In the tech age, dating has moved beyond online dating and moved into mobile dating — meeting women right from your phone. We’re talking of course of Tinder and mobile dating apps like it. If you’re not using Tinder, you should think about it. And, if you are using them, it’s time to start thinking about whether or not you’re using them in the best way possible.
Why Tinder Is a Great Place to Meet Women
Tinder is a great place to meet women because it lets you meet women during the time you’re spending messing around on your phone: Sitting on a bus, in the waiting lobby of the dentist or any place when you’re idly killing time. Think about it: Why use this time checking Facebook or Twitter for the tenth time today when you can use it to meet some seriously smoking women?
How to use Tinder: Setting Up Your Profile
It all starts with setting up your profile. Our tips for how to set up a Tinder profile include:
- Make sure your Facebook profile is up to date: Tinder and other mobile dating apps pull pictures and interests from your Facebook.
- Have your most important interests on your Facebook profile. Opt for interests that show things you like to do rather than how you feel about things.
- Use pictures that aren’t just you looking your best, but also being awesomely social.
- Make your tag line irreverent, witty and flirtatious: Never negative or self-effacing. Also avoid being vague with statements like “I like to try new things.”
This will help you to stand out to the type of women you want to filter in.
How to Use Tinder: Selecting Women
Sure there are tons of great-looking women on Tinder. But just being attractive isn’t enough for you. You’re looking for only those women who are physically attractive and with whom you have some kind of chemistry. So take a look at her interests. Even if all you’re looking for is a hookup, you’re still going to find flirting with her a lot easier when the two of you have something in common than if you don’t.
How to use Tinder: Getting Over to a Social Network
We urge men to move things from a dating website or mobile app and over to a social network as quickly as possible. This is because you can get a better sense of who she is really is — as opposed to who she wants you to think she is — when you see her Facebook page. So get over there as soon as you’ve decided that you want to know more,
Setting a Date
If after you check out her social network page you want to get together, go for the date sooner rather than later. After all, the whole point of mobile dating is… dating. Tell her that you think the two of you should get together soon, be it for a quick drink or even a full-fledged date.
