19 Red Flags From Men On Dating Apps

โ€œAnything that insinuates youโ€™re too good to be on [insert dating site here]. If you were really too good for Tinder, you wouldnโ€™t be on Tinder.โ€ โ€” airfrommylungs

โ€œFor pictures: When all of your Tinder pictures are with other girls or poor attempts to crop your ex out. โ€” cutthroatblondebitch

โ€œWhen they message you out of nowhere and the first thing they say is sexual. I legitimately had a guy message me, โ€˜I want to shoot in your mouthโ€™ as a first message. Never saw or heard from the guy before and THATโ€™S how he thinks it would be appropriate to start a conversation. I mean really.โ€ โ€” Miss_Mollyarty

โ€œIโ€™m a nice guy. I donโ€™t understand why women donโ€™t like nice guys. Ditto about guys claiming they are intelligent and then saying women donโ€™t like intelligent guys.โ€ โ€” barbequelighter

โ€œAnything along the lines of โ€˜just tired of gamesโ€™ or โ€˜looking for someone who is real.โ€™ You sound like a whiny person who has some serious baggage.โ€ โ€” [deleted]

โ€œHearing about their ex/ bad breakup. Or โ€˜if I read your profile and like what I see, I may reply to your message.โ€™ Chill out there Narcissist Ned.โ€ โ€” RNtUGlad

โ€œA lot of party pictures where the person looks constantly drunk is an instant no.โ€ โ€” yaradahl

โ€œPutting a quote in their bio about how most women are crazy and how heโ€™s looking for a woman who isnโ€™t crazy.โ€ โ€” chickenandnuggies

โ€œIโ€™m probably more awesome than you. A friend wanted to know why he was never getting girls. This was on his page. I told him if I saw this Iโ€™d see it as a major red flag and indication of negging to come.โ€ โ€” handstandmonkey

โ€œBad grammar. And saying you like to party as if thatโ€™s your favorite hobby.โ€ โ€” evilene_sorcha

โ€œA list of emojis Iโ€™m supposed to decipher that explain who you are.โ€ โ€” pieceofgrass

โ€œBlank profiles. Profiles that make it clear you are deeply full of yourself. Ones with shirtless mirror photos.โ€ โ€” eriee

โ€œReally any list of people youย donโ€™tย want to date. It just makes you look like an assholeโ€ฆ Just filter out who you donโ€™t want.โ€ โ€” cmc

โ€œClaiming to be looking for someone who isnโ€™t shallow or superficial, then listing all the physical traits you have to have (e..g, must have at least C cup breasts). My biggest beef with this one is not listing a physical trait that you desire/donโ€™t desire; itโ€™s the hypocrisy of expecting others to overlook your shortcomings while refusing to overlook theirs.โ€ โ€” [deleted]

โ€œWhen they find the need to mention weed/420 in their profile. I donโ€™t give a shit if you smoke, but if you find the need to mention it in your profile like itโ€™s some part of your identity, itโ€™s probably too important in your life for me to really dig.โ€ โ€” hahaeh

โ€œFluent in sarcasm. I think this oneโ€™s unisex. Translation: Iโ€™m not funny, but Iโ€™ve convinced myself that the reason nobody laughs at my jokes is that theyโ€™re just too intellectual and edgy for a mainstream audience.โ€ โ€” Tawny_Frogmouth

โ€œI just want someone who can hold an intelligent conversation. Every single guy Iโ€™ve come across that says this usually means, I want to talk about things Iโ€™m interested in and nothing else.โ€ โ€” K8eCastle

โ€œWhen they write something prematurely passive aggressive like .. โ€˜6โ€™ 2โ€ โ€ฆ because apparently itโ€™s such a big deal.โ€™ Deal Breaker.โ€ โ€” Janelloshots

โ€œAny large rants. Particularly those about people not responding to their messages, pleading for people to give them a chance/theyโ€™re a nice guy/you women are so superficial/tired of all the FAKENESS type crap. Also any fully capitalized sentences. No thank you.โ€ โ€” royallyred
