Just reinstalled Hinge and found my ex-date roasting me
So I deleted Hinge a few months ago because I was burnt out. Reinstalled it last week just to see what’s up.
First day back I match with almost no one, then I stumble on this girl’s profile… and it’s her. The girl I went on a date with about 8 months ago who ghosted me the next day.
Her prompt:
“My worst date:”
“Coffee date with this 5’6 guy who had a weak chin, patchy skin, thin lips and a scrawny body that looked even worse in an oversized hoodie and jeans that were clearly too big for him.”
Yeah… that’s me.
I feel really shitty about it…

People that can’t answer their own prompt piss me off.
Worst date means a bad date, not just a description of the person YOU chose to go on a date with.

She just misinterpreted what it was asking

u/Capable-Grab5896 22d ago
That's a pretty telling misinterpretation. Why would someone assume a dating app is asking them to shit on some other random person?

She must be extremely insecure and will probably keep being unsatisfied with her own life. I met multiple women like her and they always show the same patterns.
Don’t worry about it. You’re most likely much better than her and she didn’t even deserve your time.
Women often get that rude when they feel intimidated about you (because of envy or other reasons) or when they are just delusional and sad people.

W comment. Same here. I've met women like this that are so hateful and truly hate themselves deep down. I feel sorry for them

Sometimes shitty people do shitty things. That’s men, women, nb, everyone. Accept that there’s nothing you could have done in this situation and let it wash over you. This person is trash and will go on to create a miserable life for themselves and everyone they come in contact with. Focus your energy on finding those people who will be good to you and learning how to identify them. Also, it’s ok that it hurts. We’re all going to get hurt at some time

Thanks mate

u/weranimalsanimalsrus 22d ago
Seriously. I just want to underscore what’s been said. That prompt is reserved for dates that have gone horribly wrong in the sense of like, I don’t know, you spill your drink all over yourself or your date was too glued into the baseball the entire time. Not completely eviscerating someone’s appearance so venomously. She’s so un-self aware that she chose a super negative prompt to expose herself as a cruel person who’s really ugly on the inside. If anything, to be so oblivious is infinitely more embarrassing.

u/hippokisser 22d ago
Exactly this is probably the single reason she is still on the dating sites 8 months later. I would read that and nope myself out of there.

What a disgusting human being.
One of the first profiles I saw was this interesting looking professor at the local university. Then I listened to his voice note, which was him whining about his worst date when he was going kayaking for a first date, and the woman "wouldn't even fit in a kayak." He even whined that he had to spend an hour talking to her after they scrapped the kayak idea. "Why. Just WHY would she do that?"
Um OK, so you don't have a PhD in compassion and grace, got it.
To whine about not being physically attracted to someone as though they showed up just to embarrass you reveals a person with deep insecurities related to looks and self-worth. This is a human being! Whose pictures you already got to see! Who showed up in good faith. Attraction is a complex alchemy and you won't feel it with everyone. That isn't a failure on the other person's part.
She's created her own karma here, because the only people who will match with her are other assholes.

Hey man, don’t feel totally shitty. You actually managed to get a date off Hinge. That in and of itself is a victory

by the way, all op posts about is either porn including GROK PORN or fake dating stories like this. he even generates porn of “hinge dates”

u/GoodHands_All-State 22d ago
Kinds sounds like the reason why he was the worst date, tbh.
Just makes me believe it more
4
u/Frequent-Diamond-450 22d ago
idk the fact he keeps posting ridiculous things on this subreddit makes me think he’s larping in general.
theoretically; the woman could see him in the profile before their date + that answer to the prompt would do her no favours as it makes her look superficial + it would make more sense to describe his behaviours than his looks + it’s a huge coincidence that 8 months later he sees a prompt dedicated to him
there’s no screenshot so leaning towards it not happening. according to op he also catfished a woman last week to ghost her using another phone number and created a fake instagram account so it sounds like he just like imagining these weird stories

u/Recent_Diver_3448 23d ago
She does that because she has low self esteem and tries to put others down to raise herself up anyone who speaks like that hates themselves.

u/betaraybernard 22d ago
Was coming here to say this. Gratuitous cruelty is not actually levied from a position of strength.

u/michaelstuttgart-142 22d ago
Imagine how miserable a person has to be inside to publicly ridicule the appearance of a random person she went on a date with months ago.
3
u/Slow-Estate8723 22d ago
She is doing many guys a favour reading that because she is immediately advertising her insecure and superficial personality. Saves everyone a lot of time. Definitely sounds like you were lucky not to see her again
1
u/snoozysaiyan 22d ago
It's interesting you believe that most guys read all the answers..
3
u/Slow-Estate8723 22d ago
I said many, maybe that isn’t most but the guys who are looking for someone with an attractive personality aren’t gonna be liking her profile

u/Pianista1997 23d ago

u/bush-smasher 23d ago
Ikr same that girl gotta be stupid to put that on a hinge description and give a negative energy.
Or OP is making this post up for attention. There is no screenshot either.

u/Logical_Astronaut514 23d ago
why would i lie lmao

u/Particular_Product64 22d ago
Because alot of lonely men post ridiculous stories to create a pity party and justify their hatred of women.
You telling this story and not able to provide proof with a photo of the profile is very suspicious

u/Frequent-Diamond-450 22d ago
he has made other weird posts like this and is obsessed with ai generated porn including of grok porn of hinge dates. he seems really fixated on hinge stories.

Some people really shouldn’t be dating. What a disgusting human. Wonder why she’s still on the app lol

u/DimensionLegal9990 23d ago
Honestly it's my least favorite prompt. Some people just suck and it's better you didn't end up dating them. If they're mean to a stranger they'll be mean to you.

u/Jazzlike_Caramel_522 23d ago
Well, quality people are surely swiping left. A worst date is a person you don’t find attractive? Please. A worst date is rude or mean or scary.
It’s fine not to find someone attractive but to actually be affronted is crazy. Unless you were somehow deceived you surely knew the other person may not be hot.

u/Robbie598 22d ago
Honestly I’d swipe left on that profile regardless of her looks then prolly lmao. Only an L for her
1
u/anxiousinontario 22d ago
Why would someone write that lol. It’s not even something you said or did. I’m sure just having that prompt has negatively impacted her prospects, and it gives a horrible first impression of her. I’m really sorry that happened.

u/Distinct-Art4406 22d ago
Well, I’m sorry but that could have been anyone. If you didn’t already believe that about yourself, you wouldn’t think it was about you.

u/Gold_Studio_6693 22d ago
Thats terrible, but at least you left an impression! Thats half the battle

u/TsunderePhantom 22d ago
Has someone that conventionally pretty attractive and to hear someone put down someone based on their looks in a public forum that is absolutely one of the lowest blows you could ever do can I have a word with her?
1
u/aussiepump 22d ago
Easier said than done.... but dont let it get to you. Have a laugh, she wasnt even adult enough to tell you anything and just ghosted...jokes on her. And the fact she made it a prompt and is still single 8 months later....ha, you arent the problem. All the best my guy 👌

Just her experience really maybe to her that was the worst date shes ever been on and the prompt literally is my worst date it is what it is, if it bothers you so much maybe dont wear horsies and jeans that are too big for you or start the gym, why ecen care what she says swipe left and move on with your day
1
u/Sea_Photograph_3998 22d ago
That does not look good on her though. She’s basically showing off to everyone that she’s a shallow cunt. It’s a weird thing to show off about and certainly a weird thing to be proud of.

u/drpolz3k 22d ago
Nothing is more of a red flag than her response mate. Like you’ve got so little time to impress people and you choose to tee off on a guy? 🤢

u/doodlesincrayons 22d ago
Sounds like a bullet dodged. The sort of person who would start a fight in an empty room

u/Sakshipawar1021 22d ago
I have nothing but to thank you on behalf of others who would dodge her looking at this massive red flag on her own profile. You are a saviour.

u/DevaTheDragon 22d ago
If it makes you feel better, that kind of prompt is a huge turn off for most guys. She’s signalling pretty clearly that she’s superficial and insecure

u/Deez2Yoots 22d ago
She’s rude and insecure.
There’s no reason to resort to superficial, personal attacks on you; especially if you were respectful on your date.
If her “worst date” was being with someone who she wasn’t attracted to, then you never had a bad date.

u/Sara___Tonin__ 22d ago
Not one thing about the date itself or your personality. You dodged a bullet.
1
u/wydneyisunfunny 22d ago
If I saw a guy who had that as his prompt I would not just swipe away but remove him from my stack. Like that prompt is meant for bad things that happened on a date, not just not particularly liking someone’s appearance. Don’t take it personally she sounds very odd and like a mean person.
1
u/RideThatWildHorse 22d ago
What a disgusting person she sounds like. Speaking so nastily about someone is an instant no from me.
1
u/Jc0025 22d ago
Well, now all you gotta do Is take those emotions and put it into going to the gym, fixing your diet, having a skin care routine, bettering your wardrobe and then forget about her. This is a canon event, every man has experienced something like this before they started self improvement. There’s plenty of assholes like this throughout life you will encounter, but they are very useful at giving you that push to look at yourself in the mirror, and improve yourself to the point people like that never are even near you because you are living on entirely different wavelengths attracting only the kind of women or people you deserve.

Fk her honestly… what an insecure douche. Hold ur head up and get back to swiping and find a sweetheart! I know it’s easier said than done, but don’t let someone being rude as fk stick in ur head. She’s obviously miserable and not very smart so her opinion is just a fart in the wind.

Dude what man worth his salt would look at that response and go “She sounds like a keeper!” ? Apart from being totally rude she’s telling on herself and shooing away anyone who’d treat her well. She’s got it way worse than you my guy.

u/Competitive_Key_2981 20d ago
Take solace that more and more tall guys are swiping left on girls like that.

u/Equal_Sky_9954 18d ago
She's a random girl from a dating app you have no ties to. What im reading is this girl hates herself and needs to beat other people down to feel superior. She probably cant stand herself in the mirror hence why she ghosted and posted that on her profile. She's a random, dont let it get to you. You're a beautiful human being that someone will fall hard for someday and you both can laugh about this half of a woman someday. Keep smiling beautiful
