Tinder. We have all heard of it, and many of us have used it. Whether you're on there for love, friendship, or hookups, it's fun to get to know people! Usually, Tinder tends to be harmless flirting, but sometimes the creeps come out and then we figure out why our parents tell us to stay away from strangers.
5. "Prostitu- WHAT?"
"I met up with this guy I found on Tinder when I happened to be in the town he was in one night. Everything went great and we decided to have some action in a what we thought was an abandoned parking lot. Out of nowhere, these cop cars pull up but not to our car but to my friend's car! We freak out and drive away but come back. The cop comes up to the car and I'm horrified and shaking. He asks if I've ever been arrested before, I said no and he looks at me up and down and says that that's hard to believe. He turns to his partner and he calls me a prostitute! Eventually they let us go and ever since, I have never gone on Tinder again. I wonder how the guy is doing..."

4. "Hey Young Hot College Stud"
"This one is not on Tinder but Grinder is the same thing essentially. I received a random message from this man on there and he says, "Hey young hot college stud." First off, what a message! He then proceeds to tell me he would like to participate in sexual acts with me in front of his straight friend because his friend wants to see if he himself is straight or not.............. UNMATCHED!" -Anonymous, 19
3. "We Want To Experiment"
"A guy messaged me on Tinder right after we matched. Normal conversation until I asked why he was on there. Long story short, he has a girlfriend who wants to experiment with a girl in a threesome and she asked him to get on Tinder... At least she trusts him?"

2. True Story: My TA Is Crazy
"I saw my TA on Tinder and I obviously swiped right! When we matched, we talked a bit and started snapchatting. What was weird is that if I did not respond, he would snapchat me multiple times asking what I was doing, I just brushed it off. In lectures, we would make awkward eye contact but he always offered to help me with homework or problems I did not understand. One particular weekend, I fell asleep and he snapchatted me FIVE TIMES! It wasn't him at a party or anything, just asking me what I was doing and why I wasn't talking to him. I stopped talking to him until I needed help. I texted him asking about a problem and he just read the message and let it be." -Anonymous, 19
1. Bots and More Bots
"It's sad when the only girls who swipe right on you are bots.... Really sad."
