Let's not kid ourselves: Tinder dates are hard regardless of your gender.
The chances of ending up sitting across from someone who is nothing like you thought they would be (whether that's your own fault for assuming or theirs for straight-up bending the truth doesn't really matter) are high, but hey, that's the name of the game.
Even if it turns out you're not all that into her once you do meet, consider the fact that she might feel the same way — gasp! — and make the best of your outing. Or, at the very least, try to avoid becoming the guy she's going to laugh about with her friends and immediately add to her 'Terrible Dates From Hell' pile.
By following the advice offered up in Michelle Markowitz's latest video, you can enjoy a successful Tinder date, despite the fact that you might not be feeling it, but especially if you want things to end well.
Created with Stephen Parkhurst and David Ross, 'Every Guy You Meet On Tinder (In Under Three Minutes)' should be considered a satirical Tinder dating etiquette cheat sheet filled with truths. Lesson No.1, for example: Checking Tinder while on a Tinder date is not going to be the best idea you've ever had.
Most importantly, though, please don't tell anyone you work in finance. Ever. Especially if you actually work in finance.
