Online dating can get competitive. You need to know how to pick the best profile photo, be prepared to wade through mountains of small talk, and actually find someone worthy of some one-on-one screen time on Tinder to feel successful. Sometimes you might even cling to a hobby or interest to get the conversation started. Maybe you both like sports. Or there’s a mutual obsession with The Simpsons. Or what if you both liked Harry Potter? One reader shared a rather unique flirting situation she recently encountered with our brothers over at JOE.ie. One Galway girl was minding her own business on Tinder when she matched with a guy who bit the bullet and started a conversation. So far so good. Nobody likes a ghosting match. That was until she opened his message… and discovered a chat-up line so awkward it only belongs in the chipper on the way home from a night out. And even then there’s no excuse. Thankfully, our lady in question wasn’t about to be outdone. We’re pretty impressed by her reply… Somehow, we think he might think twice before trying that line again.
