Something tells me thats more than just a coincidence. Of the girls you guys have met how many pictures did they have?
Something tells me most profiles with 5 pics are fake ones

So far the only fake I encountered had 3 photos. I think the best way to tell is if they have 0 mutual interests. Anyone can create a fake facebook profiles using fake photos and use that to set up a tinder account and then use that for the camwhore site.

edit: I mean if it has just some photos and has not liked any music or movies or tv shows, that seems to be what the spam accounts are doing. Of course it is possible that you just have vastly different tastes and so you have zero interest matches. Or maybe her photo is real and she just never really liked any facebook pages at all.

I think having mutual friends is a good pre qualifier. I can only speak from my experience, but I've noticed that I am slightly more likely to swipe "yes" to women that are friends of my facebook friends. Don't get me wrong, if I am not attracted to them, I will still swipe "no".

Well I would rather that the girls not know if they are friends of a friends on facebook so I don't get labeled as a player or something in my social group.

I downloaded the app last night and still no matches.

I'm in a fairly large urban area.

Does this work for guys over 30?

I would say 90% of the women on the site are in their early to mid 20s. After a few minutes I deleted the ap and changed my age on facebook to 29(i am 37 but can pass for younger) and installed tinder again.

I am getting matches and dates with hot 23 year olds now.

If you think you can pull off looking in your 20s, then try it. Of course, if you look like you are in your late 30s/early 40s, you will probably be found out pretty quickly. To use this app, you absolutely must have good photos.

its a good pre-qualifier and good conversation starter. Wouldnt worry about being labeled a 'player', most players steer clear of online dating, hahaha. You're doing what most normal people do to hook up anyway, no shame in this game. I have matched with co-workers, friends, past colleagues, clients, etc etc. How awkward is it when one of your best clients, a 40 yr old executive single lady, flashes up on your screen? Or a former big client fucking emails you to tell you to email her friend back who you matched with on Tinder? Or the annoying younger chick in the office you accidentally match with who keeps emailing because she thinks its funny(and wants to fuck you for status). One girl I ended up meeting with got me an intro to a giant client. Anymore its as much as a social connector for me as a dating tool.

I created a new facebook account. My real one is on super lock down

how many friends do you need in order for search to work? I only have 1 and keep getting you have seen all the recommendations near you

I think 50, but that was just from the ROK article on tinder. I haven't tested this myself.

I am rereading this thread. Soup and blurred sevens give some great advice on pages 6 and 7 of this thread.

I think someone needs to write a definite faq/guide for gaming on Tinder. Some members here are having good success!

Definitive guide:

1. Have good photos
2. Be aggressive and push for the meetup
3. Laugh off her concerns about meeting too fast
4. Have good photos

That can be tricky.

I've pushed for the number too fast and got nowhere. Then took it a little slower, a little more back and forth just to let them feel more comfortable. Say "this app is killing my battery, let's switch to text". That has worked better for me than being aggressive.

As far as having good photos, I couldn't agree more.

Just need to give my two cents, I installed this app two days ago...
I'd say that here, in the Montreal area, the average tinder girl is an 8.
Which is alot better than badoo for example, where I find girls are sluttier.. not that its not always a bad thing
But the dimes arent trying to fuck dudes on badoo, they installed tinder cuz its "hip" and easy. And they can be on it while university classes are boring, ect

I've had over a dozen matches with 7's+ within two days... and Im meeting a girl on friday, and another on saturday. Also, Ive liked a bunch of stupid shit on my facebook, so the mutual likes are actually pretty cool.

Will give this a two week trial, but im impressed at the moment.

Tip: like ASOS and any similar cool clothing/lifestyle pages on facebook so you get matched with more girls who are also into that sort of thing.. usually fashionable and stylish girls who care more about their appearance.
Worked for me.

anyone use Carrot Dating

Yes this. What I have been using that works is(after talking to them for at least 10 back and forth messages), " I guess I am old school, I would rather talk to girls I like on the phone rather than on text or instant message." (thanks gman and other guys who say it's better to call than text)

Having good photos will get your foot in the door, but you need to really step up your text and phone game to stand out from the rest of her matches. Just think, the good looking women must have dozens of hundreds or even thousands of matches(depending on how much they swipe right)

Another thing, I fell asleep with my tinder running, the next day i got a message saying that i had used up 75% of my data package(it resets in 6 days so I am not too bothered). I agree with the guys saying just use this once per day, or even once every couple of days. Then the first faces you see will be girls that already swiped "yes" to you.

The level of talent in los angeles is insane. Probably not as good as say, san diego, miami, santa barbara, maybe fort lauterdale but still extremely high. Anyone not using this app is seriously missing out. You need good photos and good text game.

Text "game" is to game what cliff notes are to Shakespeare's collected works.

Online game doesn't really begin until you get the girl on the phone at a bare minimum, and really when you first meet her.

You are the one saying to be aggressive and push for the meetup right away? I've found the opposite to be true for tinder. In fact, that is a great way to get them to block you, just be super aggressive and ask for their phone number and say you want to meet up after a few messages- then find them no longer on your list because they blocked you.

Or she will just go quiet and stop messaging you, and once that happens, it is like soup said, once that happens it is like you just scared a cat away- she won't be coming back.

If it it working for you, then great. But more often than not, if you are too heavy handed with your texting, you are just shooting yourself in the foot, or more like the balls.

Does this app compare to Skout in some way? If somenone used both, break it down.

So who has actually banged girls from Tinder? Seems like just another social media platform for girls to attention-whore.

Thanks man. I think with this thread and the OKC thread, the best stuff is in the first 10 pages. After that it just kind of goes on repeat with many of the same questions being asked and the similar observations being made.

had one tinder date monday, one date wednesday.

monday 18yo pulled to room, froze up, LMR, left.

wednesday 22yo, macked at pub and outside quite a few times, she left for home, hopefully see again next week.

got my fake tinder working. You need at least 11 friends for search to start working

Not my experience. I say tinder barely works on my phone, we should text instead. Almost always get them to text me.

I have way way more losses when I start with the opener, or shortly thereafter - I have chicks loving my first line and then I respond, and then never hear back from them. I know my lines are solid, but they just stop responding sometimes. One girl recently scheduled to meet up with me, and then couldn't ostensibly due to work and now won't even talk to me. Maybe her car tire goes flat one day and cockblocks you from ever meeting her because she immediately moves on - girls are that flakey. So I say strike while the iron's hot, while you're still a novelty.

I wouldn't advise the same with OKC, unless she's sending you short quick messages.

I've fucked five or six girls off Tinder so far.

I strongly disagree, I have had 2 girls off tinder now drive to my house to fuck me using only text game and a couple pictures.


You can get girls so fucked up sexually if your text game is on point it's a very valuable tool.

Think of it this way -

can a man who did a shitty approach, who only talked to a girl for five minutes, and who never expressed sexual intent really turn things around via text message?

Usually not.

The same thing holds true here.

But substitute your pics for the approach. Online and in apps like tinder, the pics *are* the approach.
