12 Types Of Guys Every Girl Meets On Tinder
Thought Catalog

Tinder. Whether we use it for fun or we’re on there hopelessly swiping for our future husband, odds are every single college girl has used Tinder at some point or another. And contrary to what you may believe, the variety of guys isn’t very wide. In fact, after some time on Tinder, I’ve come to find that every guy on Tinder could fall into at least one of these following twelve categories…

1. Mr. Perfect

Mr. Perfect has a bio set to make you swoon, the cutest smile, and is all around very put together. Odds are he’s going to be the doctor or lawyer your parents always dreamed you’d end up with, and if using Super Likes wasn’t creepy, you’d be sure to send one his way.

2. “Hey…wanna cuddle? ;)”

If you haven’t been asked to “cuddle” with some guy off Tinder, you haven’t been using it long enough. There are so many guys who are quick to say they want a cuddle buddy or whatever, but the second you agree to it they’re making moves on you that are much more than just cuddling and watching The Office. Yikes.

3. The Straight-To-The-Point One

Instead of Mr. Cuddles, the Straight-To-The-Point Guy will message you something along the lines of “Sex?” within minutes of you two matching. Does this tactic every actually work?!

4. The Frat Guy

Mr. Pi Kappa Omega Lasagna is sure to be repping his letters in his bio and every picture he has. Mr. Frat Guy is also commonly the TV references guy, the pick up line guy, or Mr. Cuddles. No wonder so many frat guys are on Tinder looking for a date to formal.

5. Fish Guy

Odds are his anthem is a Toby Keith song and his bio also probably says MAGA. The Fish Guy typically only has one picture, one of him smiling, holding a fish.

6. The One Who Only Has Pictures of His Car or His Dog

Aren’t you supposed to be swiping right on pictures of the person? I mean, if I wanted to see dog and car pictures I’d just get on Instagram or Snapchat, not Tinder. Even though looks aren’t the most important thing, I do kind of want to see what you look like.

7. Mr. Pick-Up Line

“Hey baby, are you a Sharpie? Because you’re ultra fine.” Cringe. Any chance of you ever messaging Mr. Pick-Up Line are thrown out the window the second you receive something like that.

8. The Guy With The TV Show References

Every five swipes, I swear I come across some guy looking for the Pam to his Jim or the Leslie to his Ben. I get it. You like The Office and Parks and Rec. Don’t we all?

9. The Artsy Type

He’ll have high-quality photos of him looking like a model and you’ll be completely convinced a guy like him would never give you a chance. I mean, with 2.5k Instagram followers…you’ll begin to wonder why the Artsy Type even needs a Tinder. He’s pretty close to perfect.

10. The Guy in One of Your Classes

He’s usually pretty cute, kinda quiet, and sits halfway across the room but trust me, the minute you spot him on Tinder you’ll never forget it. Now do you swipe right or not? That’s the biggest question of them all.

11. The Friend of a Friend

This one is a little more awkward than The Guy in One of Your Classes, because you’ve had a couple conversations with the Friend of a Friend. If you’re one of the “I swipe right on everyone I know” types, then this one is a no brainer…otherwise, you’ll find yourself closing out of the app without swiping and hoping he never makes it to the top of the pile again. (But don’t worry, he will.)

12. Your Ex

This one tops the list of awkward. Depending on where you are in the breakup process, this one can also really sting. Whatever you do, do not swipe right on your ex. Ever.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
