Tell em. Who cares? I never understood this whole idea that some people have that everything has to be some crazy romantic off the walls event. Like women expecting guys to do every increasingly expensive and off the walls proposals and stuff. If any part of it should be off the chain and once in a lifetime it should be the wedding. The rest is just what ever. Even that though. There is zero wrong with a small gathering of the people that actually matter in your life vs essentially a huge family reunion containing people you barely see or know just to profess your unending love. That probably will end in divorce anyways based on statistics… 😂.
TLDR. If you meet on tinder just tell people so. Who cares? Lol
I am with ya.
I know one redneck who had that happen on Plenty of Fish (in the Dismal Swamp🙃).
One of those who one can’t help but like as an overall wearing asset client. And he does not care about a lot…and only few people know. Definitely didn’t want “his story” posted for any kind of benefit from the dating site.
“Met through her friend that she used to work with in same field yada…yada. He also is in the same area of work.”
Yeah that is one rachet site lol
I didn't meet him on tinder, but I did meet him on "fb dating" and tbh, if you find this true love,
Then why should you be embarrassed about ANY way of finding it?
It's a very rare opportunity to find.
I don't understand, it's a reflection of THEM, not you.
If you and your partner are happy, then you shouldn't care less about how you met!! 💯❤️
I agree but some people still despise online dating and would rather make up a story then say they met from there. So lets see how this poll comes out!
You would think lol
Love is like a gas bubble, it to will pass.
I already use tinders for hookups and my son already understands that and he's five. Met my ex on tinder too, broke up and found him again on tinder... bad times. Anyways, I'm not really looking for relationships anymore, men are just not worth it anymore, but if i was dating, I would tell the truth.

Why make something up? That would be a great story... that you rescued each other from the den of inequity called Tinder.
I would tell the truth. No point in lying. The ONLY person in my family who would have an issue with this is my mother. She is adamantly against online dating and cannot grasp that dating has changed. Even my grandmother is accepting of it, with me promising to take appropriate precautions.
However, the ONLY person who ever knows I am even dating before I am ready to make introductions is my best friend. We made a pact that we would be the first to know when each other is dating so we can ensure the other person is not being manipulated. It typically takes me 4 months to even tell family I am dating and the introductions usually do not happen until at least the 8-month mark, except for my best friend.
LOL some may feel dirty and compare tinder to a dirty bathroom in the bronx
LMAO probably. I use okcupid for online dating. I have not tried another site.
The way I view online dating is nothing more than an extended meeting ground, same as if I ran into a girl at church, the gym or the library. The rules of dating someone on the first date are the same in person or online.
First, meet in a neutral spot in public.
Second, have the first date.
Third, see where it goes from there.
Yeah I agree. I always tell my clients. ... online dating is the easiest game in town and it's also a shit show... its up to you to navigate it.
In my opinion. Lying just leads to more lies. You'll be forever building on that lie until it breaks, as with all lies.
It's way easier to face your shame upfront and move on from there. Once you make no effort to hide your actions (whatever they may be), not only do you learn and move on from it faster. You'll also realise people around you move on from it faster.
If you make a habit of not making it into a big deal, you'll humble yourself and others to be more honest about their choices in life. It'll be easier all around when we own our truths.
Met my wife on lavalife back when it was like the only one available. There wasn’t tinder or Facebook etc. I wasn’t ashamed we did attend the same Highschool she was two years younger.
I never really was one to worry what others think.
wow lavalife that brings back some memories.
I don’t see what’s wrong tinder is a dating app to find love… isn't IT?
yes but it has a bad rep
I'm going to make some crazy over the top story up.. just for the fun of it and later say yeah no it was tinder hahaha that would be me
You don't know if it the love of your life until you spend a life time with them. I have 45 years with the same person.
Yeah I am probably not waiting that long to find out.
Then, she not the love of your life. See how simple that was.
Fair enough man !
I'd be honest. To prove to people that you can meet your soulmate on Tinder, despite all of the horror stories
I'd tell the truth. Lies suck. But, it's a thing. If the relationship is legit then how you found it is of lesser importance.
I don't see the shame or point about making it up. Plus, hookups in this day and age is how most relationships start in general
I'd be honest, and I'd brag. Why? Because meeting the love of your life on tinder is logically impossible.
It's a hookup app. The character limit on tinder bios is so small, that even a perfect match would get swiped into the reject pile do to insufficient knowledge about her on her profile.
Why not telling the truth?
What I learned is that life is full of people giving random opinions, so what others thinks shall not be taken that seriously.
Met my boyfriend on there. Honestly haters will hate I guess...
I'm not gonna lie. I'd want them to see we beat the odds. People meet in different ways everyday. I heard of a couple who met through TikTok and got married. There shouldn't be shame. The Internet has had it's way of bringing people together.
Nah, I'd rather tell them the truth or not say it at all.
I'd totally tell them why would be ashamed of this? This is typically a woman thing. Women find online dating to be beneath them. As rule I WILL NOT message ANY woman who's profile says anything derogatory about online dating. Because I loathe people who put themselves above others. And if she's ALREADY being that negative. It's a safe bet it's NOT going to get any better.
That wouldn't happen cause I try to fuck every chick I match with on Tinder, they would never be seen as wife.
Never miss an opportunity to tell an embarrassing story. They make you feel alive.
I met the love of my life on Tinder, and now she lives in Texas with my cat.
I wouldn't admit to to it until you got engaged. Never hold your breathe on a tinder date.
I know it's a hypothetical question but finding someone off Tinder and marrying that person is just as likely me getting a 6-pack on a Big Mac and Pepsi diet.
