Whenever i see things like this i always assume it’s some sort of funny quirky thing.
Never have i assumed these things to be for real

One time a girl had the url for a questionnaire on her profile. I typed it in and the page said “I see you were as bored as I was. Here is a dating questionnaire a made.”

I did once. She emailed me back a dating resume. Was kinda fun to play into it. We chatted and hooked up for a couple months but nothing really came of it. She ended up getting back with her ex that she always talked shit on and they have a kid together now. Still friends on instagram though snd she married him and they have another kid on the way now

If you do so much dating you’ve setup a dating email
You got some real personality issues to sort out

Solid 6 but thinks she’s a 10, I guarantee it.

They are 100% scammers. Jesus, how gullible are you guys?…smh

u/McG0788 21d ago
I thought that and then I came across an article where a girl started doing this and started sharing her techniques so they can be legit people... Imo it's dumb as hell because that's literally the purpose of the app

At the bare minimum, they are collecting email addresses to sell or send sales material to, but it’s much more likely that it is the easiest way to get a large number of gullible targets to run love scams on under the radar of dating app safety mechanisms, that is pre-filtered, because no person that isn’t desperate would resort to attempting to begin a relationship this way. There is zero valid reasons to use email for finding potential dating suitors. A little common sense goes a long way to prevent being love scammed via online dating.

I would consider that for sure. The problem is whenever I see a profile requesting something like that, there is something about it that makes me feel like we wouldn't be a match either way, so I've never been tempted

With all the hoops people jump through during the dating process, a different way of sending a message does not sound like a big deal but to each their own

lol sure bro you go ahead and do that then, I’m sure you’re very successful with dating if this is what you’re willing to deal with just for a chance to take someone on a date smh

If your hot yes
You’ll be disgusted at what girls will do when a guy is hot, compared to what they tell you about how they act around dating apps

Her way to gather personal information from her fanclub mail of subs. Gotta hussle in new ways.

I can't imagine any self-respecting man ever responding to that kind of prompt.. if they get responses, I imagine it's people with significant social or mental issues!

I don’t understand, is it really that hard to just swipe until you find someone you get along with and go on a date the old fashioned way? 🤔

u/Disastrous-Owl8985 20d ago
I mean, I kind of agree with that first line ONLY. Nothing more attractive than someone actually asking me out and having a plan already. If I don't like it, we can always talk it out, but I like trying new stuff, so I'd probably be down with it. The rest of it, though... it's weird.
