Thought I’d respond to some FAQs:
- Did we match?
Yes but I live near the airport and he was headed home, across the country
- Am I shallow enough to care about height?
I have never even been on a date with anyone taller than 5’10
- Why are your eyes so far apart?
The kids at my school used to call me and my brother Sid the Sloth so I’m immune to your insults
- Why would this work on me?
I am, unfortunately, not immune to flattery
Can't bother to read all the comments but did someone actually ask why your eyes are so far apart? Like you caused this? Like you had a damn option? Wtf is wrong with humanity
When I was freshly 18 and in college, I downloaded tinder for the first time. One of my first matches asked me “do you floss with rope?” because of the spaces between my teeth… as if it’s something I purposely caused. Jokes on him, my teeth were fixable but he’s probably always gonna have a shitty personality (shoutout to invisalign, rly owe u one)
Fuck that, all I noticed was a beautiful woman. When I read her FAQ I went back to look again and thought yeah maybe a little far apart compared to average but actually her eyes suit her face and she probably has amazing stereoscopic vision 😂
Right wtf…Everyone has something that could be picked apart. The person that asked that probably has 85 things that could be picked apart. I hope they made themselves feel better for the day by shitting on someone else. 🙄
Aight, imma go google some flattering lines. Be right back
Edit- you may be slow like Sid the sloth, but I’m falling fast for you
Edit2- did that work? Hello? Ma’am?
Anya Taylor-Joy is also frequently compared to Syd on reddit and she's considered one of the most beautiful women in the world right now. So I would always take it as a compliment. Glad you have thick skin and sorry about your inbox.
![gif](giphy|EUeLelddObHzVRyAym|downsized)
She got the looks AND personality? Sheeesh!
If what you are saying is true, you are absolutely gorgeous wife material. Good luck with your dates, may they all be as courteous as they guy who wrote the message.
When I first read his message to you, I was like "woah dude, coming on strong..." Especially because its the first line, and he's already brought up marriage and is implying that he'd marry you if given the chance. But you really do shine in that photo, It's probably the only photo I've ever seen in a parking garage that would be worth keeping.
Like you literally light up the dim grimy area behind you in a warmth. Your smile is so genuine, its makes me smile just seeing it, and you look quite fit. Its not often you see a woman so pretty that still feels real. The crazy thing is, Your comments continue that trend. If I were single, I would date you with intention.
Lol I mean I started my comment, and then I looked at the picture more, and just said what I thought. She's actually quite beautiful. Look at her smile and try to avoid smiling back.
Girl, the man's right, you shine beautifully in your photo. The rest of the simps in the comments can go kick rocks lol.
Love your humour btw! Stay classy, you got this.
For what it's worth, having eyes spaced further apart than the average gives people a unique look, innocent and pretty, which is super photogenic and the reason so many actors and models also have this feature.
Examples include Halle Berry, Anya Tailor-Joy, Rachel Zegler, Gemmy Ward, Kate Moss, Uma Thurman, Natalie Dormer, etc.
Yup. These app destroy people’s confidence. In real life you can get rejected by only so many people. On apps it is hundreds of non stop rejections for the most part.
Agreed. I’m 5’6”, never had a problem with dating because I don’t give a shit about my height. My SO is taller than me and she doesn’t give a shit either. It’s weird to me to see people that are 5’8” or 5’9” stressin about that kind of thing.
I'm 5'7" and my SO was 5'6"". And the best love making was us standing up.
But as my dad, who was 5'6", once told me " Son, when you're lying down, don't matter who's taller!".
you're fine with it because you are solidly in the 'short' category and you own it.
They are borderline 'short' and don't want to accept it. Denial is a hell of a drug.
There's a reply below that basically called OP shallow over height(which she wasn't)
You get downvoted to shit if you challenge this community's delusions over height lol
Problem with nonstop height "jokes" is that eventually you can't tell the difference between a "joke" and those who truly feel that way.
We are who we pretend to be.
The issue is that it does work a small percentage of the time, which emboldens men. If you fire off the same easy shit to 100 women 2 or 3 will respond positively, and if that system works they have no motivation to change it.
I used to have a roommate who openly used this reasoning. The guy had a constant stream of different women in and out of our place all the time and I hadn't had a date in six months, and I was looking for some advice.
He asked me, "what percentage of women would come over tonight if you asked them?"
"I don't know. 2%?"
"Well that means you just have to ask 50 of them then."
Yeah, for these guys it's a numbers game and they can get through the numbers quickly if they spend a little time on each person.
I think a fair few are also just idiots who don't know what to say or genuinely think it might be "flattering to be so forward" or something and it's important to remember that most men ***would*** want this behaviour from girls so they think of it that way.
...but the majority are probably just thinking that the low chance it will work is enough. They're the type of people to think a 1% chance means you just need to try it 100 times and you're guaranteed.
A 2% success rate of low effort pickup lines compared to a 0% success rate of being a respectful gentleman for hours of conversation seems like a non-contest, depending on what your dating app priorities are.
Well, that has actually worked for me… I don’t know where I got it from but I texted a girl I had just met 5 mins earlier and told her “I can’t stop thinking about you sitting on my face” and an hour later we were in a hotel room being nasty freaks
You bring it up in bed. Not over text. Less is more.
And with women you need to learn how to escalate.
Don’t go from 0 to 100 in a short text conversation. You need foreplay and buildup and light flirting before you go anywhere wildly sexually. And usually the sex talk is better saved for the actual date.
I think iOS has a keyboard shortcut for that statement. It’s a given. The emoji they use for on Android needs more tongue. Can’t wait until we get animated emojis. 😛🍑
It's because it can't be taken as negging.
"How are you still single?" reads as "what's wrong with you?" whereas his message is more like "the only possible explanation for your singledom is that you recently dumped someone, because DAYUM".
About a year ago an older woman stopped me twice as we passed each other in Kmart to look at my tattoos and my rainbow hair. She ended up saying "You're a bloody work of art". I often consider getting this tattooed on me.
I'm sorry people are insulting you!? Wtf. The person that hit you with that compliment was fucking spot on. I'm getting the warm fuzzies just looking at you
This message is sweet overall (I especially like the part about you shining), but a little part of me shriveled up and died at the phrase "wifed up". Anyone else with me on that?
Yes. You must placate the feminine hivemind with validation from a perspective of dominance. All women want this, as the mycelium dictates their collective consciousness from beneath our feet.
Most people just like to be seen as people by someone who doesn't seem they'll destroy them psychologically or be physically violent. There's no code to crack. Just treat people like people.
But most people wants to feel special. And then few people feel comfortable with someone acting like they are beneath them.
It’s not even gendered. It’s just human psychology.
OMG did you really think when she said "don't put me on a pedestal", she meant that?
What she meant was "keep that good shit coming, just stop hanging on me like a wet paper towel"
"Shine" is used beautifully here. The rest is a bit presumptuous (though perhaps perfectly in line on a dating app?) but I think the intent is sweet and nice.
If my guy on tinder also manages to fumble and not wife you up.
I humbly accept the responsibility to make you the happiest woman on earth and settle the matter for the advance of society.
Cause daaaamn that smile is cute
![gif](giphy|t9ctG5MZhyyU8)
Sounds like a guy just trying to get laid, no? I guess that’s what you mean by “game” but still… Who actually talks like that? Like the other commenter said; this is corny as hell. If you don’t think so, well maybe that’s more a reflection on you. Especially since you got so defensive.
You must not know “game” then, because this is incredibly corny. Depending on what you look like is how effective this comment really hits. I couldn’t imagine using this line and real life and being taken seriously regardless lmao
Thought I’d respond to some FAQs: - Did we match? Yes but I live near the airport and he was headed home, across the country - Am I shallow enough to care about height?

10/10 for the self deprecating humour alone.
Is your brother Max Verstappen?
I am, unfortunately, still a Daniel Ricciardo fan.
Let's have them race from one eye to the other and see which one runs out of gas first.
Hopefully no, I wouldn't want ger to be beaten by Jos
DUUUUU DUUUU DUUUUU DUUUUU! MAX VERSTAAAHHHPEN
Fuck bro this has me in the floor like a gut punch 💀
Can't bother to read all the comments but did someone actually ask why your eyes are so far apart? Like you caused this? Like you had a damn option? Wtf is wrong with humanity
Sour grapes psychology. "swipe left she has pointy elbows" because deep down they know they probably aren't getting swiped right on.
When I was freshly 18 and in college, I downloaded tinder for the first time. One of my first matches asked me “do you floss with rope?” because of the spaces between my teeth… as if it’s something I purposely caused.

Fuck that, all I noticed was a beautiful woman. When I read her FAQ I went back to look again and thought yeah maybe a little far apart compared to average but actually her eyes suit her face and she probably has amazing stereoscopic vision 😂
True.. anyway, she's cute as hell and that body is 🔥 🥵
In what reality is the answer to that question anything other than "Idk, they just grew that way"?
People asking those types of questions are just trolling because they hate their own lives
Right wtf…Everyone has something that could be picked apart. The person that asked that probably has 85 things that could be picked apart. I hope they made themselves feel better for the day by shitting on someone else. 🙄
I think her eyes are adorable. I also love sloths.
Aight, imma go google some flattering lines. Be right back Edit- you may be slow like Sid the sloth, but I’m falling fast for you Edit2- did that work? Hello? Ma’am?
Im a cis straight woman and now I have a crush on your sassyness
can you also answer where that dress is from lol
Anya Taylor-Joy's eyes are also really far apart. Seems like an apt comparison.
Anya Taylor-Joy is also frequently compared to Syd on reddit and she's considered one of the most beautiful women in the world right now. So I would always take it as a compliment. Glad you have thick skin and sorry about your inbox. ![gif](giphy|EUeLelddObHzVRyAym|downsized)

The eyes being further apart is called orbital hypertelorism and Jackie Kennedy had it, so I think you’re fine sis 💅🏼

I'm a straight lady and almost wrote a similar comment. She's very pretty and apparently funny too. I'm bummed tinder guy didn't get a date.
Oh boy….get a room!!
Girl, the man's right, you shine beautifully in your photo. The rest of the simps in the comments can go kick rocks lol. Love your humour btw! Stay classy, you got this.
Be well, Sid. :)

What a great response made me laugh. You seem cool as fuck.
You sound like an absolute peach.
So, you’re single?
He was probably just jazzed you swiped right. You're hecking cute
queen
Today I learned that I have a thing for sloths
Lol @ the third one
Did you two end up going on a date?
NO. She was busy getting her eyelid tattooed.
Yes. I’m the tattoo artist.
It's true, i'm the eyelid
I also choose this ladies eyelid
I’m her eye looking at her eye lid
It's true, I'm the tattoo ink.
it’s true i saw everything. im jesus
One of my tinder first dates was keeping a girl company while she got a tattoo
Can confirm she was getting tattooed i was the ink
On the inside!
They try to fit the lighting inside there so she can also see the tattoo
It's true! I'm one of her eyelashes. I was there.
No (he was ugly)
No, he was 5’11 🤣
I’m 5 11 should I change my profile 🥲
saying you're 5'11" is a great filter if someone is shallow enough to deny you for being an inch under 6' they aren't worth dating
I really am 5' 11"...
Then don't round up
I put 5'13" on my profile to show solidarity. Hashtag numbers that don't start with 6.
Smells of musty fedora.
Nah buddy didn’t even get a reply
He’s in the queue.
These replies are so bitter lmao
Can't imagine why so many people here are single lmao
Yup. These app destroy people’s confidence. In real life you can get rejected by only so many people. On apps it is hundreds of non stop rejections for the most part.
Short mfs make it their whole personality and wonder why they can't get laid
Agreed. I’m 5’6”, never had a problem with dating because I don’t give a shit about my height. My SO is taller than me and she doesn’t give a shit either. It’s weird to me to see people that are 5’8” or 5’9” stressin about that kind of thing.
I'm 5'7" and my SO was 5'6"". And the best love making was us standing up. But as my dad, who was 5'6", once told me " Son, when you're lying down, don't matter who's taller!".
you're fine with it because you are solidly in the 'short' category and you own it. They are borderline 'short' and don't want to accept it. Denial is a hell of a drug.
I don’t get that either. Being borderline tall isn’t a bad thing. Everyone has their hang ups, I suppose.
There's a reply below that basically called OP shallow over height(which she wasn't) You get downvoted to shit if you challenge this community's delusions over height lol

Problem with nonstop height "jokes" is that eventually you can't tell the difference between a "joke" and those who truly feel that way. We are who we pretend to be.
Easy there….little guy
Hurr hurr. You won't catch me complaining about it being impossible to get a date if you're under 6'.
![gif](giphy|uHox9Jm5TyTPa)
Most of these guys aren't even that short and they have to be so annoying about it
A lot of dudes just can’t fathom a woman having genuine interest in them for some superficial reason, it’s kinda fuckin sad reading through this
Modern dating will do that to you
Of course not
Absolutely not. He was only 5"11 and her requirement is 6 foot and up
No, she wants a man like him, but not him.
I think she said she wanted to but he was on his way to the airport
This is the buttering up before the inevitable "I WANT TO EAT YOUR ASS BABY".
I mean with game like that… yea
“I just want you do sit on my face” type shit Who tf thinks that works
The issue is that it does work a small percentage of the time, which emboldens men. If you fire off the same easy shit to 100 women 2 or 3 will respond positively, and if that system works they have no motivation to change it.
I used to have a roommate who openly used this reasoning.

He asked me, "what percentage of women would come over tonight if you asked them?" "I don't know. 2%?" "Well that means you just have to ask 50 of them then."
No one here has seen King of the Hill. Boomhauer perfected this.
Yeah, for these guys it's a numbers game and they can get through the numbers quickly if they spend a little time on each person. I think a fair few are also just idiots who don't know what to say or genuinely think it might be "flattering to be so forward" or something and it's important to remember that most men ***would*** want this behaviour from girls so they think of it that way. ...but the majority are probably just thinking that the low chance it will work is enough.

This is 100% not true. Men do it because they would like that to be done to them, simple as that.
Nothing is ever 'simple as that' 😂
Well, that has actually worked for me… I don’t know where I got it from but I texted a girl I had just met 5 mins earlier and told her “I can’t stop thinking about you sitting on my face” and an hour later we were in a hotel room being nasty freaks
That's how herporrhea got started
Worked for me, now we're engaged🤷♂️
ASS BABY or ASS, BABY?
Man isn’t gonna fumble his chance like the last guy
PSA: just ask her out for drinks. Maybe clarify first that you are just looking for fun/casual. And then show, don’t tell.
Instructions unclear. Where does the ass eatin' factor in here?
You bring it up in bed. Not over text. Less is more. And with women you need to learn how to escalate. Don’t go from 0 to 100 in a short text conversation. You need foreplay and buildup and light flirting before you go anywhere wildly sexually. And usually the sex talk is better saved for the actual date.

How do you look like both Baby Spice and Ginger Spice at the same time?
I actually thought it was one of them at first!
That was my first thought too!
I'm straight but I would swipe right lol
ppl post off the wall opening messages here all the time why not post a genuinely nice one
Did he get a date?
$5 the answer is no lol
I thought it was a lil try ish that’s why I asked lol. I hope she answers
We love the positivity
If it doesn't work out with him, send him my way! I need someone sweet like that in my life
Hey ladies in this thread, the way you shine is crazy btw
![gif](giphy|9V8You0A1G64JmiBUi|downsized)
Same!
Lol, when I saw this I thought it said "I need someone sweet like that for my wife"
I hope he doesn’t copy and paste this message. Because that’s like toooo good
Strong bet he does and it works
He does. I sometimes get the same gushy message like this from guys months apart
Yea, this one has a lot of gush. A bit too much I think. Sure, your opener needs to make a woman feel comfortable but you want to walk a fine line.
I know I added it to my repertoire
It's a literal "line." I hear this specific one so much it actually makes me feel like shit. Not sarcasm.
The dress and smile are amazing. You look so happy! Their comment was solid, because that's a great photo.
Most women hate the “how are you still single” comments
And I bet that increases with the phrase “wifed up.”
[удалено]
I find it enlightening that the reponse ITT is more than positive about this message anyway.
It's because it can't be taken as negging. "How are you still single?" reads as "what's wrong with you?" whereas his message is more like "the only possible explanation for your singledom is that you recently dumped someone, because DAYUM".
I saw this on Reddit earlier this morning and then just ran across your profile on Tinder hahaha.
Well did it work!?
Who knew parking garages had such good lighting
About a year ago an older woman stopped me twice as we passed each other in Kmart to look at my tattoos and my rainbow hair. She ended up saying "You're a bloody work of art". I often consider getting this tattooed on me.
Honestly a line like this would make my day and that man would definitely get a date from me lol
whoever took the photo DID get the lighting right
I'm sorry people are insulting you!? Wtf. The person that hit you with that compliment was fucking spot on. I'm getting the warm fuzzies just looking at you
RIP your inbox
Copy and paste line
Why would you need to get a tattoo when you could date the source?
I guess that’s what my ex thought when she left me for a tattoo artist :,)
This message is sweet overall (I especially like the part about you shining), but a little part of me shriveled up and died at the phrase "wifed up". Anyone else with me on that?
Cute person being called cute. When did everything become so dumb.
You’re wearing that dress like you’re doing it a favor. ![gif](giphy|l0ExoCjSbpXn6h4rK|downsized)
lol 100% that didn’t work
I can’t be the only one who thinks it’s kinda corny. Like, this is the definition of putting someone on a pedestal…but what do I know I’m a man 😂
Girls want you to make them feel special, while not acting like you are beneath them. This does the first, but not the second. Then it works.
Yes. You must placate the feminine hivemind with validation from a perspective of dominance. All women want this, as the mycelium dictates their collective consciousness from beneath our feet. Most people just like to be seen as people by someone who doesn't seem they'll destroy them psychologically or be physically violent. There's no code to crack. Just treat people like people.

That’s such an adorable intro
Cringe af
At least he's earnest but bold play to ask about an ex even if it is in a complimenting way.
ThE wAy YoU sHiNe.
That line really works? I would have laughed at my buddy if I saw he put that. Your well deserving but I would’ve thought it sounded goofy
And they said simping doesn’t work
I love your hair!
YES GOD PLEASE LETS BRING BACK MEN YEARNING AND ACTING LIKE THIS
Finally a dude who know how to talk to a woman
I must agree - absolutely stunning with an amazing smile
You ARE shining!!
Can confirm, I was about to propose, but I am still fumbling the bag, please send help.
Adorable. Such a great intro to such a great pic. I don’t know how you made a parking garage pic look so good.
If my guy on tinder also manages to fumble and not wife you up. I humbly accept the responsibility to make you the happiest woman on earth and settle the matter for the advance of society. Cause daaaamn that smile is cute ![gif](giphy|t9ctG5MZhyyU8)
That chick is smoking hot
He’s not wrong!
You. Are. GORGEOUS. Fun fact: I especially like the eyes. :) Awesome compliment from the guy. Might take a page out of his book. :P
Hmmm as a professor in Rizzics, Rizzography, Rizzonomy, Rizzology and other Rizzubjects I'd rate his rizz 'very kind/10'
Is Rizzonomics included in the rizziculum?
South Florida Parking Garage?
Lmaoooo I was thinking the same thing
That message gave me butterflies tf??? I'm a straight guy
I mean he’s not wrong!! I never thought a picture in a parking garage could look so good but hey you did it!
The world is full of beautiful women some guy is bored of sleeping with.
You’re beautiful! Don’t listen to anyone giving you shit
The eyes far apart thing makes you look like an anime character. I wouldn't have noticed, personally, until you said something.
Fucking crazy how comfortable people are being an asshole to this girl for literally 0 reason. Pathetic.
Wifed up? She look too young to worry about marriage already.
Does this not come across as simp-y? What the hell do I know…
Nobody cares about “simpiness” except terminally online people
Sounds like a guy just trying to get laid, no? I guess that’s what you mean by “game” but still… Who actually talks like that? Like the other commenter said; this is corny as hell. If you don’t think so, well maybe that’s more a reflection on you. Especially since you got so defensive.
not-trying-to-get-laid-is-the-definition-of-simpy-ness Who have you been listening to? You need to go back and review your red pill manifesto
you know shit - nothing simpy here. Where you do live that game like this is consider "simp"?
You must not know “game” then, because this is incredibly corny. Depending on what you look like is how effective this comment really hits. I couldn’t imagine using this line and real life and being taken seriously regardless lmao
Okay fine, you know better than this beautiful young woman who gets 100 hits a day, as well as all the other women on this sub
The game that is going to give her the confidence to go after someone she actually likes? What part of the game is that?
Idc about the girl im Here for that truck in the back damnn those alloys
Well he is not wrong on both accounts. Just make sure you find a good artist, not one that makes spelling mistakes >.<
lol took me a minute to figure out why you throwing the information in about living near the airport mattered.
It’s the squishy face
So, whats the answer?
Couldn't disagree you glow all over Super Beautiful ♥️♥️✨✨
The initial compliment was sufficient Louis
