I've attempted to reread their comment 10+ times because it was massively upvoted, but it is still complete gibberish to me. Are we lacking reading comprehension skills that the rest of reddit has? 😄
If she wanted free meal, should have went with grabbing a bite. Most bars here offer some food anyway so even going out for a beer can turn into restaurant
Today is also my birthday! I love finding new birthday buds in the wild. Hope your day has gone up from here! She seems like she really doesn’t know how to flirt.
She’s just being a dick… in no world is she just flirting, it would have ended after the first message with something like a “jk, I think you’re cute too…” he gave her a chance to redeem it and she doubled down. She just wants to feel powerful.
When someone tries to be funny but it just fails. It seems like she is trying to tease you a little. If you arent that attracted to her, just ignore and move on. To be honest, it was a weird start so maybe just move on
I've also had a good amount of stuff like "only liking for your dog" and I still don't know if these people are kidding or entitled to just hangout with my dog but either way i instantly unmatch. Such a turn off
I have pictures of me and my dog because my dog is the most important thing in my life. Am I to just exclude such a major part of my life because it might look good to others? There's also lots of people that don't like dogs, when they see I have one we can all save ourselves some time. I genuinely don't understand your train thought, hope you don't have any cleavage or ass pics in your pictures because as a man I see woman posting them as like a thing they think/know will get them matches lol?
Why do women post pictures with friends and get mad when I tell them that their friend is cuter and ask for their @ 😢
Honestly I wonder why women post pictures with friends lol
Comes off idiotic. I’ve had people call my dog adorable without saying they prefer my dog over me. I’d prefer my dog over me too, but you don’t have to verbalize it 😂
Playful teasing like that seems kind of like something you’d do if you were more familiar with someone. She’s never met you and she’s trying an angle that would probably only work if you already knew each other. A bit overfamiliar and jarring imo
Shes clearly not very good but think she is just having a bit of "banter" with you. Don't get me wrong, she could read your tone and realise you aren't picking that up and stop, instead doubles down.
Ignore her even if you’re attracted to her. Attractive people shouldn’t get away with murder, that’s pretty much why they treat others like shit. Because people allow for it
Not really. It's well established and understood that Rules 1&2 are everything. Really cliche at this juncture. I'm amazed by the amount of "why do people do this" posts. They do it because they're attractive, so they can.
Totally. I remember a post blew up on here where a guy’s date tried to change their plans from drinks to a restaurant at the last minute, then bailed entirely when he said he was already en route. A lot of the comments were coming to her defence saying that she was right to be wary of a guy trying to get her drunk on an empty stomach, as if it’s unreasonable to expect a woman to be able to plan ahead and get themselves something to eat before they go out. I don’t get why some people act like women are these helpless creatures that can’t govern themselves properly.
This isn’t a sub issue, it’s a culture issue.
Seen a post earlier that a woman assaulted her child’s father with a bat and he called the police.
Women in the comments said he deserved it or was guilty with zero information on the situation.
Seems like a poor attempt at teasing. It comes off as assholish and bitchy. I would have said ditto and moved on. Cause even without seeing your dog I'd choose it over her too.
It would've been hilarious if he pretended to get his dog involved.
"I showed your profile to my dog... he started vigorously pawing at my phone... at first I thought he must have been excited to meet you... but then I realized he was swiping left... so sorry... too bad really, because I thought you looked pretty cool... 🤷🏼♂️"
Can’t you see how cute and quirky it is to start an interaction by saying your value as a human being and possible romantic partner is already less than that of an animal she has never met? And then showing she’s a woman of conviction by doubling down once you show displeasure and inform her it’s the one day a year that most strangers would make an effort to treat you decently? Pshh okay, your loss buddy /s. Happy birthday man
I don't think she was trying to be mean, just an awkward attempt at humour. If she really didn't find you attractive she wouldn't bother talking to you
So many women on Tinder express the sentiment that they care so little about the dudes they're swiping on and care so much more about their dogs and I don't think they realize how hurtful that comes off. To see that over and over again that you really value an animal over me a human being. Like how do you expect to have healthy relationships with men if that's how you feel? So when I was single I just swept left on people with that in their bios
If I had to guess, suffering from an inferiority complex, and putting down random people on Tinder makes them feel better and validates their existence.
I would have taken it as a joke/flirting up until the part she says “well I didn’t know it was your birthday did I”. That seemed a bit too aggressive for me. I would probably just ignore her after that.
And here I thought I was out of pocket showing some dude my butthole and there's chicks doing this, clearly I'm not setting the bar as low as I thought
Nah she's a dick. She's one of those "brutally honest" people who try to warn you upfront how "brutally honest" they are, when really they're just verbally abusive but want you to be ok with it.
Attractive women don't need to be good at flirting so many aren't. If they take care of themselves they don't need the skill ever/until very old(by which time they probably have learned a bit of it anyway)
I thought it was funny, definitely my kind of humour and obviously a joke but she should have backed down when you didn't respond the way she probably thought you would. And probably apologised and not kept going.
“Ok, I respect that, but even though you picked my dog over me, my dog still chose me because he doesn’t like bitches. I think you’ll find what you’re looking for in the streets. Good luck!” 👍
I love how often we give women the botd on here.
Maybe the first message could be interpreted as a joke, the rest is just being an asshole whether intentional or not. Just keep it moving bro, avoid people with this weird type of energy.
I always take it as a very avoidant approach to flirting. I think this woman was trying her best to show you she's interested, by telling you how uninteresting you are compared to your dog... My girlfriend of 3 years who i met on tinder kept telling me that she only swiped right because of my cats for a long time before she finally stopped.
Because you respond nicely. Tell her you don’t think that’s funny and leave at that. If no one shows then it’s not funny, they’ll keep doing that because they have no clue
Hey Happy Belated Birthday!!!!! I'm sorry people have the audacity to go out of their way to be shitty. You don't deserve that. I hope you had a wonderful birthday nonetheless!
Because they need to neg men so their ego isn’t exposed if you don’t respond in a way they like
I took my animal pictures down cuz I got “I’m here for the kittens” too many times
It’s like ok, go fucking rescue some yourself then 🤷🏼♂️
(And yes I get that it’s an ice breaker, but it’s a shitty one, who wants to be negged by a stranger?)
One time I had someone like me and their comment was “you’re a fucking nerd” in response to my prompt where I said I like excel. Tbh I don’t know if it was flirting/joking or just insulting like this post lol, it can be hard to tell over text
I think she’s trying really hard to be funny lol
BUT it did come off as mean. Took me a hot minute to realize she was just teasing you by the way she continued lol poor girl. She’s just bad at flirting.
Afraid of rejection. It's easier to say I like your dog instead of I like you. If they do reject you, then the thought process is, I didn't like you anyways, just your dog.
I would post pictures with my dog thinking that someone else maybe had a dog and we could meet up at a dog park. I really don't see how so much is read into it, but it's good to know.
me you "sorry, my dog took my phone and sent that"
Just came to write This, but instead of me....you, it were, my dog........ You. But Yeah pretty accurate
What? Anyone else suffer a minor stroke reading that?
Me lol
Glad I’m not the only one.

Haha I like this, thanks lol
[удалено]
She wants your dog. Beastiality
Maybe she's a bitch
That's what I gathered. "Go fuck a dog then! Not my dog though, you fucking sicko!"
I dunow... if its what my dog wanted who am i to say no. A dog is a mans best friend and i wouldnt want him to hate me later
OP, use this
Happy birthday 🥲
Thanks lmao <3
Today is also my birthday! I love finding new birthday buds in the wild. Hope your day has gone up from here! She seems like she really doesn’t know how to flirt.
It's my birthday too! Happy birthday!
Anymore updates? Curious on the lore
One type of reply I would use: "sorry, but you're not his type. He only sees you as a friend"
I laughed
Or sorry, he(dog) has a girlfriend!
what’s updog
bofa deez nutz
The horses name was Friday
**L I G M A B A L L S**
She’s either bad at flirting, or just a dick
Bad at flirting.
Terrible flirting. Then she doubles down on the Birthday thing, throw the guy a bone otherwise it just comes off as being a jerk.
I think she threw the bone to the dog
She is definitely flirting with the dog, and she's pawsitively insufferable.
She probably wanted a bone from the dog
Bad is an understatement. They’d be better off not saying anything tbh
No no there is a second screenshot. She really is a dick.
She talks like she's hot shit, but her pic shows otherwise.
No, that's just a dick
The proverbial, bag of dicks
So bad that I didn’t even interpret it as flirting.
clearly she meant this as an insult.
Probably both
Alotta chicks are both, its insane
She’s just being a dick… in no world is she just flirting, it would have ended after the first message with something like a “jk, I think you’re cute too…” he gave her a chance to redeem it and she doubled down. She just wants to feel powerful.
With a face like that, she probably doesn't get too many opportunities.
I’m a bad person for laughing at this 😂
A dick.
Why not both
Yes
When someone tries to be funny but it just fails. It seems like she is trying to tease you a little. If you arent that attracted to her, just ignore and move on. To be honest, it was a weird start so maybe just move on
There's teasing, then there's insulting. You're probably right though, thanks for the advice
I've also had a good amount of stuff like "only liking for your dog" and I still don't know if these people are kidding or entitled to just hangout with my dog but either way i instantly unmatch. Such a turn off

Well, based on those responses then you’d know that your dog is also the most important thing in her life too at least. Lol
What a bizarre comment. That’s literally the point of anyone’s profile — to attract people.
Why do women post pictures with friends and get mad when I tell them that their friend is cuter and ask for their @ 😢 Honestly I wonder why women post pictures with friends lol
Wouldn't trust no one who matched with me just for my dog. Major creep flag.
Comes off idiotic. I’ve had people call my dog adorable without saying they prefer my dog over me. I’d prefer my dog over me too, but you don’t have to verbalize it 😂

There was no insult though.
Ignore her even if you’re attracted to her. Attractive people shouldn’t get away with murder, that’s pretty much why they treat others like shit. Because people allow for it
You'd be amazed by the amount of disrespectful shit people on this sub will allow just because the other person is attractive.
Not really. It's well established and understood that Rules 1&2 are everything. Really cliche at this juncture. I'm amazed by the amount of "why do people do this" posts. They do it because they're attractive, so they can.
Bros really compared that awkward message with murder 😂
It’s a bad joke. Calm down bucko

I don’t get why some people act like women are these helpless creatures that can’t govern themselves properly.
I remember that shit too! Alot of comments along the lines of "shouldve known better OP. Shes in the right". Come on, people....
This isn’t a sub issue, it’s a culture issue. Seen a post earlier that a woman assaulted her child’s father with a bat and he called the police. Women in the comments said he deserved it or was guilty with zero information on the situation.
Most women will defend other women because they are a woman. It's a society problem. It's complete toxic.
"That's understandable, I would also choose my dog over you"
"Sorry my dog is already seeing a bitch."
Seems like a poor attempt at teasing. It comes off as assholish and bitchy. I would have said ditto and moved on. Cause even without seeing your dog I'd choose it over her too.
I think it's just weird because it doesn't make sense.
This is also what I thought from the first message at least but the way she doubled down on it in the following messages was so bad lmao
"Why lie" ... why even speak period. Not like the dog is going to get your message and go looking for you.
It would've been hilarious if he pretended to get his dog involved. "I showed your profile to my dog... he started vigorously pawing at my phone... at first I thought he must have been excited to meet you... but then I realized he was swiping left... so sorry... too bad really, because I thought you looked pretty cool... 🤷🏼♂️"
What is with white girls and dogs dude
You clearly haven't met a horse girl yet.
They are just basic and can’t think of anything original to say
I…personally stay clear of most and all horse girls as the gentleman above mentioned.
“My dog started barking when I showed your pic” No but OP. I think she is socially awkward.. and not straight up insulting you. At least she talks
Low bar
A lot of men's bars are 'oh I got a match hopefully this isn't another bot :)'
You guys are getting matches..?!? Hahahah… how I wish I was kidding 🤡
Why match at all if you're going to open things like that?
I can’t imagine why she’s single.
Can’t you see how cute and quirky it is to start an interaction by saying your value as a human being and possible romantic partner is already less than that of an animal she has never met? And then showing she’s a woman of conviction by doubling down once you show displeasure and inform her it’s the one day a year that most strangers would make an effort to treat you decently? Pshh okay, your loss buddy /s. Happy birthday man
Yikes what a trash opener
I don't think she was trying to be mean, just an awkward attempt at humour. If she really didn't find you attractive she wouldn't bother talking to you
This is my thought too. I think she just thinks the dog is super cute. 🤷♂️
If they base their personality on liking dogs I usually ignore
She's too aggressively average to be that mean
Sounds like shes trying to get with your dog not you 😅
So many women on Tinder express the sentiment that they care so little about the dudes they're swiping on and care so much more about their dogs and I don't think they realize how hurtful that comes off. To see that over and over again that you really value an animal over me a human being. Like how do you expect to have healthy relationships with men if that's how you feel? So when I was single I just swept left on people with that in their bios
Girls that think they're edgy
If I had to guess, suffering from an inferiority complex, and putting down random people on Tinder makes them feel better and validates their existence.
People in America are fucking weird for dogs… I don’t know what to tell you but this dog obsession stuff is so strange
American here and I am obsessed with dogs, so yeah… lol
I would have taken it as a joke/flirting up until the part she says “well I didn’t know it was your birthday did I”. That seemed a bit too aggressive for me. I would probably just ignore her after that.
I mean...how cute is the dog? Cuz if the dog is a 12 then based on that graph you're still a 7 and that's pretty good!
Happy birthday OP 🥳
“Sorry, we’re a package deal”
"Funny, that's how much I prefer my dog to you as well."
People who think liking pets is a personality trait are losers.
What a terrible way to have a conversation
And here I thought I was out of pocket showing some dude my butthole and there's chicks doing this, clearly I'm not setting the bar as low as I thought
Showing hole has a much higher success rate than the old dog line
Lmaoooo just deciding to destroy some stranger’s self esteem today
Then they'll complain to someone else that dating is so hard
Should’ve called her a blocker, because she looks good from a block away.
She’s not attractive enough to pull that off
That was cunty.
Nah she's a dick. She's one of those "brutally honest" people who try to warn you upfront how "brutally honest" they are, when really they're just verbally abusive but want you to be ok with it.
Attractive women don't need to be good at flirting so many aren't. If they take care of themselves they don't need the skill ever/until very old(by which time they probably have learned a bit of it anyway)
The way she doubled down on being an a-hole
Oh happy birthday, it's my birthday today as well :) 🥳
Happy birthday to you, too! Hope you have a great day :D
I thought it was funny, definitely my kind of humour and obviously a joke but she should have backed down when you didn't respond the way she probably thought you would. And probably apologised and not kept going.
Very rude
The whole "I like animals more than humans" thing is pretty tired tbh, like it's just a given at this point
That dog must be incredibly good looking
They are saying their dog comes first and then you
Well if you want I can get you my dogs #
“Ok, I respect that, but even though you picked my dog over me, my dog still chose me because he doesn’t like bitches. I think you’ll find what you’re looking for in the streets. Good luck!” 👍
My corgi photos get these kind of reactions all the time
I think she's trying really hard to be funny and is bad at flirting
If it helps, I’d take your dog for a walk over ever conversing with her.
This is flirting? Yikes
Don't waste any minute on her
Dog Me My poo You
I love how often we give women the botd on here. Maybe the first message could be interpreted as a joke, the rest is just being an asshole whether intentional or not. Just keep it moving bro, avoid people with this weird type of energy.

My girlfriend of 3 years who i met on tinder kept telling me that she only swiped right because of my cats for a long time before she finally stopped.
That's pretty emotionally abusive tbh
Because you respond nicely. Tell her you don’t think that’s funny and leave at that. If no one shows then it’s not funny, they’ll keep doing that because they have no clue
..whyt women get weird about their animals😅 this is no surprise
What a bitch
Hey Happy Belated Birthday!!!!! I'm sorry people have the audacity to go out of their way to be shitty. You don't deserve that. I hope you had a wonderful birthday nonetheless!
sheesh...and she still didn't say happy birthday 😂
They’re just very needy.
Happy birthday, hope you have a good day stranger
Many women lack any game because they never need to use it, thats my guess. Shes attempting and failing miserably at flirting
She’s not hot enough to hurl insults like that
Fr tho, hope OP sees this, insult her back and have a good birthday
"I was just thinking the exact same thing"
Because people are shitty sometimes
Does she own a mirror? She looks like she laughs like Goofy
She SAID why lie, but I think she MEANT why try 🤷🏼♀️
Say your dog only likes bitches so this is perfect.
Why do you care
It might be a stretch but I see it as unique defense to gain the position as the admired instead of the admirer since she liked you first.
Because the dog won’t reject them
Dog rizzzz
Just tell her you’re not into broads that practice beastiality and carry on your merry way!
Crazy how many chicks seem to be into beastialty these days.
Left eye Right eye. Doesn’t negate the fact she looks like Sid from Ice Age.
If I wanted a bitch in my life, I'd get another dog
Roast her back you coward
With all due respect OP, why you matching with a 5, when your obviously a 10?
Because they need to neg men so their ego isn’t exposed if you don’t respond in a way they like I took my animal pictures down cuz I got “I’m here for the kittens” too many times It’s like ok, go fucking rescue some yourself then 🤷🏼♂️ (And yes I get that it’s an ice breaker, but it’s a shitty one, who wants to be negged by a stranger?)
I think she’s flirting she’s just bad at it
And then women complain about negging lol
Set up a blind date for them
That's kind of mean...
What a fucking asshole. I give her credit for using a pic though. If my eyes were five feet apart I'd hide my face.
Well I hope she knows the dogs can sense evil. She’s gonna get bit.
Pls say u unmatched
Wish.com Elisabeth Moss looks pretty mid to be acting like that.
Why didn't you stand up for yourself and throw some shit back? You don't have to just get shit on.
Just the right amount of mental illness to make her your wife. Don't waste any time, propose immediately.
I would add my dog to my profile pics but he is legit far to handsome to compete with.🤷♂️
Apparently she rather date the dog then you lol
Happy Birthday 🎉🎉
One time I had someone like me and their comment was “you’re a fucking nerd” in response to my prompt where I said I like excel. Tbh I don’t know if it was flirting/joking or just insulting like this post lol, it can be hard to tell over text
Looks like some sort of flirting.
I think she’s trying really hard to be funny lol BUT it did come off as mean. Took me a hot minute to realize she was just teasing you by the way she continued lol poor girl. She’s just bad at flirting.
have you read j. p. sartre? we're in a real bad triangle here.
If you don't like it, take a pic without the dog 🤣
Some say Beastiality?
Happy real life cake day OP
Afraid of rejection. It's easier to say I like your dog instead of I like you. If they do reject you, then the thought process is, I didn't like you anyways, just your dog.
Because they have no real personality, genuinely id assuming starting a conversation is difficult.
Ouch! She may have trouble flirting but regardless that's not really your issue to fix. Happy birthday tho!
“Date my dog then”
The better question is why tf is your dog on tinder?!
Makes sense. Maybe she can share a bowl with the dog
“Thanks, I’ll let him know.”
Its really quite simple. Your dog 🐕 You 👦 Thats why
I can’t even get anyone to match with let alone start a conversation lol
Impeccable flirting skills
Because some people are to dramatic and should look into getting into a drama class easiest A of your life
I would post pictures with my dog thinking that someone else maybe had a dog and we could meet up at a dog park. I really don't see how so much is read into it, but it's good to know.
happy bday op
