My Tinder Journey

1. I posted a half naked picture of a woman. There was a flood of indecent messages and I guess that is not surprising. Still, I must admit that the attention is flattering. Somehow, it fills a void in a drained self-esteem. 

2. A picture of chocolate cookies lathered with chocolate. 

I found my people- the chocolate lovers, the foodies, the coffee shop enthusiasts and the hungry. It was a better set of conversation because there was talk about things I love.

3. The Tinder Passport. 

My friend suggested Tinder Passport because I feel embarrassed if people I know will see me in Tinder. I went to Scotland because of the tv series Outlander and I posted a real pic. Initially, I thought I am really pretty because there are so many guys messaging me. Then I realized its normal because of the quarantine and people are doing nothing. 

And then I met a guy... 

4. The Ring. 

This is the funny part. You know how cool it is to have those props used in movies? My friend has the ring from the Lord of the Rings. I find it so cool that I used it. I met my generation of movie enthusiasts. However, there were those who have zero awareness about the ring that Frodo delivered risking his life. Some men asked if I was married, or it was a wedding ring and many more ring stories that are unrelated to the Lord of the Rings. 

In conclusion, my quest for searching a love story in online dating apps has been fun. This is a world of lonely people indeed. We all seek companionship from someone who thinks like us. But no two people think alike. It will always be a matter of patience and commitment to stay and survive together.
