This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Things like eHarmony, Match, etc. they generally have a lot more information about potential matches and there's usually a back and forth over a period of time.

I know several people that met spouses on them.I used them with some success.

The friends that used Tinder the choice to swipe is 99% based on looks alone. And things usually move very fast.

Not saying you can't meet long term interest on Tinder or can't have a hook up on others. But they have pretty defined goal differences and the people that use them also.

Disclaimer: I'm a strong proponent of people being happy and doing right for them. I make no judgements.
