Tinder. Whether you wanted to find someone to hang out with, hook up with, or actually date, we’ve all been at that lowpoint in our lives where we thought getting a Tinder was a good idea. My lowpoint was the beginning of last semester. I had just gotten a new house and was going to be paying rent and all of my bills for the first time, so I was broke. While trying to think of ways to make some easy money, my friends jokingly said that I should make a Tinder to try to find a sugar daddy.
I 100% respect girls with sugar daddies, so I figured it was worth a shot. I had nothing to lose. I made an account with all of my cutest pics, set the age range as high as it would go, and put my Venmo in the bio. (It’s @allybrunner, if anyone is interested.) I decided to swipe right on everyone, cause looks don’t matter if you’re sending me money, and I pretty quickly had some matches. Whenever they messaged me, I made it clear that I just needed some extra cash.
Some people were surprisingly pretty into it, but most of them wanted something out of it too. I wasn’t trying to meet any 60 year old man who was matching with 20 year olds on Tinder, but they had some pretty convincing offers. I eventually got one guy to venmo me $50 because “a girl like you shouldn’t be struggling”. And ya know, shout out to that guy. Nobody should be struggling, so thanks for the help, Robert.
I woke up the next morning and tried to get onto my Tinder, but some error code came up instead. When I looked it up, it told me that I had been banned for violating the Terms of Service or Community Guidelines and would not be able to have a Tinder profile connected to my phone number.
It was fun while it lasted. Catch me on Seeking Arrangements.
