[Music] I'll never forget the first time I use tinder it was 2015 during winter break when everyone was back home from college I figured since I didn't have a girlfriend and didn't have much going on why not try the app that everyone was talking about it was like 8 or 9 p.m. on a Thursday night which was peak hours in terms of activity for the app I downloaded the app onto my phone and it was time to set up my profile I spent a good 10 minutes browsing through my photo albums and found four flattering photos of myself that I thought would catch people's attention I wasn't really experienced with the whole witty funny tinder bio thing that guys are apparently supposed to do so I just wrote a few things about myself like that I was 6 feet tall played hockey at Penn State and loved to work out I swiped right for pretty much everyone just to see how many people would write swiped me back I got through the given hundred likes quicker than I even expected and didn't get a single match my self-esteem was now completely in the toilet I always thought of myself as really good-looking so I didn't understand how nobody could have liked me back after waiting forever for some kind of notification to come up on my screen I was considering just deleting the app to save my self-esteem but finally a single vibration from my phone along with the message congratulations you have a new match popped up on my phone overly excited I went back into the app and saw that I had matched with the most gorgeous girl I'd seen on the app she had four photos as well one in a bikini with a friend's one with two girls kissing her on either cheek one with her leaning on a brick wall and one that appeared to be taken at a college frat party she was twenty years old just like me and she went to Syracuse University iMessage started just a plain old hey with a smiley face ten seconds later she responded hey cutie I took a minute to think of something smart to say eventually I wrote something about her sorority and that I had a friend in the same sorority at my school or something lame like that she responded really quickly again this time saying oMG that's so cool and then a smiley face I was typing my response when she sent another message saying you're so cute and so close what are you doing tonight at this point I was excited and thought this app was easier than I thought it would be I responded quickly saying just watching elf you know pretty exciting stuff she replied back saying oMG no way me too you should come over and we can watch it together and then a winky face I told her I was down and asked for her number she gave it to me quickly and I waited a minute before texting her just so I wouldn't seem desperate when I texted her the message was sent as a text message indicating this person wasn't using the iMessage app I said hey once again she replied hey come now and then pasted an address the address was five miles from my house or 10 minutes which wasn't bad at all I told her I'm on my way before leaving I told my mom I was going out and left the address was on the quieter side of town not necessarily a nice kind of quiet I pulled up to the house it had a decent location privacy wise across the street were one of those huge pieces of land surrounded by trees that was dug out deep to collect water during rainfall and the neighboring houses were kind of spaced out a red flag went off in my head when I noticed two cars in the driveway I texted her saying I was there and she replied kay-kay go around back the front door is loud I replied are your parents home or something but she didn't answer this time I got out of the car and slowly walked around the house noticing there was no fence to separate the front yard from the back there was a window on the side of the house and as I passed it I realized there was an opening in the blinds someone was holding it up but as soon as I noticed the blinds fell back into place I texted her again saying was that you at the window no response this was a little creepy now I continued walking slowly to the backyard thinking that I could hear sounds coming from back there for example the brief sound of a yard chair scraping against the concrete I became so nervous to turn that corner into the backyard that I froze at the edge of the brick wall and just ever so gradually poked my head around the corner to see if anyone was in the backyard as far as I could tell nobody was back there so I walked to the back door it was a really old sliding glass door so I could partially see into the house another thing I realized just then that raised more red flags not a single light was on in the house you know what I told myself I'd text her one more time and if she didn't respond I was out of there I took out my phone and texted her saying I'm at the back door where are you she responded within 10 seconds saying come in I wasn't comfortable entering that house I decided to call her for the first time but after entering the number the screen said text now audio call text now is one of those iPhone apps that allow you to use a fake phone number for calls and texts that meant this whole time whoever this was was using a fake phone number however the most disturbing part of this was when I heard the sound of a ringtone coming from right behind the glass door as if somebody were leaning against the wall hiding and now as I looked more closely into the house I could see the glow from a phone screen right next to the door which confirmed that somebody was hiding there I didn't run I tried to draw as little attention as possible by simply walking back around the house in the opposite direction I came from to avoid being seen through the door when I was out of possible view I ran full speed to my car and drove home I didn't check my texts until I got back home I had 15 new messages waiting for me about 12 of them asking where'd you go why'd you leave come back and so on the last three were more disturbing though the first of the last three messages said I'm not actually a 20 year old girl but I'm sure you figured that out by now the next one was no laws were broken lol good luck and the last one was I know exactly what you look like and I have your number I blocked his fake number and went to report and unmatch him on tinder but he had already done that the whole thing was something straight out of a nightmare but luckily I never got any calls or texts from anyone suspicious and I was able to forget about it quickly I've used tender a few times since then but just for fun I've never actually made an effort to go out and meet anyone from the ever again I was on tinder a few months ago when I was bored I wasn't looking for anything in particular definitely not a relationship though just one of those times to see who swiped me for fun and having pointless chats plus there was always that chance that a girl would be down to meet up for the night and you know maybe I'd get lucky that didn't happen this night though I was the opposite of lucky my first 20 or so swipes were full of matches I sent corny pick-up lines to a few of them that I found attractive however there was one girl who messaged me first her name was Michelle she was a 23 year old blonde she was a solid 9 out of 10 almost unrealistically attractive so the fact that she said hey first was pretty intoxicating and I was a little intoxicated quite literally already she was close to and eventually things were going so smoothly that I decided to try and be ballsy and turned the conversation sexual that went smoothly as well so I escalated things even more by getting her number and then texting her to try and set something up that same night to my surprise and delight she seemed really willing but she wanted to meet out somewhere and hang out first before going back to her place I was fine with that and so she seemed to take charge and set up a time and place to meet she said she wanted to hang in a small park by her house first at 10 o'clock it was a little odd but I was down I literally counted the minutes until around 9:45 when I decided it was time to leave before leaving I sent a quick confirmation text and she said she was still down to meet the drive to this small residential park was maybe ten minutes so I got there a little early I walked over to the swing set the exact point where she wanted to meet I didn't want to let her know I was early because I thought that might make me seem needy or anxious so I waited until exactly 10:00 or two on the dot to text her saying I was there this was when she stopped responding 1005 1010 sitting there waiting with no response of course at first I figured she was driving and couldn't check her phone but as the minutes passed that idea started to become less realistic and the idea that she flaked was becoming more realistic the playground area was surrounded by trees in fact this whole park was very woodsy and having been a weeknight nobody was out and about at this time so honestly it was kind of creepy sitting in that Park alone the only reason I could see was because of the motion detecting light mounted onto the small bathroom Shack in one direction the park turned to complete woods for miles while in the other direction beyond a few trees was the neighborhood road I was sitting on the swing pushing back and forth and boredom and disappointment when I froze the sounds of the squeaky metal swing chain stops allowing me to hear something echo out from the little bathroom shack it sounded like you know a typical sound you'd expect to hear from inside one of those bathrooms like somebody pressing down on the handle of the paper towel dispenser or something like that what I'm trying to say it sounded intentional meaning someone might have been in there now this wouldn't be a completely strange thing after all it's a public park only I would have thought that they would lock the bathrooms up at this hour and who else would actually be in this tiny Park at 10:15 on a weeknight then I suddenly felt the vibration in my pocket so excited I whipped out the phone and saw a new text from Michelle the text said exactly this hey just got here come into the bathroom I have a surprise for you my heart dropped as I read this I felt butterflies in my stomach not like an innocent nervousness more like a disturbed and freaked out feeling my thumbs were hovering over the phone as I was conjuring up something to type in response then she sent another text saying get off the swing and come here as I read the text I looked up to the tiny bathroom building and opened my mouth almost ready to scream when I saw half of a person's face peering out from the entrance from one of the bathrooms leering over to me on the swing only for maybe half a second did I actually see a good portion of their face though because they slowly moved out of sight to be honest in the heat of the moment I couldn't even tell if it was a male or female but I knew something bad was going on and I knew I was disturbed as hell by the situation so I got off the swing quietly and tiptoed away from the playground when I was far enough away I ran for it back to my car that run back to my car itself was one of the most horrific experiences of my life because I had the constant fear of somebody chasing me in the back of my mind as soon as I locked my car I was able to pause for a breather but up until that point nothing compared to the gut-wrenching fear that I felt when I took one last look into the park and saw a grown man emerge from the trees running towards my car I turned the key in the ignition and practically threw the car in drive before it was even fully started when I was halfway down the road and looked back there was nobody in the streets when I pulled into my driveway I sat there for 10 minutes thinking and reflecting I felt like I had become a changed person at that moment like I knew what it truly felt like to appreciate life after having my life threatened I deleted my tinder account and then deleted the app I didn't tell any of my family members besides my older brother I've had a girlfriend for the past two months so luckily I don't even have to think about using that app anymore [Music] [Music]
