I have had so many people suggest that I get on Tinder
I have a lot of friends who have found love through Tinder and other dating apps, so why couldn’t I? So, a friend of mine created a profile for me. As I was swiping across the many prospects, I realised I spansk brudar byrÃ¥ absolutely hated it. How was I to decide, based purely on a photo and five random lines that this would be someone I would like to talk to? It didn’t work out for me, but it did get me thinking. I have, on several occasions, dissed on the idea of arranged marriage, but, if you think about it, isn’t Tinder the Shaadi for hook-ups?
I mean, I have a friend who started off her relationship with a guy she never met, but bonded over some fantasy football game on Facebook
So, with Tinder out of the way, what other ways were there to meet people? How did people find other people? There is the good ol’ fashion ‘being-set-up-by-your-friends’ method. None of my friends seem to know anyone who is single or anyone who would be interested in me. Believe me, I have asked. I could pick up someone at a bar. I mean it did work for Meredith and Derek Shepherd, didn’t it? I don’t honestly have the guts to talk to a random person though. I get tongue-tied, awkward and weirdly silent around people I don’t know. I have a friend who met the love of her life at a wedding. So, maybe I just need to wait for one of my friends to get married, attend their wedding and hope for life to just work in my favour.
So, how else do I meet someone? You would think that with technology making it so much easier for people to talk and stay in touch, I should have this all figured out. I know what you are thinking– that I should probably take some tips from her. Oh, well.
There is obviously a lot I don’t know, but here is what I have figured out: there is no fool-proof method to make love last or relationships work. Read more about I have had so many people suggest that I get on Tinder …
