Maybe that’ll stop her asking about your love life (it won’t).

    The matchmaking feature is kind of cute. For some reason I thought Tinder was a hookup app and not a dating app. Has that changed or was I just always misinformed?

        My brother met his wife on it.

        Then his dumbass best man told everyone at the reception the exact date they first hooked up, which was interesting news to the people who knew when he officially stopped dating the girl before her.

      I’m in college (US) and it’s the hookup app. If you wanna meet people for 1 night stands then it’s the app. If you wanna date then you use bumble, hinge, or POF.
