Tinder And The Real Reason Everyone Is Using It

And why it is not okay

Tinder And The Real Reason Everyone Is Using It
Huffington Post

Let's go over the real reason everyone is using tinder and why it is not okay.

Tinder is a new thing that majority of college students or people in their 20's use but my real question is what do you get out of it?

Swipe left, swipe right.. take a minute to understand that.. this is the dumbest thing I have ever heard

And not to hurt any one's feelings that actually uses tender but it is nothing more than a local hook up app, in whatever town you are in you can find people in that same area as you

The truth hurts but I am here to tell you, our generation complains about the horrible relationships that we have allowed ourselves to get into or the horrible ways we are all treated but then we go and we download apps like Tinder and date or hang out with the guys or girls off of there.

A lot of the times you will hear the college stories about how they went on a trip and immediately got onto tinder to find all of the local "hotties"

Why are we searching for confidence from an app, how many swipe rights you got or how many "superlikes" you have gotten.

Us females have lost our minds downloading this app and letting ourselves be fully available to be hit on in a disrespectful manner or even worse a one night stand and never hearing from them again

We complain about the way men talk to us and the disrespectful direct messages we receive but are so quick to download something like tinder to put our faces and bodies out there to be seen and "swiped right on"

No, I am not saying if you have a Tinder that you are suddenly a bad person because you could be the greatest person walking but that doesn't change your intentions while using this app but we can not continuously complain about our generations dating compared to back in the day when we allow ourselves to be freelanced on sites like Tinder when we all know the intentions of guys and sometimes girls on Tinder is not to just sit down and have a cup of coffee or actually go on a well thought out date..

We are all so much more than a swipe on an app and I do not understand why that is so difficult for us to understand. You deserve the person you can go out with and enjoy life with.

Not someone that is just in the same town as you for the night, there is so many things wrong with that, know what you deserve.

Open your eyes and know your worth because I promise someone will see the beauty that you have inside and out and give you everything deserve but you will not find that in a Tinder site. Respect yourself first so others will respect you also.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
