When it comes to the wild west of dating apps, often an opening message can be the decider on whether or not your life can change forever and you’re able to find the love of your life. Well, so I’m told anyway. 

However, Bumble has an ace up its sleeve. The app’s unique selling point is that the females must message the males first. Today, there’s a bold stereotype that in these scenarios men should message first. So, as a male, I’m here to discuss what life is like when the shoes are on the other foot.

If you had to eradicate lemons or limes from existence, which would it be? 

The age-old question, lemon or limes. This message genuinely had me stumped. The obvious answer is limes right? But then what happens to the green skittle, or the green starbursts, can you tell I have a sweet tooth? However, I do think the obvious answer is the right answer in this scenario… I’m going for limes to be eradicated.  

When you’re having a bad day, what’s your go-to song that makes you feel better?

Nothing Georgia, when I’m sad, I listen to sad music. I want to feel that pain. Although, when I’m happy I also listen to sad music. Look, I’m a Coldplay fan, I’m used to sad songs.

Evening handsome 

Stop it you.

Hey

*unmatches*

Important questions first! Kiss, marry or kill between salsa, guac and queso??

As a representative of the fussy eater community, I’d have to take a leaf out of Ted Bundy’s playbook here… KILL KILL KILL!

Do I know you?

Ahhh the classic, ‘mate matches you on a dating app and sends you the same tiresome message just because it’s funny you’ve spotted them on an app’. Can you tell I don’t get many matches?

C_ddles and K_sses? Oh sorry, the U and I are missing

Be right back, I’m off to throw up my alphabeti spaghetti.

Look, I’ve got a karaoke machine with your name written all over it.

Now this sounds like a bit of me…

Now I’m curious, what’s your go-to karaoke song

Do I really give that much of a karaoke vibe????? If so, is that a good thing? If not, how do I stop giving this off? Please help, I’m insecure. But it’s Viva la Vida, Coldplay fan you see.

Hey, what’s someone like you doing on here x

Probably for the same reason as you Steph. I’m single, alone, with zero self-confidence to approach a woman in person, so have to rely on you to do it for me? What about yourself?

Hello:) Bumble told me we were a good match, have to see if it’s right or not ahah x

Due to the fact that you typed ‘ahah’ and probably didn’t even break into a smile… We’re probably not, no.

What’s something you’re terrible at? Mines getting past the talking stage.

Well, that’s a great start. At least we’re not trying to start talking are we????
