dating

We love nothing more than a good old fashioned language translation fail. Languages can be wildly confusing, and sometimes that goes on to inspire absolutely hilarious misunderstandings between people that would otherwise be getting along just fine. In this case though, we learn that this particular misunderstanding was the straw that broke the camel's back, and apparently this guy was a dang "side guy." 

You never know what you're going to find behind the next "right swipe" in the wild world of Tinder. Some people that use the app are actually able to strike up a reasonable conversation that gives way to a legitimate relationship on down the road. Other folks use the app to try out the best and worst of their pickup lines that they have on hand. The following collection of moments from Tinder have some wins, fails, and just generally shameless one-liners. 

Dave is obviously a very smart man. But with that being said, just picture the scenario of Karen suing. Judge could sure have a nice laugh out of that one. 

You never know what lurks behind that next right swipe. You might run right into an extra cheesy pickup line, or maybe someone who has forfeited all their social decency while using the app. Yes, intentional immaturity and crude one liners would seem to be a common pattern amongst Tinder users. Every now and again people take it seriously and actually get somewhere. Or, even better their cheesy pickup lines actually end up working. 

Man oh man, nothing can bring the blood to a boil like having to deal with family members dishing out their toxic opinions on matters they were never asked to get involved with in the first place. This particular scenario involves a brother asking the morality defenders of Reddit's AITA community whether or not he was in the wrong for telling his sister to lower her dating standards based off the fact that she's a single mother. 

It's hilarious how one simple and completely innocent misunderstanding can go on to inspire quite the hilarious chain of events. In this particular scenario, this guy misunderstood his girlfriend's dad when they were having a conversation, and basically ended up asking the poor guy if he could have his blessing to cheat on his daughter. At least they were all able to have a good laugh about it after the fact. 

We're not trying to promote infidelity or try to make anyone better at cheating on their spouse, but who in their right mind leaves a paper trail? It seems like if you wanted to get away with this sort of thing, you'd try not to leave official evidence of your extra-marital affairs. For a cheater brought to justice, here's someone who left their cheating ex on the top of a mountain.

It sounds like this relationship was doomed from the start. All she did was leave her new neighbor her number on a note, in cursive, and that was apparently enough to qualify as the straw that broke the camel's back. Honestly, this might be the ideal outcome The fact that the potential ex wouldn't even consider talking to their neighbor is a definite red flag. 

Talk about some wild and outlandish dating etiquette. Real or not, it's unfortunate to consider the realistic possibility that many human beings have encountered a scenario like this while out navigating the dating world. Some people are in fact out there just looking to get a free meal. 

And people say romance is dead? This guy must've been at the forefront of people rolling out PowerPoint presentations on Tinder to try and impress their matches, because this particular presentation is A+ work. He really sealed the deal when he brought up the fact that his cat might not be able to handle her leaving. 

This dude asked the people of Reddit whether or not he was in the wrong for abandoning his girlfriend on top of a mountain, because he had to catch the game. A game we might add that was a Jets game. And he just watched it in the car. Seems like he could've benefited from keeping his cool, being patient, and also recognizing that the big "emotional outburst" was entirely created by him. 

If you've ever felt like the struggle is painfully real for you when it comes to identifying flirting, this quick Tumblr thread is here to reassure you that you are not alone. No, it turns out that studies have been conducted showing that humans are generally challenged when it comes to being able to identify actual flirting signals. Yeah, we're not out here reading minds. Facial expressions, underlying social habits of different individuals in different situations make for a disorienting melting pot, where it's pretty much impossible to tell what's going on. 

Check out some more gold from Tumblr with this Tumblr post about humans' willful ignorance. We're terribly forgetful creatures. 

It's hard to identify the signs, sometimes. Yes, sometimes we mistake perfectly innocent tomfoolery for romantic advances. It's okay though, many of us can get caught up in that confusion at one point or another. Check out another gem from Tumblr with this Tumblr thread about hilarious drama club mishaps.

They're like pickup lines but only used for breakups. Nobody was holding back in this particular AskReddit thread. Can't say that we're surprised. People can get pretty dang ruthless when anger and despair are through the roof, and heartbreak's taken the mic to air out its grievances in clever ways. 

Man, oh, man, this dude is a walking red flag. He bothers his ex about getting help during a rough time, and when she actually pulls through and gets the dude a giant pizza, he pitches a fit! Truly surreal. Check out another case of painfully obnoxious entitlement with this rude choosing beggar who got more than he bargained for.

What a fine example of how those liars of the world just can't argue with that sweet video evidence. This girl was a real piece of work. Fortunately, the pro revenge was successful.
