semi different person, with different views on relationships and dating. Part of that certainly has to do with the interesting cast of characters I encountered on Tinder.
I decided to share my findings with my Facebook friends in an album I titled “Finding Prince Tinder,” which holds over a hundred screenshots of bizarre conversations and one-liners my princes would use to swoon me. With Valentine’s Day upon us, I thought it was important to share some experiences I’ve had with my not so significant others over the last year and a half. I admit these are pretty general categories, but it’s interesting to see how many guys fit them.
1. Prince “Deep and Philosophical"
2. Prince “Assumes You’ll be There in the Morning”
3. Prince “I thought he was sweet until…”
4. Prince “You Knew in High School Kinda”
5. Prince “Straight to the Point”
6. Prince "Tries Just Enough"
7. Prince “Worth Messaging First”
8. Prince “That Just Won’t Quit”
9. Prince "What...?"
10. Prince “That Gives You Options”
11. Prince "TMI"
12. Prince "Not Human"
13. Prince "Compliments Himself"
14. Prince “Insults His Way into Your Heart”
15. And of course who can forget Prince "Who Insults Women"
16. Prince “Murderer”
17. Prince “Bribes You with Food”
