I am about to tell you an epic tale about subterfuge, dating in the 21st century and the fall of human civilization. This actually happened to me and it could happen to you too. Get some popcorn. *Thread*

Everybody who was simultaneously smart, confident, and frankly worth dating left.
Yeah….. but it IS Tinder. I’m not even surprised.
