Is Tinder for reals, yo?

    OK, so I caved in and downloaded Tinder yesterday just to see what all the fuss is about and I hate to admit it, but it is quite addictive.

    One thing that bugs me though - does it really "match" people or is everyone matched automatically?

    I was testing it out earlier and I right swiped every single photo that popped up - and lo and behold, each and everytime it came back and said we were "matched"

    I doubt very much that those 50 peeps had already conveniently right swiped me earlier on too.

    And no this isn't a thinly veiled "I must be hot" type post - I deliberately have only one very grainy and dark blurry pic up with no boob action whatsoever.

    So does Tinder just "match" everyone automagically? Seems to be the case so far during my limited testing experience anyhow.

    I assume you are a girl.

    A lot of guys hit like or hot or whatever the button is called for all women they browse to improve their odds of finding a match. Its not the app thats at fault, it is doing matching, its the other users misusing the app which is the problem in your case.

    Thanks. That makes sense. I was just curious if it was a bit of a swizz "matching" everyone on the bloody thing. I think I need to uninstall now before I waste more hours on it today.Ah well, at least I can say I've tried it now, :)
