Although it's tempting, I don't like to knock online dating all that much. Yeah, it's kind of dorky and sad, but lets be honest, who hasn't been drunk, depressed and alone on a Friday night and wanted to see what FarmersOnly.com is all about?
Everyone meets online today. I read a stat that 17% of last year's marriages started as online relationships. When you consider most couples who met online are ashamed to admit they met online, that number is remarkably high.
The new popular online dating app for millennials is called Tinder. Out of all the online dating websites out there, it's the safest to use without looking like a total loser. That's because it's superficial and built entirely around judging someone by their looks. You don't have to take a personality test or anything. When you see someone's pic that you like, you swipe right. If they then swipe right on your profile, you're connected and probably having guilt free sex soon after. In a way, it's kind of like the bar scene of online dating websites. It's based entirely off first impressions, personality doesn't matter and most of the people using it are drunk.
Hell, Tinder is so cool that even popular people like KOCO's Bree Steffen are using it. An Ogle Mole stumbled across her profile and sent us some screenshots. Check them all out:
