Ladies, It's Time To Stop Using Tinder Because You're Bored

In today's society, everyone has either heard or used Tinder at least once. Some people use it like they're reading the morning paper while others stay away from it. The reason why I'm bringing this up is because many millennial individuals turn to Tinder when they broke up with their significant other, got into a fight, or simply because of boredom.The dating pool on Tinder usually consists of overly-horny individuals who are looking for a "good-time," some who are even married, others who wish to see where things go or those who want to get into a relationship.

My issue is that there are people who use Tinder as a way to cope with breakups or because they are lonely or in a mood.

The thing is that I can't tell anyone who can and can't use the app, but please make it clear what you're looking for through the app. If you want a relationship, then just state it. If you want a hook-up, let that person know beforehand. If you go on Tinder due to boredom, while the person talking to you may be looking for something serious, please don't waste their time. I know people who use Tinder as their go-to as soon as they end a relationship and want someone to replace. I will tell you this firsthand that this is a bad idea. This will make you start comparing the new person to your ex and you will miss your ex more. On top of that, you end up wasting the other person's time.

Who knows, there are many good things that can happen when boredom strikes, but once feelings are involved, it may be a bad idea for you and the people you meet on Tinder.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
