Tinder vs. Strippers

shailynn

They never tell you what you need to know.

I have talked about this awhile back and wanted to share an experience with all the PLs.

First off, I would only recommend this for guys under 45 and preferably unattached. Since I travel a lot I started playing around with the Tinder app, never ever opening it in my home area, since it only searches for companions in your area. You can pay $20 a month to have the app search an area you are not in, and I tried that one month as well. There are also companion apps that help you search which will allow you to see many more women on Tinder, but it really didn't help me get more matches. I said it before and I'll say it again, it blows my mind how many smoking hot women are on Tinder. Several girls just photograph really well and aren't that hot in person, but several other appear to be the real deal.

As an experiment I tried focusing on 1 single city. For one thing I was at a major disadvantage because if I "liked" someone and they "liked" me, they still saw that I was 100s of miles away even though I paid extra on Tinder to show up in their area. Sadly it still showed I was 100s of miles away which I think really hurt me with a lot of my matches. One thing, there are a million airline stewardesses that show up on there all the time because they are staying the night in that particular city (just a fun note).

After messing around with the app I had 24 matches all within 5 years each way of my age (the way I wanted it) all in 1 city. All the girls were cute, some were hot, and a few were smoking hot. Using a more conservative "civvie" scale over a "stripper" scale I'd say 2 girls were a "6" 2 were a "9" and the rest fell between a "7" and "8." I had small talk with 4 of them, the rest I would assume just play Tinder as a game and see how many matches they can get with a cute guy, never really intending on making contact. I can't blame them, I was almost the same way trying to get this collection of "hot" girls that I probably would never even talk to as well.

Fast forward to this weekend I finally secured a date with one of the girls. My very first one btw. She was a 7 and the same age as me. Certainly not the stand out on my "matches" but very cute and a great personality to match. If she changed one thing about her she could be a high 8. Anyway I thought I had nothing to lose, if things fell apart I could ditch her and still hit a strip club and get what I was looking for.

I met her for drinks at 9, and she insisted on helping pay for things with the night. Usually I fight that pretty hard, but I realize women want to be more equal these days so I agreed to split our tabs through out the night. At the end of the night, I spent a grand total of $20 and brought a bottle of wine with me and ended up spending the night at her house having sex all night. Much cheaper than a stripper, same end result. For my first Tinder date I couldn't ask for anything better, but I am assuming most wouldn't happen that easily. She was really embarrassed that we went that far that quick (or at least acted like it) but I told her "we're just busy people that needed to have some excitement for once, it's no big deal." One thing that helped is we had talked on the phone and txted an entire week before the date, learning a lot about each other. She appears to be a work-a-holic like me and just was excited to actually get out with a normal guy (little does she know) instead of spending a Saturday night on her couch drinking wine watching Scandal.

I know we all talk about ITC, OTC, relationships, etc. but this is another route some (not all) of us here can explore. It's a whole lot cheaper but it takes a lot more patience and effort. I can tell you one thing, if you establish communication with these girls, they will actually return all your calls and txts unlike most strippers! lol

Happy Hunting
