To ask him out or feel him out?

A friend of two of my friends showed up on my Tinder. We follow each other on twitter and like each others stuff sometimes. I didn't know whether to swipe left or right in case I make things awkward so I kind of avoided it until he disappeared 😂

I DM'd him today under the guise of something else and he sent quite a long reply back. I don't think he liked me on Tinder, possibly for the same reason I didn't. Should I jokingly ask if I showed up on his Tinder to gage his response? Thing is, I would've swiped right...

Remember though, if you swipe right they won't know unless they also swipe right which means there's nothing to be embarrassed about because you've both done the same!

So worrying about making it awkward was daft Grin

I’d have just swiped right.

If he swiped right too, then all good.

If he swiped left, he would’ve never known that you swiped right. So no awkwardness.

So basically... it's too late? Grin

Bringing it up on twitter would probably just make me sound stupid and very not smooth. I was surprised by another of my followers that swipes right on me. He's actually a British actor...! But I'm not interested Grin

Bloody well ask him out for a drink!

MargaretMorris · 25/09/2021 20:07

Ooh @Anothermothernamegame I would quite like to! Grin

Would need to get my courage up though!

How do you know this friend of two months?

I think it's possible to get another chance if you delete tinder entirely and then make it again he should come up Smile
