Seven Deadly Sins Guys Do on Grindr That Keep Them From Scoring A Date or Hookup!

Getting guys online nowadays is just like bidding on something from eBay. You search for your “item” which is your man, showing your advantage by bidding the highest amount is when you impress your chosen guy, entering a contractual agreement to buy the item which is basically agreeing to a rendezvous, and getting the “item” is getting it on! Easy! You just have to do everything online! But somehow, you don’t get what you like because there will always be somebody else who bids higher for the “item” and we know that’s a bit disappointing. It happens every time just to tell you but if it keeps on happening, there may be something you’re not doing right. We listed some of the common mistakes people do on Grindr which keeps them from getting the most out of the app.

1. People Don’t Put Face Pictures on Their Profile

Let’s admit it. We use Grindr to catch someone to fool around with. And doing it with someone who you have not even seen on pictures is somewhat of a no-no. Would you have sex with a headless torso? We seldom visit profiles that do not have pictures unless their usernames are catchy. But still, we shrug them off if they did not put anything that interests us on their profile and they don’t have any pictures. We’re sure that we don’t want ourselves guessing how the next guy we’re sleeping with looks like. So do the same. Try to put a decent and clear picture of yourself. Do minimal edits only just for little enhancements. We don’t want them seeing someone different in person!

2. Some People Put Somebody Else’s Pictures Instead of Theirs

I mean come on! Are you catfishing or what? Yes, they may find your profile picture attractive but they will be disappointed to find out that it’s not you on your profile picture. We don’t really get the logic on why would you even be asking to meet up when you’re using somebody else’s photo? Some even pull out the “privacy” card! You’re using someone’s photo without their permission. What do you call that? Again. You can turn it around by putting a clear and decent photo of yourself. If someone tapped you, at least they tapped you for how you really look like.

3. Some People Do Not Put Anything On Their Profile Bios

If you have a great body and good-looking face, you might still get away with it but not all the time. Some people do not look at the physique. Have you heard of sapiosexuals? Some need good sex but also want good conversation afterwards. Impress people by putting something you’re really interested with on your profile so you’d end up with someone with the same interests as you have.

4. People Sometimes Get Offensively Cocky

Some guys are afraid of getting rejected. Imagine liking someone on Grindr and visiting their profile seeing that he prefers someone who has the exact qualities that you don’t have or you are not? We understand that most of us have preferences but we don’t need to be rude to anybody. Some guys would put “I don’t respond to taps! Don’t tap me!” like tapping is a freaking crime. People exclude some types of guys from getting in touch with them which is somewhat rude. We even see racist profiles. It’s okay to have preferences but it’s better if you don’t offend anyone.

5. Some Guys Are Not Clear With Their Intentions

So you already got to the point where you are having conversations with this hot guy you like and you suddenly asked him if you could do the deed since that’s what you really came for and you’re pretty horny. But then you realized that he is not into one night stands. That really sucks for the both of you right? To avoid disappointments, make sure to be clear with the factor that brought you to use the app. If you’re into sex then put it there in your bio. If you’re not then put that. In this way, there will not be any misconceptions.

6. There Are Guys Who Are Obnoxiuos Possessive

When you get to talk to someone you like, there are tendencies that you don’t want to let go of them. Don’t force them to give their numbers to you. Don’t ask why they did not respond immediately to your messages. You’re just getting to know them. And if you continuously do that, there’s a big chance their knowing you more than you’re knowing them. They will know you as possessive! You don’t own their time.

7. There Are Horny Guys Who Would Require You to Host

You may have already encountered men on Grindr who would initiate the hookup but would blame you for not having a place to do it! That is definitely off! What’s going on with their minds? So you’d ask them if they would like to rent a room instead then they’ll refuse and will make you feel bad about not having your own room for pleasure. That’s funny and at the same time puzzling.

There’s actually a lot we can put here but there are also tons of ways to enjoy the app. If you think we missed something, get in the comments below and tell us what you think!
