Tinder might not just be for hook-ups and a hub for bad one-liners, but the dating app has produced its fair share of horror stories.
On Wednesday, one Reddit user threw it out there.
"What is your Tinder horror story?" the user asked cyber-space.
One day and more than 14,200 comments later, there are more than a few shockers. As always, bad, harmless, dating stories are always entertaining. Here are a few:
"A little back story: A few years ago I was dating this girl and her father REALLY hated me. Which was a bit odd as most parents love me (or at least lie about it real well). He was just a huge prick and I always called him on his shit. Anyways, her parents got divorced, we broke up a few months later etc etc.
Fast forward to around a year later. Me and girl from Tinder were dating for a few months and things were starting to get serious. We're at the point where she wants me to meet her family. Mother, step father, little sister. Why not? I have no problems meeting them, lets do it i said. She told me how excited her step dad was to meet me as it turns out we both happen to be Kansas City Chiefs fans.
Well, f... me if it wasn't the same a....e father of my ex girlfriend..." - therealJayT
"Buddy of mine hit it off with this girl and after a few days, she invited him over to a house party. "Sure" he says, what could go wrong? He shows up and is introduced to a few of her friends, all guys. As the night carries on, more and more guys show up and very few girls are actually at the party. After they start talking about how they all know this girl they find out that she invited them all from Tinder. Every guy was there not to hook up, but to populate this chick's birthday party. EDIT: Auto corrects from phone." - AJTTOTD
"Got a Tinder notification on my phone...realized I don't have Tinder and was holding my girlfriends phone." - JazzFan419
"Matched with my cousin." - DonsMagic
"I matched an attractive girl and got the nudies from her. The next day I went in to start training at the restaurant I had just began working at, and learned that she was training me, and a shift manager." - WhitePartyHat
"My friend, bless her heart, she's got so many Tinder stories. Once a guy wanted to bring his mom on the first date. Another bragged about stealing money from his kid sister's piggy bank, and yet my friend still had to pay for his dinner. Another was a guy on house arrest (there's clue #1 right there) who, after a few times hanging out, turned into a total monster and would not stop harassing her and basically verbally abusing her. She ended up blocking him. I love her, but I worry about her sometimes." - TomoCassie
​"I met this guy on tinder and we had a couple really fun dates. I was pretty into him, so on our third date, I decided I wanted to have sex with him. He took me out for a really nice date and then he invited me back to his place for a glass of wine. One thing led to another and we started making out on his couch, fully clothed. But this lasted FOREVER. I was ready to go, if you know what I mean... I didn't want to make out the whole night. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and I took off all of my clothes. Then he sits up, still fully clothed, and looks at me, and says, "I can't have sex with you, I have a STD." Possibly most awkward moment of my life. I tried to be super nice about it, but I promptly got dressed and left. (And as many of my friends have pointed out, I am extremely grateful that he told me)." - businesskat22
"tinder date with a "famous" chef where I was taken to a dive bar, where he promptly starting talking about how famous he was. We drank and watched sports, he proceeded to tell me "You're cute" and this eventually went to "I am going to make you bleed." He then invited one of his friends to come along. I went outside and he came up to kiss me. I was drunk, so I kissed back. Eventually he proceeded to tell me how he was "being charged with battering his ex-girlfriend, but he totally didn't do it."
Eventually when it came time to pay the bill, "he lost his wallet." Of course, I get stuck with it. "I'll pay you back.". (Needless to say I never got a payment).
Then he leaned up against me. I thought he was trying to kiss me again, but I looked down, and he was peeing on me. In the street. Peeing. On. Me.
I swiftly, being too inebriated to drive, went and got myself a hotel room and a hot shower.
Never again." - Baconbaconbaconbits
